VI adjustMeNts
The Metro Power III offers several adjustments to enhance driving ease and comfort. Adjustments
should be performed with wheelchair power off and the wheelchair unoccupied. Ensure that all
components are in excellent condition before adjusting (Part VIII, MAINTENANCE, offers sugges-
tions for maintaining your wheelchair in excellent condition). These adjustments are recommended
methods; after performing a few, you may develop your own.
Specific tools needed to perform each adjustment are identified in adjustment sections. A complete
list of tools needed to perform all adjustments in Part VI follows:
7 / 32 " hex key, 3 / 16 " hex key

Flip arm back
The Metro Power III arm can be removed from the front socket
and rotated around the back socket. To flip the arm back:
1. Press arm release at front socket and pull arm up until locking
button is free (see picture at right).
2. Rotate arm backward around pivot. If integral controller is at-
tached to arm, take care that it is not allowed to drop.
3. Replace arm assembly: rotate arm frontward around pivot.
Lower arm straight down into front socket and push to lock.
Ensure that locking button is locked into place.
Warning: Ensure that arm is rotated back down to front
and locked in place in front arm socket before operat-
ing wheelchair.
adjust integral controller extension position—backward & forward
The integral controller extension can be moved backward and forward along arm. The extension has
a stop at both front and back limits to keep it from adjusting too far backward or forward.
1. Release the clamp.
2. Slide extension to preferred position.
3. Resecure the clamp.
Warning: Ensure that extension is
securely mounted before operating
wheelchair.
