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 TRU-Balance Power Position-
ing System, refer to the seat adjustment information contained in separate manuals. If your power chair is
equipped with a contoured seating system, refer to the following information.
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 authorized 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
authorized 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.
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
If your power chair is not equipped with a transit
securement system, you can change the seat height to
one of three positions by raising the front and rear tra-
peze bars. If you raise or lower only one trapeze bar
(front or rear), you can also change the seat base angle
(dump).
MANDATORY! If your power chair is
equipped with a transit securement
system and any adjustment to the seat
height or seat angle is necessary,
contact
Provider. These comfort adjustment
can only be made by a authorized Pride
Provider.
To change the seat height:
1. Turn off the power to the controller.
2. Make sure the power chair is in drive mode.
3. Unplug the controller connector(s) from the power
base. See figure 3.
4. Flip up the seat latch safety. See figure 7.
5. Squeeze the seat latch and release the seat from the
