•
Allow the user to adopt his or her best sitting posture in the
(wheel)chair and configure the system in the best way possible.
If necessary, consult the previous instructions regarding the
configuration of the head support. Slide the forehead strap, with the
pleated side above, over the user’s head and position the strap as
comfortably as possible above the eyebrows.

•
Position the forehead strap just above
the eyebrows. The cord needs to be pulled
backwards in a straight line.
•
Adjust the tension of the cord using the tensioning elements. The
tension must be such that the strap always remains in contact with the
forehead.
•
NB: do not increase the tension to the extent that this causes pressure
spots on the forehead. Look out for any red areas or irritation in the region
where the forehead strap is in contact with the skin. However, avoid
situations where the tension is so slack that the forehead strap drops
down over the users eyes and nose!
•
A good indication is given by the pleats in the dynamic forehead strap:
these should not be too tight.
