The TRU-Balance® 3 Power Positioning System
The TRU-Balance® 3 Power Positioning System is a unique seating
system designed specifically for the Quantum Power Chair. It is fully
adjustable to meet the individual needs of the user, and it is mounted to
a Quantum power base to provide maximum maneuverability.
Reusable hook and loop fasteners are included in your owner's package
for use in attaching the seat cushion to the seat base. These fasteners
are not intended for use on cushions with anti-skid material, as they
may damage the seat cushion.
Figure 1 provides information on the TRU-Balance® 3 Power Positioning
System components shown with a standard back. The components of
the TRU-Comfort 2 back are described in "TRU-Comfort 2 Components"
(figure 23). Use these diagrams to familiarize yourself with the function
and location of each component before using the TRU-Balance® 3
Power Positioning System.

3 Power Positioning System is equipped with a different operating
device, refer to the operation manual supplied with that device
