UNIQUE LOOK & DEPENDABLE FRAME:

The frame design is also great for troubleshooting or removing the batteries when necessary.  The Trident HD also has two large 14″ flat free tires that support all the weight of the unit and rider.  This also helps provide better traction when you are on multiple terrains.  It also has an extra large footplate that is 15″ deep by 12″ wide that is capable of flipping up as well.

FULL SUSPENSION FOR A SMOOTH RIDE:

Another unique feature about this heavy duty power chair is that is comes with a spring coiled full suspension.  This ensures that your ride is smooth when you are on multiple terrains.  This unit operates off of two motors and there is a suspension coil under each motor.

There is also two suspension coils on the front two caster wheels, so transitioning from pavement to grass is as smooth as possible.  The 10” rear free-wheels follow seamlessly behind the chair.  This allows this chair to have a 29″ turning radius and provides great stability.

ADJUSTABLE CAPTAIN’S SEAT & ARMRESTS:

Being on your power chair for any extended length of time, it is important that your seat is comfortable.  The Trident HD has one of the most comfortable, cushioned, and adjustable seats on the power chair market today.  The seat is oversized with options to make it larger if necessary.  It can be adjusted to tilt back or tilt it forward for easier storage.

You also have the ability to adjust the height of the seat so you can get to the most comfortable position for your leg length.  There are also padded, adjustable armrests, that flip up for easy entry and exit of the seat.  Additionally, in order to charge the unit, you simply plug in the charger to the joystick on the armrest.  No more bending over to find the charging port!
