COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
After becoming familiar with your travel chair’s operation, you may find the need to make some adjustments to increase
your comfort, such as seat height, armrest width, foot platform depth, and controller position. Use the steps below to make
comfort adjustments.
WARNING! If your Go-Chair was configured by an authorized Pride Provider, please consult the
authorized Pride Provider before changing the seat position or making any other adjustment. Some
adjustments may degrade your travel chair’s performance and safety by changing its center of gravity.
WARNING! Some Go-Chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry them.
Please refer to the specifications table for specific component weights before you disassemble
the Go-Chair.
WARNING! Prevent injury. Remove the occupant from the Go-Chair before making any adjustments.

Quick Release Fasteners
The quick release fastener removes excess play in the seat
pedestal. See figure 16. The quick release fastener consists
of a bolt, a lever, and a nut. See figure 17. The lever has a
cam on the end that allows it to clamp into place. The quick
release fastener has two states: clamped and unclamped.
When the lever is open, the quick release fastener is
unclamped. When the lever is closed, the quick release fas-
tener is clamped.
To clamp the quick release fastener:
1. Make sure the lever is in the open position.
2. Turn the nut clockwise until it is snug.
3. Rotate the lever until it is in the fully closed position.
