Invacare® Fox™
5.8.5 Adjusting the width of the backrest (Modulite seat
unit)
You can adjust the backrest plate width to a certain degree
by adjusting the front plate, e.g. in order to adjust the
backrest plate in line with the seat cushion. Fairly large
adjustments must be made by a service technician to the
rear plate and are outlined in the service instructions for
this mobility device.
The sling back is only available in two widths of 38-43
cm and 48-53 cm and, under certain circumstances,
must be replaced for a width adjustment. For a
replacement description, see the service instructions
for this mobility device. The service instructions can
be ordered from Invacare. However, they contain
instructions for specially trained service technicians
and describe operations that are not intended for
the end user.
Note that if the sling back width is adjusted the
backrest cushion must also be replaced.
