Installing the Kato Plus on a Wheelbase

Wheelbases complete with base and back canvas (fig. 1)

1. Remove the armrests from the wheelbase to improve access.
2. Place the Kato Plus onto the wheelbase canvas.
3. Pass the two retaining straps around the 

wheelbase uprights. Make sure that the retaining straps are not 
tangled or obstructed.

4. Push both ends of the buckle together. 
5. Tighten both retaining straps by pulling the loose end 

of the webbing away from the buckle.

6. If the Kato Plus has a tube on the rear of the 

back support (

brackets (
