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 Synergy TRU-Balance 2 Power
Positioning System, refer to the information provided in separate manuals.
WARNING! The center 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 "Appendix I - Specifications" for specific component weights before you
disassemble the power chair.
WARNING! Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.
You may need the following to make comfort
adjustments:
metric/standard socket set and ratchet
adjustable wrench
metric/standard hex key set
thread lock
Seat Height and Seat Angle Adjustment
You can change the seat height to one of three posi-
tions 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. Loosen the rear shroud fasteners and remove the
rear shroud. See figure 6.
4. Disconnect the controller connector(s) from the
power base. See figure 7.
5. Flip up the seat latch safety. See figure 11.
6. Squeeze the seat latch and release the seat from
the front trapeze bar.
7. Slide the seat forward and remove it from the
power base.
8. Remove the retaining clips that attach the trapeze
bars to the seat posts. See figure 16.
9. Move the trapeze bars up or down to the desired
height.
NOTE: Change the seat dump by raising or lower-
ing only one set of towers (front or rear).
