ENGLISH
Seat-to-Floor Height
The seat-to floor height of the RAMQ approved XL5 and XL RFL wheelchairs varies
depending on the seat angle, the position of the axle mounting plate, and the
position and diameter of the propulsion wheels. The seat-to-floor height of the non-
RAMQ approved XL5 and XL RF wheelchairs varies according to the same criteria and
the type of frame selected. The seat-to-floor height should be adjusted by following
the instructions below.
Determining the seat angle
The difference between the front seat-to-floor height A and the rear seat-to-floor
height B will determine the seat angle.
WARNING
The seat angle should not exceed 10°. If this angle is exceeded, the
•
stability of the wheelchair may be compromised.
The front seat-to-floor height must be greater than or equal to the rear
•
seat-to- floor height.
