3. Backrest and backrest upholstery
Height of backrest
(Fig. 21)
First loosen the velcro ribbon to get to the bolts on both sides, see
Fig. 21
. Then
lossen the bolts on both sides. Now you can adjust the backrest to suitable
height by sliding the backrest rods up or down. When you have found the desired
height, tighten the bolts again. The loose ribbon can be removed if the backrest
height is low adjusted.
Tension of the backrest upholstery
(Fig. 22)
It is possible to tighten or slack the backrest upholstery by tightening or releasing
the Velcro straps on the back of the backrest ,
see
Fig. 22
.
The backrest upholstery also has a lower flap fastened with Velcro above the
seat upholstery, under the seat cushion. This flap can be moved backwards or
forwards to obtain the required tension in the lower section of the back upholstery
(known as the seat pocket)
By doing these adjustments you can shape the backrest upholstery after the
shape of your back so that you get suitable support for the lumbar region.
Start with slacking the velcro straps and put yourself as far back as possible in
the wheelchair.
Then tighten the velcro straps until you get a good support. If you feel that you
don´t sit as far back as you would like in the wheelchair, it can be that the lower
flap of the backrest upholstery is attached to far ahead
under the seat upholstery.
Then loose this and move it backwards.
