P. BACKREST TENSION ADJUSTABLE
The Tension Adjustable Backrest is a versatile back intended to replace
wheelchair seat sling upholstery. It is designed to provide simple, comfort-
able and effective support to help maximize function and increase seating
tolerance. In addition, it is lightweight, durable, and easy to use.
Sunrise Medical recommends that a clinician such as a doctor or therapist
experienced in seating and positioning be consulted to determine if the
Backrest Tension Adjustable is appropriate. Backs should only be installed by
an authorized Sunrise Medical supplier.

Installing a back support on a wheelchair may affect the center of gravity of
the wheelchair and may cause the wheelchair to tip backwards potentially
resulting in injury.
Always assess for the potential need for anti-tippers to be added to the
wheelchair to help increase the stability.
Do not use the Backrest Tension Adjustable to push or lift the wheelchair.
Improper use may cause the back to unexpectedly detach from the wheel-
chair.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or
loss of control may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
