7.15 Foam wedges for individual seating positions

The foam wedges can be used for individual fine adjustment of the seat surface according to the specifications of
the therapist (see fig. 71). This makes it possible to form a sloped seat to support the ischium, for example.
The foam wedges are attached to the seat surface and one another:
1) Remove the seat padding from the seating unit.
2) Cut the foam wedges to size if necessary.
3) Affix the self-adhesive hook-and-loop strap to the foam wedges.
4) Attach the first foam wedge to the seat plate.
5) Attach the other foam wedges to one another using the affixed hook-and-loop strap (see fig. 73).
Make sure that a hook-and-loop strap is affixed to the top side of the uppermost foam wedge for attaching the
seat padding.
6) Fit the seat padding onto the hook-and-loop fastener.
