CONVAID USER’S GUIDE
Footplate Adjustment
All Convaid footplates are height adjustable.
To determine the correct seat-to-footplate height, measure from
the back of the knee to the bottom of the heel. Fig. 73
Note:
By flipping the footplate upside-down, it allows you to
accommodate shorter leg drops than the chair is otherwise able
to do in standard configuration.
Note:
Size 10 needs
calf panel to cover
holes.

Height Adjustment:
The soles of the feet or heels should rest comfortably on top of the footplates. To achieve this,
remove detent pins on the front of the leg tubes, slide the footplate to the desired height and rein-
sert the pins. When the footplate is adjusted in its highest position, the excess material of the calf
flap may be wrapped under the footplate and attached with Velcro. Fig. 74 & 75
Angle Adjustment:
To achieve comfortable foot placement, the footplate angle may be adjusted. Loosen the #1 bolt
on each side, and adjust to desired position. Fig. 76

Depth Adjustment:

each side of the footplate. Slide the foot-plate to the desired depth,
and tighten the bolts. Fig. 77
