7 Backrest
WARNING
•
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure that all attaching
hardware is tightened securely - otherwise injury or damage may result.
•
It is important for regular inspection to be carried out on the Backrest for signs of visible
damage. If any repairs are required, these should be carried out by an INVACARE dealer.
•
It should be noted that under certain conditions and configuration of the wheelchair, i.e. for
users with limited / no lateral body control, and with the backrest in the reclined position, there
is the potential to creat a body trap between the armrest / side panel and the backrest. Suitable
accessories are available from Invacare (lateral trunk supports) to eliminate this risk.
