Anterior Power Tilt System (APTS) on BIG BOUNDER 600
21st Century Scientific's Anterior Power Tilt System (APTS) can be
installed on all BOUNDER models. With a anterior power tilt system, the user can control
the angle between the seat and
the ground. The back of the seat tilts up from the normal driving position, and the seat
and back move together. This allows for easier transfers into and out of the chair from
a standing position. Toggle
switch control is standard. Usually the tilt can be adjusted over a 20 degree range. The
seat to back angle is fixed, usually at 94.5 degrees, though other seat to back angles
can be custom ordered. The
arms move with the seat. Front rigging is attached to the base of the chair and do not
move with the seat. Most styles of BOUNDER arms and front rigging can be installed on
reverse power tilt systems,
including DIPLR dual independent power elevating legrests.
Many owners prefer a Reverse Power Tilt System in combination with a
power recline, power seat elevator, and/or power legrests.

popular.
