V. SET-UP, ADJUSTMENT & USE
TOOLS YOU WILL NEED
1. Basic Tool Kit:
To set-up, adjust and maintain your chair you will need the following tools:
• 5/32” Allen wrench
• 3/16” Allen wrench
• 5/16” Allen wrench
• 9/16” box and open-end wrench
• Phillips screwdriver #1
NOTE: Setting the wheelchair on a flat surface, such as a table or a workbench, helps
make these procedures easier.
A. BATTERY REMOVAL
To remove the batteries for transporting or
servicing:
1. Remove Battery Box
a) Turn both swedge latches up (fig1&2, A)
located on the rear of the battery box.
b) Slide the box lid rearward until it is
removed.
c) Disconnect Power harness (fig 3, C), by
pulling plug rearward.
d) Grab handle (fig1, B)and pull entire bat-
ter box away from chair.
e) Disconnect each battery and remove
from batterybox as needed.
2. Battery Installation
See section XI. Batteries, D for instructions
and wiring diagram.
Batteries may weigh up to 40 lbs. Care
must be taken to avoid injury when lifting.
B. SOLID SEAT BACK & LATERAL THORACIC SUPPORTS
1. To adjust the height of the lateral support mount, loosen the adjustment
screw until the receiver slides freely on the back posts.Tighten the adjustment screw when the proper height is determined.
2. Assess and fit the lateral thoracic supports.Assess client for proper positioning of the lateral thoracic supports. Each support is independent and
may be adjusted for your client’s clinical need.
A. SOLID SEAT BACK
Do not use the Solid Seat back to push or lift the wheelchair. Improper use may
cause the back to unexpectedly detach from the wheelchair.
B. DRIVING
Always drive your chair when seated at the minimum tilt angle. Driving your chair
when seated at an angle greater than the minimum can cause damage to the tilt
actuator.
C. TILTING
To prevent damage and personal injury, avoid tilting near objects such as walls,
tables or chairs.
To avoid injury, ensure other people, especially children, are clear of the system.
D. CHANGES & ADJUSTMENTS
Never use non-Quickie parts or make changes to your chair unless authorized by
Sunrise. (Doing so will void the warranty and may create a safety hazard.)
1. If you modify or adjust this chair it may increase the risk of fall or tip-over.
2. Modifications unauthorized by Sunrise constitutes remanufacturing of the
wheelchair. This voids the warranty. The rider then assumes all future
liability for the wheelchair.

against the shell.
E. SEAT TILT ADJUSTMENTS
The minimum and maximum seat tilt angles can be adjusted.
1. Lower Stop Limit Adjustment
a) Seat must be in full upright (untilted) position.
b) Use the 5/16” Allen wrench to loosen the socket head cap screws on
both sides of the chair. (A)
c) Use the 9/16” open-end wrench to rotate the lower arm pivot (B)
until the front of the seat is as high as possible.
Note: Will tilt back only a small distance.
d) Use the 5/16” Allen wrench to
tighten the socket head cap
screws (A) and secure the lower
arm pivot.
e) Use the 3/16” Allen wrench and
1/2” open-end wrench to remove
bolts (C) holding the lower stop
blocks.
f) Reposition lower stop block to the
desired holes. (D)
Note: Lower stop limit tilt angle:
upper position = 6 degrees; lower
position = 3 degrees.
g) Use the 5/16” Allen wrench to
loosen the socket head cap screws
(A) on both sides of the chair.
h) Use the 1/2” open-end wrench to
rotate the lower arm pivot until
the upper stop blocks just come to
rest on the lower stop blocks.
i) Use the 5/16” Allen wrench to
tighten the socket head cap screws
(A) on both sides of the chair.
j) Verify that the desired lower stop limit has been achieved.

A
B
V. SET-UP, ADJUSTMENT & USE
A minimum of 1” (2.5 cm) of clearance should exist between the top of the lateral support and the user’s arm pit.
a) To adjust the height, angle, or width of the lateral thoracic support
pads, loosen the top bolts and slide to correct width.Tighten bolt to
bolt plate. If more adjustment is necessary, loosen the internally mounted bolts, and slide in the track to the desired height and width.The
angle is obtained by tilting the bracket as needed.Tighten the bolts.
b) To adjust the depth of the lateral thoracic pads, turn the middle bracket so
that the slots are on side.Adjust to desired depth. Re-tighten the bolts.
C. HEADREST
1. Mounting a headrest.
The Solid Seat Back has a headrest plate
mounted to it. Care should be taken to
use the proper screw length when
mounting.
2. To position the headrest use the double
clamp and the collar clamp (B,C,D) to
obtain the proper height and distance.
For clamp B use a 3/32 Allen set screw
(A) and a 3/16 Allen cap screw. Clamp B
positions the headrest forward and aft.
However, due to the vertical movement
of this adjustment, collar clamp D will
have to be moved in conjunction.
3. Retighten both the 3/16 Allen and the set
screws (A) with a 3/32 Allen wrench.

meet (A).
3. Verify the motor cuts out once the neutral position is reached.
4. Verify no debris is interfering with the
glide bearings.
5. Verify all hardware is securely tightened.
6. Verify that the tilt lock-out sensor (
I
) is
positioned in its mount with its wires
leading out toward the front of the chair.
A
c) Tilt the seat to the desired limit.
d) Slide the switch (B) back toward the rear until it comes into contact
with the tilt carriage.
Note: Sliding the switch (B) toward the back of the chair decreases
the tilt limit angle. Sliding the switch (B) toward the front of the chair
increases the tilt limit angle.
Note: A soft, audible click can be heard as the switch arm (B) comes
in contact with the carriage.
e) Use the #1 Phillips screwderiver to tighten the switch to the point
where the switch closes.
Note: Listen for the soft, audible click.
f) Verify that the desired tilt angle has been achieved.
Note: Maximum tilt angle is adjustable to 50°.
