V. SET UP & USE OF YOUR WHEELCHAIR
J. Rear Seat Height Adjustment
Rear seat height can be adjusted by repositioning the Tubular Component System (TCS).
1. Remove your wheels by depressing the buttons on
the quick release axle.
2. Use a 4mm Allen wrench and 8mm open end wrench
to remove the two bolts (Fig. 11:A) holding the upper
and lower mounting brackets together. Reposition
the mounting brackets to the desired height and
replace the two M5 bolts.
3. Repeat on both sides of the wheelchair.
NOTE: Height adjustments are in ¼" increments.
NOTE: A front caster adjustment should be made to
correspond with any change in seat angle.
WARNING: Lowering the seat height at the rear of the seat .5" or 2 positions of .25" increments
will decrease the rearward stability by ½ degree. The more you move your rear wheels forward,
the more likely your chair will tip over backwards.
Always make adjustments in small increments and check the stability of your chair with a spotter
to prevent a tip-over. We recommend that you use anti-tip tubes until you adapt to the change and
are sure you are not at risk to tip over.
DANGER: Failure to heed these warnings may cause serious injury or death.
K. Front Seat Height Adjustment
The front seat height can be adjusted in ½" increments by repositioning the caster wheel within
the fork (Fig. 12).
1. Use two 4mm Allen wrenches to remove the cap
screws and push the internally threaded axle from
one hole location and move up or down to the
desired location.
2. Reposition the two 6mm screws and tighten to 80
in./lbs.
3. Resquare caster wheels as noted in Section L.
