The angles at which the thoracic supports attach to the seating system or
wheelchair frame determine the effectiveness of the product for the user.
Posture Support/H-Harness/Back Pack Strap Installation
12.2
Solid back should be roughly at shoulder height for anterior support to fit properly. If the
strap is attached lower than the shoulders, it will pull the shoulders downward. If the
shoulder harness is mounted too high, it will be less effective in pulling the shoulders
back.
Shoulder straps/H-Harness should be positioned so that the vertical straps cross
mid-clavicle and the horizontal straps sit mid-trunk.
Back pack straps should be positioned so the vertical straps cross mid-clavicle.
If the back height is lower than shoulder, consider strap risers for correct positioning.
To prevent improper alignment, it is recommended that the bottom straps be adjusted
first, then the top straps.
Strap Risers: Strap risers attach to the solid back’s t-nuts. Ensure that proper height is
provided for comfortable fit on the shoulders. Slide the harness strap
through the front of the strap riser and fasten to back.
