Odyssey Chair (OC-150/250) Instructions: Page 4 of 7
Once the chair is assembled it should be adjusted to fit the user properly.
1.
Adjust the seat depth and angle.
The seat should be 1 ½ “ – 2” behind the bend of
the knee with the user sitting on the seat, bending
forward to get the hips to the back of the chair.
A.
To adjust the
seat depth
, loosen the
(4)
large
knobs that secure the seat to the side. Move it
forward or backward to achieve the desired
depth.
B.
To position the pelvis, the seat can be
angled
by moving the front of the seat in the angled
slots on the side frame.
Once the desired depth and angle are achieved,
tighten all knobs securely.
2.
Adjust the seat depth and back angle.
Note:
The back support can be secured in a number of positions on the side of the chair. If a short
seat depth is required, position the back support toward the front of the chair. If a longer seat depth
is needed place the bolts toward the rear of the chair.
To adjust the
back angle
, move the top of the back support back from vertical until the desired angle
is achieved.
Tighten
the knobs securely.
3. Adjust the pelvic positioning belt.
The 1” adjustable pelvic belt with side release buckle should be positioned in the notch created by
the bend of the lap between the thigh and the pelvis, and tightened snugly.
Note:
The double slotted
rings on each side of the pelvic strap have the loose ends of the strap threaded back through. This
prevents the strap from slipping, makes the belt completely adjustable and allows the belt to snap
closed at any location.
4. Adjust the footrest height.
Loosen
the
(4)
knobs on the chair sides. Raise or lower the footrest so that the end of the thigh is
resting securely on the front edge of the seat.
Tighten knobs securely before use.
Attach chair Options purchased and follow instructions.
Note:
Placement of options may affect previous adjustments. Re-assess steps 1 – 4 for a proper fit.
