Adjusting the Seating System Mounting Position
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 9 on page 67.
NOTE: These instructions apply to elevate power seating (tilt elevate, tilt recline elevate, and
elevate only).
1. Loosen, but DO NOT remove, the four mounting screws and locknuts securing the
seat frame to the interface mounting bracket.
2. Perform one of the following to ensure the Formula CG seating system is in the proper
mounting position:
NOTE: Some front rigging and seat depth combinations may not allow for the 1-inch gap. In this
situation, slide the seat frame mounting brackets as far back as possible.
• Wheelchairs with Swing Away Front Rigging - Slide the seat frame as far as
possible towards the rear of the wheelchair (FIGURE 9). Leave 1 to 1½-inch of
clearance between the front riggings and the front casters in all caster positions.
• Wheelchairs with Manual or Power Center Mount Front Rigging - Slide the seat
frame as far as possible towards the rear of the wheelchair (FIGURE 9). Leave 1 to
1½-inch of clearance between the center mount front riggings and the front
shroud.
3. Ensure the interface mounting brackets and the seat frame are flush and square.
4. Secure the seat frame to the interface mounting brackets. Torque the four mounting
screws and locknuts to 13 ft-lbs ± 20%.
5. Cycle the tilt and/or recline functions to verify wiring harnesses DO NOT obstruct the
path of the system. If they do, perform one of the following:
• Wires were damaged during inspection - Replace damaged wires.
• Wires were not damaged during inspection - Cut tie-wraps and relocate wires to a
location where they will not become damaged.
