Fixed Seat Post - Permobil Street Service Manual

Fixed seat post

Service position
The seat post has a service position that makes it
easier to service and repair the wheelchair.
1. Pull out the catch that locks the seat post's
fixed height position. With the catch pulled out,
turn it through 90°.
2. Raise the seat to the service position. Turn the
catch back through 90° so that it can move in
and lock the seat in the service position.
Ensure that the catch is fully pressed in and
locking the seat in the service position. The seat
must not be subjected to load and the wheelchair
must not be driven with the seat post in the service
position.
If the wheelchair is transported with the seat post
in the service position, the position of the seat post
must be secured with a screw (M5). See the
figure.
WARNING
Raise and hold the seat firmly when the service position
catch is pulled out. Otherwise the seat may fall fast to the
normal position, causing personal injury.
Ensure that the catch is fully pressed in and locking the seat in
the service position.

not be driven with the seat post in the service position.
