5. Angle Adjustments
The Upper and Lower segments
of the Armadillo shell are
individually angle adjustable with
respect to the Middle segment.
Loosening screws G (on both sides
of hinge joint) allows the Upper
segment to be tilted forward up to
40 degrees or backward up to 20
degrees. Loosening screws F (on
both sides of hinge joint) allows the
Lower segment to be tilted forward
or backward up to 30 degrees.
Tightening the screws locks the
segment preventing a change in
angle. Ensure all 8 screws
are tightened.
Ajustements d’angle
Les segments supérieur et inférieur
de la coque Armadillo sont
individuellement réglables en angle
par rapport au segment central.
Desserrer les vis G (des deux côtés
du joint de charnière) permet
d’incliner le segment supérieur de 40
degrés vers l’avant ou de 20 degrés
vers l’arrière. Desserrer les vis F (des
deux côtés du joint de charnière)
permet d’incliner le segment
inférieur vers l’avant ou vers l’arrière
jusqu’à 30 degrés. Le serrage des vis
bloque le segment en empêchant un
changement d’angle. Assurez-vous
que les 8 vis sont serrées.

4. Lateral Installation and Adjustment
Upper laterals are held in place by screws B and the Lower laterals by screws E. These
screws thread into sliding nuts in slots on the laterals allowing the laterals to be infinitely
adjustable between their most inner and outer positions only limited by the postural
requirements of the occupant of the wheelchair and any structural components of the
wheelchair. Loosening screws B or E allowing the laterals to slide will not affect the
positioning of the mounting hooks.
5. Angle Adjustments
The Upper and Lower segments of the MAPS
shell are individually angle adjustable with

screws G (on both sides of hinge joint) allows
the Upper segment to be tilted forward up to

Loosening screws F (on both sides of hinge

forward or backward up to 30 degrees.
