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 seatback recline angle, armrest position, and controller position. If your power
chair is equipped with power seating options, contact your authorised Pride Provider.
WARNING! The centre of gravity of your power chair was factory set to a position that meets the
needs of the demographic majority of users. Your authorised Pride 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
authorised Pride Provider.
WARNING! Some power chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry
them. Please refer to the specifications table for specific component weights before you
disassemble the power chair.
WARNING! Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.
NOTE: Any nylon insert lock nut removed during the
disassembly or adjustment of the power chair must be
replaced with a new nut. Nylon insert lock nuts should not
be reused as it may cause damage to the nylon insert,
resulting in a less secure fit. Replacement nylon insert
lock nuts are available at local hardware stores or through
your authorised Pride Provider.
You may need the following to make comfort adjustments:
metric/standard hex key set
metric/standard socket set and ratchet
adjustable spanner
Manual Recline Seatback Adjustment
Your seat may be equipped with a manual recline lever that
allows you to adjust the seatback angle.
To adjust the seatback angle:

squeeze the manual recline lever mounted to the
armrest. See figure 10.
2. Set the seatback at the desired angle by leaning forward
or back.
3. Release the manual recline lever when the seatback is at
the desired angle.
