Seat Height and Seat Angle Adjustment
There are four steel towers that connect the seat to the power base.
See figure 6. You can change the seat height to one of three posi-
tions in 1-in. increments by raising the seat towers. If you raise or
lower only one set of seat towers (front or rear), you can also change
the seat base angle. If your power chair is equipped with a power
elevating seat, then you change the seat height through the controller
or a switch.
To change the seat height:
1. Turn off the power to the controller. See VII. “Operation.”
2. Unplug the controller connector(s) from the electronics tray.
3. Flip up the seat latch safety. See figure 12.
4. Squeeze the seat latch and release the seat from the front tra-
peze bar.
5. Slide the seat forward and remove it from the power base.
6. Remove the retaining clip from each of the four seat towers. See
figure 13.
7. Move the trapeze bars up or down to the desired height.
8. Reinstall the retaining clip into each seat tower.
9. Reinstall the seat.
10. Plug the controller connector(s) into the electronics tray.
NOTE: Make sure the seat latch safety is flipped down before
using the power chair seat.

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 the controller’s position. If
your power chair is equipped with a Specialty Seat, Synergy Seat, or Synergy TRU-Balance, refer to the information
provided in separate manuals. If your power chair is equipped with a high-back seat, a reclining seat, or a power elevating
seat, refer to the following information.
WARNING! If your power chair was configured at your Quantum Rehab Specialist, please consult
your healthcare professional before changing the seat position or making any other adjustment.
Some adjustments may degrade your power chair’s performance and safety by changing its center
of gravity.
