2. ADJUSTING
THE WHEELCHAIR
TO THE USER
INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS
Start with normal relaxed seating position.
SEAT ADJUSTMENTS – BALANCING THE CHAIR
It is vital to adjust the seat correct.
Adjustments to the seat change the centre of gravity
which effects the balance of the wheelchair.
Proper adjusted seat provide stability and the ability
to manoeuvre the wheelchair, even during a max
extension of the dynamic parts of the wheelchair.
• Correct seat depth depends on the user’s thigh
length and is measured while seating – see the
red horizontal arrow on the illustration.
• Seat depth can be adjusted on the back of the
chair by moving the back hinge brackets followed
by adjusting the back cylinder head.
• Seat depth can be adjusted in the front by
adjusting the extension pieces where the leg
supports are mounted.
• The relationship between seat angle and backrest
angle should be constant when the tilt function is
used to create variation for the user.
• Seat height is to be seen together with the leg
supports.
• Leg supports need to be adjusted to
accommodate the seat height.
Please note: the Netti Dynamic System leg
support adjustments are described in detail
in a separate mounting description.
Please, see the illustrations on next page
regarding seat depth adjustments.
