Wolturnus Active Wheelchair Manual 2019
Adjustment and set-up
6.3
Back angle adjustment,
standard
The angle of the standard back is adjusted with a threaded screw. When adjusting the slope of
the back:
•
Extend the anti-tip device. This will ensure that the wheelchair does not tip over if the back
is angled too far backwards.
•
Loosen and remove the bottom bolt that secures the back and the locking bracket (Fig. 17).
•
The angle can now be adjusted by using and rotating the wrench one way or another as
shown on figure 7.
•
After adjustning the angle, make sure to retighten both top and bottom bolts.
6.4 Adjustment of back depth and shape
The shape of the back is adapted to the individual needs of support and balance and can be
adjusted with velcro straps behind the backrest.
•
Fold the back of the back cover up so the velcro straps are visible.
•
Loosen or tighten the individual straps so that the shape of the back is adjusted to the ne
-
eds of the user (Fig. 9).
•
Fold the backrest back and fasten it on the straps.
Adjustment of the shape and depth of the backrest is of major importance to the users, to
get the optimal benefits from the wheelchair. Wolturnus A/S recommends that this option be
initially performed with the assistance of a Wolturnus A/S consultant or the user’s therapist.
When adjusting the back angle, the center of gravity of the wheelchair can be displaced and
the risk of tilting backwards may increase. After adjusting the back angle, check the center
of gravity and adjust if necessary before using the wheelchair (see section 6.12).
