7.20  Folded wheelchair lock band 

 
This accessory is useful to keep the wheelchair folded when moving it, for instance, into the car. It 

binds  the  two  front  frame  together  by  means  of  a  Velcro  strap.  The  backrest  is  not  involved, 
therefore, if it is folded or in its upright position, you can use the lock band independently.  
  

 
 

 
 
 

 
 
Detach the band from the point under the seat canvas where you can see a stitched Velcro band. 

Fold the seat. 
Let the band pass under the front frame but above the two folding axles. 

Attach the band on the outer side of the point B of the frame where another Velcro piece is fixed. 
 
 

 
 
 

 
 
 
To open the seat, detach the band from the point B first. 
To  prevent  the  band  from  hanging  about  once  the  seat  is  open;  attach  the  band  to  the  point  A 

under the seat canvas. 

 

 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

7.21  Backrest drawstring 

 
This accessory allow unlocking the backrest locking hooks at the same time and with one hand 

only. 
 
It is particularly useful when you need to fold the backrest down while having the front side of the 

wheelchair ahead of you (this situation is common when the user is loading the wheelchair into the 
car on his own). 

 
To fold the backrest down, pull the string A up until the two levers B reach the full stroke. Now, with 
your forearm, start folding the backrest, then, you can release the string and complete the folding 

with one hand.  
 
 

 
 

 
 
 

 
 
 

 
 
 
 
This operation results practical only when the seat is open.
