Power Elevating Seat (Optional)
If your power chair is equipped with a power elevating seat option, you can change the seat height automatically. The

2. Pull back on the power elevating seat switch to lower the seat.
WARNING! Do not allow the motor to run more than a few seconds after the mechanism reaches
the top or bottom limit.
WARNING! The power elevating seat option is intended for use on a level surface only. Never
raise the seat from its lowest position on an inclined surface. Failure to heed this warning can
result in the power chair tipping over and causing injury.
WARNING! Never raise the seat from its lowest position when operating your power chair on
bumpy or uneven surfaces. Failure to heed this warning can result in the power chair tipping over
and causing injury.
WARNING! Never raise the power elevating seat while your power chair is in the freewheel mode.

NOTE: The power elevating seat option is equipped with a system that reduces the speed of the power chair
by one-half when the seat is elevated more than 2.5-5 cm (1-2 in.). Always check to be sure this system is
operating properly before using your power chair.
Anti-tip Wheel Adjustment

preset at the factory for smooth surfaces or indoor use only. If you plan on using your power chair on rough surfaces, it may
be necessary to adjust the anti-tip wheels to better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels may need adjustment if the
following occurs:
!
When coming to a stop, your power chair tips forward excessively.
!
The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.
NOTE: Each drive tyre must be inflated to 2.4 bar (35 psi) in order for the anti-tip wheels to be properly
adjusted.
