Backrest

The tension of the backrest can be adjusted to
enable you to sit comfortably in the wheelchair.
Additionally the height of the backrest can also be
adjusted.
Backrest cover
The tauter you adjust the backrest cover, the
harder it feels. First remove the backrest padding
that is attached by Velcro tape (See Fig. 30).
Then you can adjust each of the belts so that they
are firmer or less firm (Fig. 31). To lessen the
tension on particular parts of your back, loosen the
belt there a little. Now you have to re-secure the
back padding by means of the Velcro tape.
Backrest height
To adjust the backrest height it is recommended
that the side parts and the back padding are
removed first. You can then loosen the screws on
both sides (Fig. 32) and adjust the frame to the
desired height. Then put the screws back into the
holes provided and screw them firmly in.
