of each side of the seat back board. When the inboard button is pushed the lumbar support
pad can be moved up or down with the aid of a handle. When the outboard button is pushed
the lumbar support pad can be moved inwards or outwards by easing or applying body weight
to the back cushion. The padded armrests can be moved upwards and inwards to provide free
access to get in and out of the seat. They also have a control wheel on the underside which
can be used to adjust the height of the armrest. The seat headrest can be adjusted by moving
