Anti-Tip Wheels
The anti-tip wheels are designed to give your power chair
increased stability on rough surfaces. The anti-tip wheels
are preset at the factory for smooth surfaces or indoor
use only. If you plan on using your power chair on rough
surfaces, it may be necessary to adjust the anti-tip wheels
to better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels may need
adjustment if the following occurs:
! When coming to a stop, your power chair tips for-
ward excessively.
! The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.
WARNING! Consult your authorised
Pride Dealer before attempting to
change the anti-tip wheel height!
Changing the anti-tip wheel height
affects handling under acceleration!
WARNING! The higher you raise the anti-tip wheels, the more you increase your power chair's
tendency to tilt forward while decelerating. You can compensate for this by having your authorised
Pride Dealer make a small adjustment to the pre-programmed deceleration setting in the controller
or by moving the seat assembly farther to the back of your power chair.
PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti-tip wheels.
NOTE: Each drive tyre (pneumatic only) must be inflated to 2.4 bar (35 psi) and the user must also be seated
in the power chair in order to properly adjust the anti-tip wheels.
To adjust the anti-tip wheels:
1. Loosen bolt A. See figure 21.
2. Remove bolt B.
3. Raise or lower the anti-tip wheel bracket. Each hole is 1.27 cm (0.50 in.) apart.
4. Reinstall bolt B.
5. Tighten bolt A.
6. Raise or lower the other anti-tip wheel so that it is at the same height.
Power Elevating Seat System (Standard)
The power elevating seat system is equipped with a power elevating seat actuator that enables you to raise and lower the seat
automatically. See figure 22. The power elevating seat system can enhance the capabilities of the power chair several ways:
! By raising the seat, you extend your level of reach to allow more freedom and independence in many environments.
! By raising or lowering the seat, you can easily adjust the seat height to any surface to which you want to transfer.
! By raising the seat, you are closer to the eye level of standing persons. This provides better interaction.
For all the benefits your power elevating seat system can provide you, there are limitations. Observe the following precau-
tions in order to ensure safe use of the power elevating seat system.
MANDATORY! Read and understand this owner's manual thoroughly before operating the power
chair.
