Adjusting the seat depth
Remove the cushions from the backrest. Attach the Depth
Adjustment Kit with the Velcro at the top as shown. Re-attach the
two bottom cushions to the depth adjustment kit on the Velcro
tabs provided. The top cushion fits as normal on the Velcro tab at
the top of the backrest. Ensure the cushions are firmly fixed on the
Velcro tabs provided.
Changing the pressure cushions
For static cushions
The cushion is attached to the seat base with Velcro. Simply remove
the existing cushion and place new cushion on the Velcro tabs.
For Cushionair
The Cushionair cushion requires a separate power supply to operate
the electric pump. When installing the Cushionair cushion, ensure the
pipes are routed correctly through the back of the chair in the
middle, to avoid them catching or crushing. Also ensure that the
power leads and pipes are positioned so they are clear of any
walkways etc to minimise the risk of tripping. Test the pump and
cushion to ensure it inflates correctly before use.
The weight capacity for the Cushionair is 160kg.
THE CHAIR MUST NOT BE MOVED WHILE PLUGGED INTO MAINS ELECTRICAL SUPPLY.
Changing the backrest cushions
Remove the cushions and fix the new backrest
ensuring it is firmly secured on the Velcro tabs
provided. This is important when using the Depth
Adjustment Kit.
The cushions and Depth Adjustment Kit can be
moved up and down on the Velcro tabs to
accommodate different postural requirements.
Always ensure the cushions are firmly fixed on the
Velcro tabs before use. Filling can also be removed
from the ‘Multi-adjustable Pillow Backrest’ as described below. Please note that filling should not be removed
from the ‘Lateral Support Backrest.’
When removing cushions, fold the Velcro flaps on the cushions back so that filling and dust does not get caught
in the Velcro.
Use caution when using the lateral support backrest with the dual motor tilt-in-space mechanism as it introduces
shear forces.
