seat and seatback. Place the cushion over any lumbar support(s) and then secure the cushions to the seat
and seatback using the reusable hook and loop fasteners.
Wheel Replacement
If your chair is equipped with a solid tire insert, then
you must replace the whole wheel assembly. If you
have pneumatic tires, you can replace the tire or the
tube. Replacement wheel assemblies are readily
available through an authorized provider.

chair should only be serviced by an
authorized provider or a qualified
technician.
WARNING! Be sure that the power to the
controller is turned off and the power
chair is not in freewheel mode before
performing this procedure.
WARNING! When changing the tire, remove
only the center lug nut and washer, then
remove the wheel. If any further disassembly
is required, deflate the tire completely or it
may explode.

1. Turn off the power to the controller.
2. Set the power chair up on blocks.
3. Remove the drive wheel nut and washer from the axle.
