Permobil ROHO Dry FLOATATION QUADTRO SELECT E2624 Adjustment Manual page 4

Adjusting a ROHO® QUADTRO
SELECT® cushion for positioning
NOTE: Before adjusting Quadtro Select for an asymmetry, you MUST perform a hand check to adjust the air inflation level to proper cushion inflation setting as detailed on the reverse side of this document.
To correct a reducible (flexible) posterior pelvic
tilt (anterior-posterior asymmetry):
1. Make sure the ISOFLO Memory Control is open
(press green knob in).
FIGURE 1
2. Make sure the pelvis is located at the back of
the cushion, in a neutral and upright position.
FIGURE 2
3. Use your hands to create downward pressure on
both sides of the pelvis to force air to the front
quadrants and create a contour for the pelvis
that will help discourage forward migration;
close the ISOFLO (press red knob in), and then
release the pressure on the pelvis.
4. Perform a hand check and make sure there is
a minimum of ½ - 1" of air between the ischial
tuberosities and the seat surface.

To correct a reducible (flexible)
pelvic obliquity (lateral asymmetry):
1. Make sure the ISOFLO Memory Control is open
(press green knob in).
2. Make sure the pelvis is positioned at the back of
the cushion.
3. Position the pelvis in a neutral and upright
position by pressing down on the higher side of
the pelvis until the pelvis is level.
This will force more air into the quadrant under
the lower side of the pelvis to help prevent it
from tilting to that side.

4. Close the ISOFLO (press red knob in), then
release your pressure on the pelvis. FIGURE 3
5. Perform a hand check and make sure there is

To accommodate a non-reducible (fixed)
postural asymmetry:
1. Make sure the ISOFLO Memory Control is open
(press green knob in).
FIGURE 1
2. Have the individual sit on the cushion in the
most upright and midline posture that they can
achieve.
FIGURE 9
3. Close the ISOFLO (press red knob in). This will
help hold the pelvis in the best posture that
is achievable by that individual and prevent
further progression into asymmetry.
4. Perform a hand check and make sure there is
a minimum of ½ - 1" of air between the lowest
ischial tuberosity and the seat surface.
