SEAT DEPTH – BALANCING
THE WHEELCHAIR
The seat depth can be adjusted both in the front
and the rear. The goal is to give the user an
ergonomic seating position with lumbar support
and the knee-joint aligned with the knee-joint of the
leg supports.
By adjusting the seat depth the balance of the
wheelchair is affected and thereby also the driving
characteristics.
A well balanced chair is easy to drive without the
tendency to tip backwards.
As a basic rule, start with adjusting the seat depth
backwards. After this is done the leg support
extension brackets can be pulled out to align the leg
support pivot knee-joint with the user knee-joint.
If required, move the main wheels to get good
balance in the wheelchair see 6.6.
