3.2.11 centre of gravity
The focus of the user is set via:
• the position of the seat supporting angle vertically and horizontally,
•
the position of the firm curved back plate.
This is automatically accompanied by the adjustment of the position of the seat plate and the
firm curved back plate.
The required adjustment work has already been described in the previous chapters (seat as-
sembly).
The (body) center of gravity of the user in his wheelchair is the decisive factor for the optimal
grip point and thus a positive force balance. Especially with young users, the acceptance of the
aid and thus the success of the rehabilitation measure are decided.
For this reason, please use the utmost care and patience when adjusting the wheelchair.
By default, the wheelchair is preset in a relatively tilt-stable position. The farther the backrest
and / or the seat supporting angle are mounted to the rear, the faster the wheelchair tends to
tip backwards. However, it can also be tipped more easily on 2 wheels, which greatly facilitates
practicing wheelchair users overcoming obstacles.
A wheelchair that is set too tilty can, above all, unsettle inexperienced users to a great ex-
tent and possibly even demotivate them! Even if the anit-tippers are activated and there is no
danger, a beginner is more likely to be blocked and limited in his ability to respond.
Please proceed cautiously and only with the help of an experienced escort step by step
to the maximum and by the user (!) Desired point of tilting. Please read the safety instructions
carefully.
