The seat angle
is obtained by the difference between front and
rear seat height.
At changed seat angle:
- Adjust the angle of the front fork attachments.
- Check the back support angle.
The seat depth
can be adjusted by lifting the front seat upholstery
and moving it backwards/forwards.
With Cross back support 3A, the seat depth can be extended by using
the back support adjustment (see section
“Adjusting the seat depth
using the lumbar angle, 3A”).
Seating comfort
After adjusting the seat height, seat angle, seat depth and back angle,
the back upholstery should be adjusted to provide support and comfort.
See section
“Seating comfort settings”
.
Consider the risk of tipping.
Always check the setting of the anti-tip guard.
