To install the Adjustable Tension Back Upholstery on an Adjusta-Back:
1. Place the fabric against the front of the backrest canes making
sure that when wrapped around, the clips on the straps face
away from the fabric, and the loops point downwards.
2. The lowest two straps must be inserted through the holes in
the armrest weldments.
3. The middle strap can be clipped up above the armrest
weldment.
4. The fourth strap from the bottom of the backrest must be fed
through the loop on the strap above it, and can then be clipped
up below the crossbar.
5. The highest strap can be clipped up above the crossbar.
6. Adjust all of the straps to meet the user’s needs.
NOTE: For the 20” Adjusta-Back, the lowest strap should be clipped
up underneath the armrest weldment. The other five straps can be
clipped up in a pattern similar to the 17” Adjusta-Back.
To adjust the Adjustable Tension Back Upholstery, each strap can be
tightened or loosened at the buckles to achieve a wide range of
positions. For example, the second and third straps from the bottom
can be tightened further to create more pronounced support in the
lumbar area of the back. The looser the straps of the back upholstery,
the more the fabric will sling into the chair.
To remove the Adjustable Tension Back Upholstery, release the
buckles on the straps.
NOTE: The bottom strap should be fastened below the armrest
weldment on the back frame. In order to remove some straps, it may
help to raise the armrests.

Molded Seat
The unique seat on all Raz Shower Chairs was designed to help stabilize the pelvis and contoured for
pressure reduction. The seats are made from a soft, integral-skin foam and are available in four
configurations: 16” deep open front, 16” deep bridged front, a 19” deep open front, and 19” bridged
front. Also available is an upgrade pressure reduction seat for maximum comfort. The PRx seats are
available in 16” and 19” seat depths each with 5 configurations: bridged front, open front, left opening,
rear opening, and right opening. The seat is an element of the unique Ischial Pelvic Alignment System
(IPAS), it provides 2” of fore and aft adjustment and readily locks in place for transfers but also removes
easily for cleaning. Optional spacers for anterior or posterior seat angle adjustment are also available
with the Raz Shower Chair. The seat-to-floor height achievable on the Raz AP and SP Shower Chairs is
between 19½” and 23½” and the chair fits over most standard toilet bowls when the commode pan is not
in place.
