PRIDE STYLUS ADJUSTMENTS
You must have your Pride Stylus set up by your authorised Pride Dealer prior

come unstable under certain conditions (such as stopping, cornering, etc.). There
are several adjustments that can be made to the Pride Stylus:

Swing-away (SFR) Footrest Length

DRIVE WHEEL POSITION
Each drive wheel is attached to the frame by a bracket. The position of this
bracket on the frame changes the drive wheel position. See figures 12 and 13.
When the bracket is in positions A or C, the seat-to-floor height is 49.5 cm
(19.5 in.). When the bracket is in positions B or D, the seat-to-floor height is 47
cm (18.5 in.). Drive wheel bracket position also affects performance and centre
of gravity. Positions A and B move the drive wheel rearward. Positions C and D
move the drive wheel forward.
