Adjusting or Changing Seat Depth

WARNING
The seat height, seat depth, back angle, seating system, size and position of the rear
wheels, as well as the user condition directly relate to the stability of the wheelchair.
Any change to one or any combination of the seven may cause the wheelchair to
decrease in stability. These adjustments MUST be performed by a qualified
technician.
RECLINERS ONLY: NEVER use the rear two recliner bracket mounting holes when
using the recliner option. Using the rear two recliner bracket mounting holes will
make the wheelchair less stable, possibly causing injury.
After adjustments and before use make sure all attaching hardware is securely
tightened.

Determining Seat Depth

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 8.8.
Seat depth is determined by measuring the distance between the front of the back cane
and the front of the seat rail.
