e) Fasten the split clamps (F) such that the

clamps capture both the towel bar (C) and the
swing-arm cross member.

f) Rotate the position of the swing-arm cross

member underneath the towel bar and as close
to the seat back as possible.

g) Tighten the split clamps (F). Do not fully tighten.

Clamps should be tight so that the clamp does
not rotate, except with sufficient hand force.

h) Ensure that the lower four links (G) are posi-

tioned such that the upper portion of the links
are slanted rearward beyond the vertical, as
shown in the accompanying figure.

i) Begin tilting the system. If the vent tray binds,

or interferes with the battery box, return the tilt
to an upright position and rotate the clamps
around. Tilt the system once again and observe
what happens. You may need to go through sev-
eral iterations of clamp position before finding
the most appropriate clamp location. You will
know when you have achieved the appropriate
position when the vent tray articulates just past
the vent battery box when tilting and tucks up
close to the back rest when fully upright.

NOTE– It is important to keep the angle between the

swing-arm (E) and the vent tray platform (D) as
small as possible. This will prevent the system
from inadvertently binding due to vibration or
impact.

Angle should
be as small as
possible

Links should
be slanted
rearward

F. ANTI-TIP CASTER LOCK-OUT

1. The rear anti-tip casters incorporate a lock-out

mechanism to prevent the chair from sagging
rearward when tilting. To adjust the tilt angle
at which they lock-out follow the instructions
below:
a) Adjust the height of the anti-tip lock-out

actuator levers (A).

b) Adjust the cable position (B) at the anti-tip

mount and the anti-tip lock-out actuator
lever mount brackets (C).

2. Proper adjustment of the anti-tip lock-out

levers can be verified when three conditions
exist:
a) The anti-tip lock-out levers under the anti-tip

lower links are retracted when the seat frame
is on the forward stops.

b) The anti-tip lock-out levers (A) located at

the front stop pins (D) do not rotate to the
point that they can not be engaged by the
seat frame forward cross tube when the seat
frame is lowered toward the forward stop
pins.

c) When the seat frame is elevated off the anti-

tip lock-out actuator levers (A), the anti-tip
lock-out levers are free to engage the anti-
tip lower links.

G. ARTICULATING VENTILATOR TRAY

1. Attach the Vent Tray to the S-646 Frame

a) Slip the vent tray battery cage (A) over the rear

frame tube of the S-646 (B).

b) Fasten the battery cage to the frame using the

two bolts provided.

2. Attach Vent Tray Swing-Arm to the Towel Bar.

a) Position the Power C.G. Tilt system in the fully

upright position.

b) Adjust the towel bar (C) to the desired height.
c) Position the vent tray platform (D) such that it

is level with the floor and within 1.5" of the
seat back.

d) Adjust the length of the vent tray swing-arm

(E) such that the swing-arm cross member is
virtually at the same position as the towel bar.
