DECREASE THE POSSIBILITY OF
SLIDING, SHEAR AND PRESSURE
SORES:
The tilt angle is to be used to achieve
variation of the seating position for the
user.
__________________________________
The chair back recline function should
not be adjusted after the back angle is
accommodated to the user’s best upright
seating position.
The muscle tone of the neck and back
should be as low as possible for the user
and a change of the recline angle from
the correct adjusted position will interrupt
and destroy the correct body position,
and cause an increased muscle tone in
the neck when sitting upright.
If the recline function is used during
a transfer situation or other situations, it
is very important that the recline angle is
adjusted back to the correct, original po-
sition when the user is back to a normal
seating position.
Wrong usage of recline causes an
increased possibility of sliding, and this
means an increased danger of shear
(vertical and horizontal forces) and pres-
sure sores.
7.2 RECLINING THE CHAIR BACK
OPERATING RECLINE HANDLE:
Press the right handle and put pressure to
the push bar to recline the back with one
of your hands, while you have eye contact
with the user and put the other hand on
the arm support.
The seat unit can be reclined from 0° to
+35°.
Wherever you let the handle loose, the
chair back will stay fixed and locked.
The recline label sits on the push bar:
