COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS

After becoming familiar with your power chair's operation, you may find the need to make some adjustments to
increase your comfort, such as seat height and angle, armrest width, armrest angle and height, foot platform
height, depth, and angle, and controller position.
NOTE: If your power chair is equipped with a Specialty Seat, Synergy Seat, or TRU-Balance Power Position-
ing System, refer to the seat adjustment information contained in separate manuals. If your power chair is
equipped with a contoured seating system, refer to the following information.
WARNING! The centre of gravity of your power chair was factory set to a position that meets the
needs of the demographic majority of users. Your Quantum Rehab Provider has evaluated your
power chair and made any necessary adjustments to suit your specific requirements. Do not
change your seating configuration without first contacting Pride Mobility Products or your
Quantum Rehab Provider.
WARNING! Some power chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry
them. Please refer to the specifications table for specific component weights before you
disassemble the power chair.
WARNING! Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.

Seat Height and Seat Angle Adjustment

You can change the seat height to one of three positions
by raising the front and rear trapeze bars. If you raise
or lower only one trapeze bar (front or rear), you can
also change the seat base angle (dump).
To change the seat height:
1. Turn off the power to the controller.
2. Make sure the power chair is in drive mode.
3. Unplug the controller connector(s) from the power
base. See figure 7.
4. Flip up the seat latch safety. See figure 11.
5. Squeeze the seat latch and release the seat from the
front trapeze bar.
6. Slide the seat forward and remove it from the
power base.
7. Remove the hardware that attaches the trapeze bars
to the seat interface weldments. See figure 15.
8. Move the trapeze bars up or down to the desired
height.
NOTE: Change the seat dump by raising or lowering
only one trapeze bar (front or rear).
