  • Page 9: General Guidelines

    Pride products. Pre-Ride Safety Check Get to know the feel of your power chair and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before each use to make sure your power chair operates smoothly and safely.
  • Page 10: Your Power Chair

    Your power chair is rated for a maximum weight capacity. Please refer to the specifications table for this limit. MANDATORY! Stay within the specified weight capacity of your power chair. Exceeding the weight capacity voids your warranty. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
  • Page 11 Doing so could cause instability in your power chair. Pride recommends that the maximum slope of an incline you attempt to safely ascend or descend on your power chair does not exceed 5° (8.7%). See figure 1.
  • Page 12 Your power chair is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces composed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will encounter other surface types. For this reason, your power chair is designed to perform admirably on packed soil, grass, and gravel.
  • Page 13 Motor Vehicle Transport Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your power chair while traveling in a motor vehicle. The power chair should be stowed in the trunk of a car or in the back of a truck or van with batteries removed and properly secured.
  • Page 14: Positioning Belts

    I I . S A F E T Y WARNING! Always be sure your power chair and its batteries are properly secured when it is being transported. Batteries should be secured in an upright position and protective caps should be installed on the battery terminals. Batteries should not be transported with any flammable or combustible items.
  • Page 15 Pride recommends that the power chair user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending and reaching in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional.
  • Page 16 NOTE: For further information on EMI/RFI, go to the Resource Center on www.pridemobility.com. If unin- tended motion or brake release occurs, turn your power chair off as soon as it is safe to do so. Call Pride at 1- 800-424-8205 to report the incident.

    I I I . Y O U R P O W E R C H A I R THE QUANTUM 6000Z SERIES The Quantum 6000Z Series has two main assemblies: the seat assembly and the power base assembly. See figure 5. Typically, the seat assembly includes the armrests, seatback, and seat base. The power base assembly includes two motor/brake assemblies, two drive wheels, four caster wheels, two batteries, and wiring harnesses.

  • Page 21 I V . A S S E M B L Y INITIAL ASSEMBLY Your power chair may require some assembly either before initial use or after transportation. It may also require disassembly to make some comfort adjustments. Figure 10 details those parts of the power chair that are designed to be disassembled and assembled by an end user or by a qualified caregiver before using the product or making comfort adjustments.
  • Page 22 I V . A S S E M B L Y Seat Installation SEAT It may be necessary to install the seat either prior to LATCH initial operation or after transporting your power chair. SAFETY Contour seats are attached to the power base with the Universal Mounting System (UMS).
  • Page 23 I V . A S S E M B L Y Power Elevating Seat Installation Your power chair may be equipped with the power ele- vating seat option. While the seat itself may be any one of the styles offered for this model, the way the seat base attaches to the power base is different.
  • Page 24: Comfort Adjustments

    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.

  • Page 29: Batteries And Charging

    PROHIBITED! Do not allow unsupervised children to play near the power chair while the batteries are charging. Pride recommends that you do not charge the batteries while the power chair is occupied.
  • Page 30 4. Plug the off-board charger into the electrical outlet. NOTE: If it is a Pride off-board charger, then there are two lights in it. The red light indicates that power to the off-board charger is on. The green light indi- cates that the batteries are fully charged.
  • Page 31 We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide a battery that best suits your power chair’s specific demands. Fresh batteries arrive regularly at Pride and are promptly shipped with a full charge. During shipping, the batteries encounter temperature extremes that may influence initial performance. Heat robs the charge from the battery, and cold slows the power available and extends the time needed to recharge the battery (just as with a car battery).
  • Page 32 V I . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G How can I ensure maximum battery life? A fully charged deep-cycle battery will provide reliable performance and extended battery life. Keep your power chair’s batteries fully charged whenever possible.
  • Page 33: Care And Maintenance

    V I I . C A R E A N D M A I N T E N A N C E CARE AND MAINTENANCE Your Quantum 6000Z Series is a sophisticated power chair. Like any motorized vehicle, it requires routine main- tenance checks.
