6.3.1.2.1 Adjusting the back support upholstery

INFORMATION
A well-adjusted back support provides lasting comfort for the wheelchair user and reduces the risk of secondary
damage and pressure zones.
INFORMATION
Ensure that the user's pelvis is positioned as far back in the seat as possible, i.e. between the back support
tubes.
The adjustable back support upholstery can be adjusted in segments to the needs of the user. In order to properly
adjust the upholstery, the user must be sitting in the wheelchair during the adjustment process.

Adjusting the back support upholstery
1) Pull the fabric of the back support pad off the hook-
and-loop straps of the back support upholstery and
fold it up.
2) Open and loosen the hook-and-loop straps one
after the other (see fig. 3).
3) From the bottom to the top, adjust the tension of the
hook-and-loop straps to the weight and anatomical
condition of the user and fasten the straps one after
the other.
INFORMATION: The two ends of the hook-and-
loop strap have to overlap by at least 100 mm in
each case.
INFORMATION: Adjust the respective lower
hook-and-loop straps somewhat tighter. Deviat­
ing adjustments may be required in specific
cases; this is the responsibility of the attending
therapist.
4) Fold the fabric of the back support pad over the
hook-and-loop straps and press it into place.
