Seat Installation

It may be necessary to install the seat either prior to ini-
tial operation or after transporting your power chair.
Most seats are attached to the power base with the Uni-
versal Mounting System (UMS). The UMS consists of
universal parts that may be attached to any medium-
back or high-back seat, regardless of seat width or seat
depth. The two main components are aluminum extru-
sions mounted to the seat base. These extrusions attach
to a pair of trapeze bars that are mounted to the power
base. See figure 11.
WARNING! Do not pick up the seat
frame by the armrests. They are free to
pivot, and you may lose control of the
seat if they do so.
To install the seat:
1. Tilt the seat back and slide the rear extrusion onto
the rear trapeze bar. See figure 11.
2. Lower the front extrusion onto the front trapeze bar
until the seat locks into place.
3. Flip the seat latch safety down.
WARNING! Make sure the seat latch
safety is flipped down before using
your power chair.
4. Install the controller into one of the armrests.
Tighten the setscrew. See figure 11.
5. Lift the armrest straight up, then route the controller
harness so that it cannot be pinched in the seat hinge
as shown in figure 11.
NOTE: It is important that the armrest be lifted straight
up prior to securing the controller harness with wire
ties.
6. Plug the controller connector into the power base.
See figure 7.
7. Secure the controller harness to the armrest receiver
with one or more wire ties. See figure 12.
MANDATORY!
harness damage! Avoid routing the
controller harness on the outside of the
armrest pad. Route the harness under
the armrest or toward the inside of the
armrest pad. Use correct tie-down
points for the controller harness to
prevent the
caught in the drive tires, pinched in the
seat frame, or damaged when passing
through doorways.
