CIMAN009 – Issue 1
When removing the seat for maintenance or cleaning we suggest that you note
the dimensions of the aperture and gap at the front of the chair to ensure it is re-
fitted in the correct position.
The seat is adjustable in width to allow improved posture and comfort.
Ensure that the seat is set correctly for the Service User.
Ensure that the gap in the “Flexi-seat” will not allow any part of the Service User’s
body to become trapped.
To Adjust The Seat
1 - Remove commode pan (if fitted).
2 - Release each bolt, to allow the seat to move.
3 - Position the seat as required.
4 - Tighten the bolt.
5 - Repeat operations 1 to 4 for the opposite side.
PAEDIATRIC AND INFANT CHAIRS
Gap, Toilet and Full Seat
Gap Front, Toilet and full Seat are fitted directly to the frame and secured with Allen
head screws.
Undo
the 4 Allen head screws bolts securing the seat and it can be removed for easy
cleaning, or replacement. A suitable Allen key will be required (not supplied).
Replacement is a reverse of the above operation.
Flexi-Seat, (Split Seat)
The Flexi-seat when supplied with the Paediatric and Infant Chairs is an upholstered
rather than moulded seat. Adjustment and removal, however, is the same as on the
adult chair.
Tilt In Space Cradle Mesh, Mesh Backrests, (where fitted to chairs), and Calf-
Straps
Dependant upon specification the full Cradle mesh can be supplied with or without
an aperture for toileting/access. The full cradle mesh, mesh backrest and calf-straps,
have webbing straps which are used when fitting and removing meshes and to
secure them to the Cradle/Chair. The straps are also utilised to alter the tension of
the mesh.
Mesh Removal
1 - Undo all of the plastic side-pinch buckles on the webbing straps.
2 - Locate and remove the two plastic seat support ‘bones. (These are located in
sleeves underneath either side of the seat on an aperture mesh only).
3 - Remove the mesh.
4 - Replacement of the mesh is a reversal of the above process.
