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, armrest angle, foot platform angle, depth, and height, and controller

position. Refer to the following information before making comfort adjustments.

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 authorized Pride 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

authorized Pride Provider.

WARNING! Some power chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry

them. Please refer to the product specifications for specific component weights before you

disassemble the power chair.

WARNING! Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.
