7 Accessories and equipment
A wide range of accessories and equipment is available for Wolturnus active wheelchairs. The
most popular accessories are described in this section.
7.1 Plated back
As an alternative, A-Run comfort wheelchair can be obtained with metal plates instead of
standard strap hook back with Velcro straps. The plate back consists of two plates, where it is
possible to adjust the height of the back by moving one of the plates.
7.2 Backrest with gas damper
The gas-operated back is controlled by a release handle and allows the backrest to be easily
changed.
Adjusting the back angle with gas damper:
•
Turn on anti-tip. This ensures that the wheelchair doesn’t tip backwards if the back is ang
-
led too far back.
•
The backrest can now be adjusted up or down by holding the release lever (Fig. 45) at the
bottom while lifting or pushing down the pushhandle (Fig. 46).
•
When the desired setting is reached release the lever to lock the position of the back.
When adjusting the back angle, the center of gravity of the wheelchair can be displaced and
the risk of tilting backwards may increase. After adjusting the back angle, check the center
of gravity and adjust if necessary before using the wheelchair (see section 6.12).
