2.1.2 Type of backrests
- Folding backrest (photos 2 & 2A)
43 cm backrest height.
• To save space when transporting folded and unoccupied,
operate lever (A) by pulling it and fold the top of the backrest.
To return to the initial position, bring the top in the vertical
position; it locks automatically.
Always make sure that the backrest is properly locked
in place before the user settles down in the wheelchair to
prevent any injuries !
- Reclining backrest, 0° to 30°, 43 cm backrest height (photo 4).
The intended use of reclining backrest is to get a relaxing,
comfort position for the user. It is not indented to be used in
a dynamic situation and it should be used on horizontal sur-
face when the backrest is reclined (especially when the bac-
krest angle is more than 10°). Anti-tippers are recommended
for those who need to feel safer or have a specific usage.
Simultaneously pull the levers (A) to provides the same angle
on both sides, release the levers when you reach the desired
angle.(Photo 3)
There are 4 angles position by step of 10°.
Note :
Push on the backrest canes before operating the levers,
this is to release the auto-locked security system. (Photo 3A).
It is recommended that this operation be performed
only by the attendant. Always make sure that the backrest is
locked in place to ensure perfect safety for the user.
Keep away fingers from moving parts (levers, cylinders,
mechanisms, etc.) to prevent injuries !
