Freeman 280 - Adjusting Left-Hand Armrest and Seat Back

Rev 4/2018
31
INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
NOTE: The suspension can be adjusted to
reach limits in the minimum and maximum
heights which, in effect, locks out the suspen-
sion system, making it rigid. The suspension
height control will also hit the limits if adjusted
too close to the extremes.
The forward/backward adjustment handle (C)
allows the seat to slide forward or backward for
best working position.
Seat bottom tilt control handle (D), allows the front
of the seat cushion to be raised or lowered for the
best working position.
Attenuator lockout lever (E) locks out or releases
the forward or rearward movement. Pull up on the
handle to lock; push down on the handle to release.
The forward/rearward adjustment handle (F) allows
the seat bottom to slide forward or backward for
the best working position.
NOTE: If the seat does not float or "pump"
up, contact your Freeman dealer.
