SAFETY SUMMARY

NOTE: Check all parts for shipping damage. In case of damage, DO NOT use. Contact your Dealer for further instruction.

INSTALLATION WARNINGS

Stabilize from the ground up. A stable base, pelvis and footrests are requirements for any torso positioning system.

For proper installation of the Infinity LoBack and to reduce the risk of pressure sores, the adjust- ment procedures in this manual MUST be performed in the following order:

1.Adjusting the Mounting Hardware/Height

2.Adjusting the Depth Hardware

3.Adjusting the Angle

4.Adjusting the Lateral Supports

Ensure the cane clamps that secure the Infinity LoBack to the wheelchair are properly secured to the wheelchair BEFORE using. Otherwise, changes in seat depth will occur, making the wheel- chair less stable.

After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure all attaching hardware is tight- ened securely - otherwise injury or damage may occur.

STABILITYWARNINGS

The seat height, seat depth, back height, tilt angle, back angle, pivot point of seat frame, seating system, caster position, size and position of the rear wheels, wheel locks, anti-tippers, locking col- lar as well as the user condition directly relate to the stability of the wheelchair. Any change to one (1) or any combination of the fourteen (14) may cause the wheelchair to decrease in stabil- ity. Use EXTREME caution when using a new seating position.
