Size Selection of the Sport-Lite™

Wheelchair Cushion

Simply select the cushion that would match the width of your hips when

seated. Cushion size should not be determined by the wheelchair seat width.

Improper cushion fit will affect the performance of pressure distribution of the

cushion and its proper positioning support of the body.

The length of the cushion should be determined by placing the cushion at

the back of the wheelchair while the length extends to the front within 1" to 2"

from the back of the knees. The ischial tuberosities (sitting bones) should be

centered in the seat in the center of the back seating area.

The footrest should be adjusted properly in order to enhance seating

comfort and help to lower peak seating pressures.

In order to prevent the Sport-Lite™ from sliding on the wheelchair uphol-

stery, especially during transfers, follow these instructions.

The Sport-Lite

Cushion Warranty

Hudson Medical guarantees the Sport-Lite™ Cushion to be free from

defects in material and workmanship for a period of 18 months from

the date of purchase under normal use. Should defect occur, the

cushion should be returned by the customer to the place of purchase

with original sales receipt. Hudson Medical will determine if it is a

manufacturing defect and replace or repair the cushion without charge.

This warranty does not apply to punctures, tears and burns to the

cushion or removable cover.

To Clean the Cover

Remove the cover from the seat cushion. Machine wash in lukewarm

water and air dry. No ironing is required.

To Clean the Molded Foam Core

To clean the foam core simply spot clean or wipe with moist warm cloth.

Avoid submerging the base in water.

Step 1.

Thoroughly clean the surface of the

wheelchair seat.

Step 2.

Peel off the paper backing of the Velcro

strip provided and place 2" from the front, in the

center of the wheelchair seat, as shown.

Step 3.

Place the cushion on the wheelchair. The

Velcro strip on the bottom of the upholstered

Sport Lite™ Cushion as well as the non-slip

surface and the Velcro strip placed on the seat

will prevent sliding when changing body position

while seated.
