COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
The Synergy Seat is the standard seat assembly for your power chair. After you have become familiar with your power
chair’s operation, you may find the need to make adjustments to the seat to increase your comfort. Information on seat
adjustment is contained in separate manuals that accompany this product.
WARNING! If your power chair was configured by your Quantum Rehab Specialist, please consult
your healthcare professional before making any adjustment that may degrade your power chair’s
performance and safety by changing its center of gravity.
WARNING! Some power chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry
them. Please refer to the specifications table for specific component weights before you
disassemble the power chair.
WARNING! Prevent injury. Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.

Seat Height and Angle
You can change the seat height by either raising or lowering the
four seat posts attached to the seat base.
WARNING! Do not pick up the seat frame
by the armrests. They are free to pivot, and
you may lose control of the seat if they do
so, resulting in personal injury and/or dam-
age to the chair.
To change the seat height:
1. Turn off the power to the controller.
2. Remove the T-handle ball detent pins that secure the seat
base to the power base. See figure 17.
3. Raise or lower the seat posts attached to the seat base to
the desired height. You may find it easier to adjust the front
posts first, and then the rear posts.
4. Align the locating hole in the seat post with the one in the
seat mount connector, and reinsert the T-handle ball detent
pin for each post. See figure 17.
To change the seat angle:
You can change the seat angle by raising or lowering one set of
seat posts (front or rear).
