your medical supplies dealer�
To apply and remove the shoulder bands, proceed as follows:
Preparation:
Place the patient in the seat shell�

cushion bar and the actual support structure by turning it counterclock-
wise�
It is then possible to slide and turn the shoulder band�
Perform the following movements by taking the upholstered part of the
shoulder band in one hand:
Pull the shoulder band away from the patient’s body somewhat
Turn the shoulder band
90
° until it is horizontal with the edge of the seat�
Slide the shoulder band back toward the back of the shell�
Repeat this procedure on the other side�
The patient is then no longer restrained by the shoulder bands�
Repeat these steps in reverse order to apply the shoulder bands� When

tributed on the shoulders and not excessive�
