Procedure 5.3 - Adjusting the Seat Carriage
1.
Perform this procedure if the front to rear movement of the seat is too tight or
there is excessive side to side seat wobble.
2.
Loosen but do not remove the four mounting screws on the left and right seat
adjustment plates. See Diagram 5.3
Diagram 5.3 - Recumbent Seat Adjustment (All versions)
3.
Insert an allen bit into the adjustment hole in one of the seat adjustment plates.
Rotate the adjustment plate counterclockwise to loosen or clockwise to tighten
the seat. Perform half of the adjustment using the right hand adjustment plate
and half of the adjustment using the left hand adjustment plate.
4.
Apply a minimum of pressure to the adjustment wrench when tightening the seat
adjustment. Apply only enough pressure to rotate the adjustment plate fully
clockwise.
5.
When the seat is properly adjusted, the angle of rotation of both adjustment
plates should be approximately the same. The seat should not wobble side to side
and should move forward and backward easily.
