3.5. Basic Settings
It is necessary to adjust the wheelchair to your body size before
first use. This is the only way to ensure a correct posture allowing
long drives without tiring. Below you find a description of the basic
settings of the wheelchair. You should carry out these adjustments
with the help of your mobility dealer. You need a set of 4 mm, 5 mm
and 6 mm allen keys, a screw driver and ring spanners, 10 and 13.
3.5.1. Leg Supports

The lower leg supports can be adjusted from 470 to 550 mm.
•
To do so, loosen the two allen screws (SW 4).

•
Tighten the screws again. Use Loctite 243 to lock screws in place.

Make sure to always use two screws for secure

Make sure to set the angle only within the marked
range!
3.5.2. Backrest
The angle of the backrest of your electric wheelchair has a manual
recline function and can be easily adjusted to the wanted position by
pulling the strap at the lower end of the backrest. You also have the
option of folding the backrest completely down to the front.
•
You can adjust the angle of the backrest from 90° to 120° in four
steps.
•
Pull the cable behind the back while holding the backrest with the
other hand (Fig. 5).
•
After letting go of the cable the bolts will lock into place.
Make sure that both bolts on the left and right are
completely locked in place.
3.5.3. Backrest Sag
A well-adjusted backrest makes it easier to relax and sit for a long
time and effectively reduces the risk of developing pressure sores.
Make sure there is enough sag in the pelvic area.
•
Remove the padding from the tension straps of the backrest.
•
Loosen the velcro fasteners on the straps.
•
The straps are adjusted one after the other from the bottom up.
•
Slide the padding over the tension straps again (Fig. 6).
