The seat upholstery may be re- tensioned. To do this, loosen all the screws as shown in Fig. 17 and detach the Velcro® . Re-tension the seat, attach the Velcro® and securely tighten the screws.

Firm seat board

The optional Firm Seat Board is designed to allow pressure relief cushions such as Jay to be used. If Retro-fitting the firm seat board you must ensure the two retaining screws and collars are fitted and that the seat hooks are located behind them prior to use (Fig. 18). Failure to do this may result in the seat tipping up and possibly causing injury.
