N. SEAT AND BACK UPHOLSTERY
1. Replace worn or torn fabric of seat and seat back as soon as you
can. If you fail to do so, the seat or seat back may fail.
2. Sling fabric will weaken with age and use. Look for fraying, thin spots,
or stretching of fabrics especially at edges and seams.
3. "Dropping down" into your chair will weaken fabric and result in
the need to inspect and replace the seat more often.
4. Be aware that laundering or excess moisture will reduce the flame
retardation qualities of the fabric.
5. If Tension Adjustable upholstery is present, loosen straps or remove
upholstery prior to folding or unfolding the 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.
O. 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 healthcare professional such as a doc-
tor 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.
Maximum user weight 265 lbs. (120 kg.)
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. lways 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.
P. REAR SUSPENSION (Optional)
When replacing the suspension bushings, always use genuine Sunrise parts.
Use of non-Sunrise replacement parts voids the warranty and could cause
structural failure.
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.
