Adjustable Backrest Angle

The angle of the backrest can be set to 6 different positions (-5° forwards, 0°, 5°, 

10°, 15° and 20° backwards). To adjust the angle, remove the screw (1), set the 

desired angle and then re-tighten the screw (Fig. 21).

Adjustable Backrest Angle

(7° - 30°)

By pulling both levers together (1), you can release the backrest and then move 

it to the desired position.

On releasing the two levers (1) the backrest will automatically lock into place 

(Fig. 22).

 CAUTION!

•   It is recommended that the angle-adjustable backrest is used in conjunction with the wheelbase 

extension.

•   It  is  recommended  that  the  angle-adjustable  backrest  is  used  in  conjunction  with  anti-tip  tubes 

(maximum ground clearance 3 - 5 cm).

•   We recommend that the angle-adjustable backrest is used in conjunction with a stabilising bar.

Half Folding Back
Unfolding the backrest:

To put the backrest in the upright position, push the handles upwards and 

forwards until they lock in.

 WARNING!

Keep fi ngers and other items away from the folding mechanism when the backrest is being folded to
prevent injury or damage to property.

Folding the backrest:

The backrest can be folded to make storage of the wheelchair easier.

 CAUTION!

Do not operate under load as this may cause lever to break. To fold the backrest, 

stand behind the wheelchair, press the two small levers (Fig. 23 - 24) positioned 

on each side of the backrest (just above the armrests). Fold the backrest down.
