SEAT INSTALLATION
It may be necessary to install the seat either prior to initial operation or after transporting your power chair. Most seats are
attached to the Vibe power base with the Universal Mounting System (UMS). The UMS consists of universal parts that
may be used on any medium back or high back seat, regardless of seat width or seat depth. The two main components are
aluminum extrusions that can be mounted to any medium back or high back seat. These extrusions attach to a pair of
trapeze bars that are mounted to the power 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 or damage to the chair.
To install the seat:
1. Set the trapeze bars to the desired height. To change the trapeze bar height, see VI. Comfort Adjustments.
2. Tilt the seat back, and slide the rear extrusion onto the rear trapeze bar. See figure 8.
3. Lower the front extrusion onto the front trapeze bar until the seat locks into place.
4. Flip the seat latch safety down. See figures 8 and 9.
WARNING! Make sure the seat latch safety is flipped down before using your power chair.
5. Install the controller into one of the armrests. See VI. Comfort Adjustments.
6. Pull the battery door straps and open the battery door. See figure 5.
7. Plug the controller cable into the connector. See figure 5.
8. Close the battery door.
9. Route the cable to ensure that the cable cannot be pinched in the seat hinge. See the accompanying
Instructions for
Mounting the VSI, Dynamic, or Remote Plus Controller Cable on Jazzy Power Chairs with a Standard or
Synergy Seating System.
10. Secure the controller cable to the armrest receiver with one or more wire ties.
