IV. COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
After becoming familiar with your wheelchair’s operation, you may find the need to make some adjustments to
increase your comfort, such as drive wheel height, swing-away footrest length, elevating leg rest length and angle,
calf pad height, seatback height, armrest height, seatback angle, seat angle, manual wheel lock tension, seat
tension, and caster angle.
WARNING! The center of gravity of your wheelchair was factory set to a position that meets the
needs of the demographic majority of users. Your authorized Pride Provider has evaluated your
wheelchair and made any necessary adjustments to suit your specific requirements. Do not
change your seating configuration without first contacting Pride Mobility Products or your
authorized Pride Provider.
WARNING! Some wheelchair 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 wheelchair.
WARNING! Remove the occupant from the wheelchair before making any adjustments.
You may need the following to make comfort adjustments:
Metric socket set
Metric hex key set
Adjustable wrench
Drive Wheel Adjustment
Your wheelchair is equipped with a quick-release drive wheel. The location of the drive wheel on the wheelchair
frame determines the drive wheel height and can affect performance and center of gravity.
NOTE: If you change the drive wheel position, you may have to change the caster height, caster angle, and
adjust the manual wheel lock. Consult your authorized Pride Provider.
To change the drive wheel height:
1. Remove the drive wheel. Press the quick-release button and pull the drive wheel off of the wheelchair. See
figure 11.
