5.2 Setting seat depth

To optimally set the power wheelchair to the user's needs,
it is advisable to have the seat depth set individually by an
authorized Invacare provider.
There are perforated rails under the seat for adjusting the
seat depth. This results in the following seat depths: 38, 40,
42, 44 and 46 cm. These values are etched into the lower
perforated rails as a positioning guide. The power wheelchair
is set at the max. seat depth of 46 cm when supplied.
CAUTION!
Risk of injury
– When carrying out work underneath the raised
seat unit it must be ensured that this is not
lowered. The power wheelchair must be
switched off.

Risk of damage to property
If the seat depth is not adjusted properly, there
is a risk of the verticalizer being destroyed.
– The lower and upper perforated rails of the
parallelogram must be adjusted analog to each
other. Otherwise the verticalizer is destroyed
when operated due to the modified geometry.
What should be observed when adjusting the seat
depth?
If the seat depth adjustment is too short, the forces
on the body whilst standing up are too great. If
the seat depth adjustment is too long, the user can
"collapse" whilst standing.
