ƽ WARNING
The position of the footrest, seat angle, back angle, seating system/upholstery,
caster size and position, rear wheel size and position, use of anti-tippers, as well as
the user condition directly relate to the stability of the wheelchair. Any change to
one or any combination of the ten may cause the wheelchair to decrease in stability.
EXTREME care MUST be taken when changing the stability of the wheelchair. Refer
to the chart in General Guidelines on page 15 of this manual.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 4.4.
The Adjustable Tension Straps
The straps can be adjusted at various levels
of tension to accommodate individual
end‐users. The bottom two straps can be
adjusted tightly to support and/or assist
the extensor muscles.
The Back Upholstery Cover
NOTE: The back upholstery cover is designed
for three reasons:
• The first is as a modesty cover.
• The second is to keep the cushion from
sliding out of the back of the
wheelchair.
• The third is a sacral support depending
upon how far or tight the flap is pulled
under the seat cushion
