Troubleshooting

For additional assistance, contact your equipment provider, distributor, or Customer Support.

The hardware is loose 

on the wheelchair back 

canes.

The wheelchair canes are too small. Check the outer cane clamp size. If the back canes on your wheelchair are ¾ in. 

(2 cm) in diameter, you must use the 3/4 in. (2 cm) Outer Cane Clamps. See “Hardware Selection”.

The hardware won’t fit 

onto the wheelchair back 

canes.

The wheelchair canes are too large. Check the outer cane clamp size. If the back canes on your wheelchair are 1 in. 

(2.5 cm) in diameter, you must use the 1 in. (2.5 cm) Outer Cane Clamps. See “Hardware Selection”.

The hardware will not 

tighten or stay secure.

Make sure that the hardware is correctly sized. See "Hardware Selection". 
Mare sure the hardware is correctly assembled and oriented to the back shell. The markers on the back shell should 

align with the marker on the inner cane clamp. See "Hardware Attachment". 

The back support 

appears to be unevenly 

installed.

Use a tape measure or ruler to make sure the hardware is at the same height on both wheelchair canes.
Make sure the same discs are used on both sides (for example, AB and BA; not AA and BA). See “Hardware 

Attachment”.

The air insert is not 

holding air.

Inflate the air insert. Inspect the inflation valve and hose for damage. Confirm that the inflation valve is completely 

closed. Look for holes in the air insert. If very small holes or no holes are visible, follow the instructions in the Repair 

Kit provided with your product.

The air insert does not 

feel comfortable.

Add or remove air to adjust to your comfort level. See "Air Insert Adjustment".
Make sure the air cells are facing the individual and the cover is properly positioned. See "Cover Removal and 

Installation" and "Foam Pad and Air Insert Removal and Installation".

The air insert slides out 

of position.

Make sure the air insert is properly positioned and the fabric back of the air insert is secured to the fastener strip in 

the cutout area of the foam pad. The perimeter of the air insert should be tucked in between the foam layers around 

the edge of the cutout area. See "Foam Pad and Air Insert Removal and Installation".
