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 angle, foot platform height and angle, and controller position.

NOTE: If your power chair is equipped with a Synergy Seat or TRU-Balance Power Positioning 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 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.

power base.

posts to the power base. See figure 14.
