NOTE:
The rigid back bar notch can be positioned toward the posterior of the wheelchair
as shown. The rigid back bar notch can also be in the anterior position, although seat depth
will be affected.
NOTE:
Avoid over-tightening the screws around the wheelchair push canes (See Figure 2B)
B. Adjusting the Back Width
A unique feature of the Back is its range of width adjustability. It is designed first to custom
fit the user, and second, to fit onto the wheelchair. This is accomplished by having two sets
of width adjustments.
When the proper width of the Back has been adjusted to the specific user, a second set of
adjustments within the attachment hardware allows the Back to properly fit the wheelchair.
The Back is offered in two standard sizes:
