In order to do so: remove the adhesive film and stick the tape firmly on the insert to attach. Therefore, check
for the correct placement. If it is correct remove the tape, taking care to heat the adhesive part for few seconds
by using an industrial hot hair dryer at temperature of around 100° (212°F), then reposition the tape definitely.
Be careful not to damage the materials during this operation
Modifying the Structural kit Inserts
The modifications of reduction of the inserts by removal of material where necessary, will be implemented by
cutter. If it is necessary to reconstruct the modified component (where the removed material makes it possible)
use an industrial hot air dryer at a temperature of around 100 ° (212°F) to heat and weld together the two parts
to be recomposed.
Be careful not to damage the materials during this operation
1)
Accurately detect the measurements of the user and of his wheelchair/mobility device;
2)
Remove the cover;
3)
Remove the padding;
4)
Dispose the position thighs inserts (3,2,1) on the flat base of construction (8) in order to match the distance
ischium RH/LH – popliteal cave RH/LH (-2,5 cm. -0.98") with the length of the seat obtained by the their
combination for both left and right hand sides.The combination of the distribution and direction of the thighs
inserts may be different for the right hand side and the left hand side.
It should be noted that the function of the flat base of construction (8) is to provide a supporting base between
the wheelchair / mobility device, as well as the primary structure of the construction kit on which to build or adapt
the positioning system by using, removing or modifying, as necessary and as required by the prescription, all
other inserts supplied with the construction kit.
INDICATIONS FOR THE LENGTH OF THE SEAT
It is possible to reach the desired seat length by operating on the flat base of construction only (8) (see point a),
or on the flat base of construction and consequently on the set of inserts supplied in the structural kit (see point
b), or on the inserts of the structural kit only (see point c).
a)
Flat Base of construction: The flat base of construction (8) has its own sizes accordingly to the size of the
positioning system chosen and have posterior notches of 5 cm.(1.96") wide by 6 cm. (2.36") deep.
Therefore it is possible to make it slide between the back rest tubes of the wheelchair /mobility device, once it
has been positioned on the cloth of the seat, in order to reduce its depth up to 6 cm. (2.36").
If the length achieved is not enough and it is preferable to maintain the entire length of the flat base or the user
has an irregular morphology and anthropometric measurements (i.e. leg length discrepancy), it is possible to
reduce the effective length of the flat base (8) as needed, by removing the portion of exceeding material with a
cutter horizontally along the entire front or a part of it so as to make it asymmetrical.
b)
Flat base of construction and consequently the set of inserts supplied:
Having carried out the above operation as necessary, it may be advisable to make a dimensional adjustment
of the depth measurement of the individual inserts supplied with the structural kit by removing the necessary
material using a cutter.If it is necessary to reduce the depth of the buttock guide inserts (7) remove only a
small part of material, horizontally along the posterior surface, in order to avoid affecting the pelvic contour. It is
