3.5.7 Backbrace
There are two types of backbraces (Standard backbrace and
Folding backbrace) available.

to the backrest upholstery and must always be in position
on recliner versions.

wheelchair. The backbrace is not a push bar!

the backbrace; it may come loose and it could
break.

and sharp edges to prevent injuries.
