CONVAID USER’S GUIDE
Convaid offers a wide variety of supports to help properly position the user.
NOTE:
Convaid’s chairs provide a semi-contour fit around the body. The user must be fitted correctly
into the chair to achieve optimal posture and comfort.
Accessories
Full Torso Swing-Away Support Vest
Fig. 92
The adjustable support vest keeps the user securely in place,
maintains midline seating position, and prevents forward
slumping.
The vest attaches with Velcro
®
straps around the back of the
chair. To attach, insert the shoulder straps through the back
upholstery grommet holes, and secure with the threaded knob.
To keep the vest from sliding up, feed the side straps of the three
point positioning belt through the vest loops. Adjust the side
straps on the vest for proper fit around the user’s trunk.
