WARNING
The seat height, seat depth, back angle, seating sys-
tem, size and position of the rear wheels, as well as
the user condition directly relate to the stability of
the wheelchair. Any change to one (1) or any combi-
nation of the seven (7) may cause the wheelchair to
decrease in stability. These adjustments MUST be
performed by an authorized dealer or qualified tech-
nician.
RECLINERS ONLY: NEVER use the rear two (2)
recliner bracket mounting holes when using the
recliner option. Using the rear two (2) recliner
bracket mounting holes WILL make the wheel-
chair less stable, possibly causing injury.
After adjustments and before use make sure
all attaching hardware is securely tightened.
SEAT DEPTH DETERMINATION (FIGURE 1)
Seat depth is determined by measuring the distance
between the front of the back cane and the front of
the seat rail.
CHANGING SEAT DEPTH

changing seat depth:
SEAT RAIL - Removable portion of crossbrace. One
(1) of three (3) components that determine seat depth.
CROSSBRACE SADDLE - The part of the crossbrace
that the seat rail mounts onto.
GAP - Approximate distance between the end of the

REAR/FRONT MOUNTING HOLE - Position of the
screw and washer on the underside of the wheelchair
frame. One (1) of three (3) components that deter-
mine seat depth.
