ASSEMBLY / ADJUSTMENT / OPERATION
To do so, proceed as follows:

Loosen the two screws on the rear plates of the
side supports�

Now adjust the lateral side supports to the pa-
tient's measurements� The lateral side supports
can be adjusted both for height as well as width�

Tighten all screws again�

Proceed in the same manner on the opposite side�

Check the fit of the lateral side supports and make
any necessary changes�
Lumbar spine support with Velcro attachment
Support of the lumbar spine leads to better erection
of the torso� Various variants are possible: for one, an
integrated lumbar spine support which is already inte-
grated into the back part on delivery, or alternatively, a
lumbar spine support with Velcro attachment� Lumbar
spine support with Velcro attachment can be both on
top or underneath the cover�
Lumbar support allows lordotic bending of the spine
in the lumbar region� This type of support is particu-
larly suitable for patients who tend towards a kyphotic
back posture and require support in torso erection�
The thickness of lumbar spine support is determined
during preparation of the concept�
To adjust the lumbar spine support correctly, proceed
as follows:

Lumbar spine support under the cover: open and
remove the cover of the back part�

Detach the lumbar spine support from the Velcro
fleece connection�

Place the lumbar spinal support in the correct
desired position and attach again with Velcro�

Check the fit of the lumbar spine support and make
any necessary changes�

Reclose the cover of the back cushion�
Back extension, attachable by slipping on
If the back length no longer provides adequate due to
the patient's growth, then slip-on back extension is
used� This is slipped onto the rigid back and is located
between the back part and the head rest, thus extend-
ing the back height by the length of the back extension�
Proceed as follows:

Take the head rest from its mounting (see section
"Head rest")�

Then insert the back extension with the hook fac-
ing downwards behind the cover of the back part�

Now insert the head rest back into the head rest
bracket through the back extension into the actual
back unit�

Then adjust the head rest correctly and secure all
clamp levers�

Arm rests
The AKTIVLINE
®
seat system can be fitted with differ-
ent arm rests of the ALULINE range� Arm rests give
the patient sufficient support and stability and support
erection of the torso� Mount the arm rests by releas-
ing the locking levers of the arm rest holders on the
right and left sides of the seating shell, insert the arm
rests and tighten the locking levers again� To adjust
the height, change the insertion depth on the oval tube
universal holder�
To adjust the angle of the arm rest, proceed as follows:

Open the clamp on one side of the arm rest bracket
by turning the clamp lever counterclockwise�

The angle of the arm rest to the seat shell can then
be adjusted�

Hold the arm rest in the desired position with one
hand and secure it in place by tightening the clamp
lever clockwise with the other hand�

This will maintain the arm rest in position�

Repeat this procedure on the other side�
Upper arm supports
The upper arm supports serve to limit the range of
motion� The patient is no longer able to move his or
her arms backwards, between the back rest and arm
rest� The standard equipment includes the upper arm
supports mounted on the back rest�
In the option with adjustable upper arm supports, these
can be adjusted in height and depth via an adjustment
rail on the back of the seating shell� To do so, proceed
as follows:

Loosen the screws on the adjustment rail of the
upper arm supports�

Slide the upper arm supports into the desired
position�

Tighten all screws again�
L­shaped arm rests
L-shaped arm rests meet both the function of an arm
rest as well as the function of an upper arm support�
This type of arm rest follows the stretching of the pa-
tient and automatically returns to the starting position
of the seating shell� Please observe the adjustment op-
tions and the correct positioning, as already described
under arm rests and the upper arm supports�
