4.3 Unfolding/Folding the Back
WARNING!
–
ALWAYS perform these procedures in the presence
of an assistant. The position of the footrest, camber
tube, seat angle, back angle, the tautness of the back
upholstery as well as the user's condition are directly
related to the wheelchairs stability. Any change to
one or any combination of the five may cause the
wheelchair to decrease in stability. Use EXTREME
caution when using a new seating position. The
addition of anti-tippers may be required.
–
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE
use, make sure all attaching hardware is tightened
securely - otherwise injury or damage may occur.
WARNING!
–
After unfolding the back, ensure that the plunger
pins are fully engaged in the mounting holes of the
adjustment square in the back cane mounting brackets
(Detail “A”). Back MUST be locked securely in place.
Otherwise, serious injury could result.
