LEG SUPPORT HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT
Measure the user’s lower leg length F – 90 degrees
bent knee – measure from underside thigh to
underside heel of shoe.
The centre joint of the leg support is hidden under
the knee-joint upholstery. The illustration with
removed upholstery shows the leg support knee-
joint centre. This shall be aligned both horizontally
and vertically with the knee-joint of the user by
adjusting both seat depth and footboard height.
NB! CORRECT SEAT DEPTH:
•
Loosen the Velcro straps of the back support.
Check that the user is sitting well into the chair
leaning on the back cushion.
•
Adjust the back support by pulling the straps of
the Velcro. The knees of the user should align with
the joint of the leg support both in height and in
depth. This will ensure that the user gets a back
good support and good pressure distribution
under the thighs.
•
Leave 30 – 40 mm free space between the users
thigh and seat plate front.
The seat depth can be adjusted by:
moving the leg support extension pieces and
thereby increas the seat depth in the front and
by repositioning the chair-back hinges to adjust
the seat depth backwards. Consider wheelchair
balance.
See further information to seat depth adjustment in
the wheelchair user manual.
