Seat Installation

It may be necessary to install the seat either prior to initial 
operation or after transporting your Go-Chair. The seat is 
attached to the power base by a height-adjustable seat 
post.

WARNING! Do not pick up the seat frame 

by the armrests. They are free to pivot, 

and you may lose control of the seat if 

they do so.

To install the seat:

1.  Adjust the seat height if necessary. See “Comfort 

Adjustments.”

2.  Set the seat onto the seat post. 

See fi gure 5.

3.  Install under-seat storage. See “Comfort Adjustments.”
4.  Install the controller into the armrest, and tighten the 

setscrew under the armrest.

5.  Route the controller harness to the rear of the power 

base.

6.  Plug the controller harness connector into the power 

base.

7.  Secure the controller harness to the armrest with 

wire ties. 

See fi gure 5.

MANDATORY! Prevent controller harness 

damage! Avoid routing the controller 

harness on the outside of the armrest 

pad. Route the harness under the armrest 

or toward the inside of the armrest pad. 

Use correct tie-down points for the 

controller harness to prevent the harness 

from getting caught in the drive tires, 

pinched in the seat frame, or damaged 

when passing through doorways.

Disassembly

The Go-Chair disassembles into fi ve components: the 
seat, the under-seat storage bin, the battery box, the 
rear section of the power base, and the front section of 
the power base. 

See fi gure 6.

To disassemble the Go-Chair:

1.  Turn off the power to the controller.
2.  Place the Go-Chair in drive mode, if not in drive mode 

already. See “Your Go-Chair.”

3.  Unplug the controller from power base.
4. 

Remove under-seat storage. See “Comfort 
Adjustments.”

5.  Remove the seat by lifting it straight up and off of the 

Go-Chair. If you encounter resistance when removing 
the seat, disengage the seat release lever and swivel 
the seat back and forth while lifting up on the seat.

6.  Grasp the battery box handle and lift up to disengage 

the box from the power base, then tilt the box foward 
slightly and pull it away from the power base.

7.  Disconnect two halves using the frame release lever.
