Removal and Installation of Seats With Side Rails
Removal
1. Remove the controller (See page 43).
2. Remove the controller cable from seat if so attached.
3. Locate the front and rear bolts on each of the side brackets
below the seat (See Figure 9C).
4. Remove the front bolts, leave the rear bolts installed but loose.
Note the position of the bolts for reinstallation.
5. From the rear, tilt the seat back and remove from the rear slots.
Replacement
1. Locate the rear mounting holes on the brackets attached to the
seat. If bolt has been removed, loosely install it in the same position
prior to removal of the seat.
2. Locate the controller cable to the rear of the chair and between the
side rails.
3. From the rear, lift the seat, placing the rear bolts into the slots in the
rear of the frame bracket and allow the seat to rest in the forward
position on the base frame.
4. Locate the front mounting holes in the side rails and install the front
bolts and tighten the front and rear bolts.
5. Reinstall the controller cable and controller mounting bracket.
Position the cable to the minimum length to allow the arm to
lift. To prevent cable damage, do not let the cable hang free
or extend beyond the chair. Use care when driving to keep the
cable from catching on objects.

The seat assembly is heavy. To avoid injury, do not attempt to
lift beyond your capability.
The cable that joins the joystick to the junction box is a critical part
of the vehicle. Ample cable is provided to allow for adjustments.
There is a danger if this cable is not correctly routed. Do not
allow the excess cable to extend beyond the width of the chair
where it may become damaged.
