NOTE: The cantilever arms are designed for use with the fixed height back canes only.

Using (FIGURE 9)

1.Pull the actuator of the locking mechanism towards the front of the wheelchair.

2.While holding the actuator of the locking mecha- nism, pull up on the cantilever arm.

NOTE: If necessary, the locking mechanism in the cantilever arm can be repositioned so the cantilever arm will open down instead of up. Refer to REPLAC-

3.To lock the cantilever arm, push down until there is an audible click.

4.Pull up on the cantilever arm to make sure it is locked in place.

Installing/Height Adjustment (FIGURE 9)

NOTE: When removing the locknuts and washers from the cantilever arm assembly, leave the top hex bolt, coved washers and spacer (between ad- justment plate and cantilever arm) in place.

2.Slide the bottom hex bolt (w/coved washer) through the adjustment plate and back cane.

3.Securely tighten the cantilever arm to the wheelchair with two (2) locknuts and washers.

4.Adjust the angle of the cantilever arm, if necessary. Refer to CORRESPONDING ARM ADJUSTMENT TO BACK ANGLE in this section of the manual.

Corresponding Arm Adjustment to Back Angle (FIGURES 10 and 11)

NOTE: This adjustment is recommended if the back angle has been changed to keep arm parallel to the ground/floor.

1.Flip the cantilever arm up and out of the way.

2.Remove the locknut that secures the locking pin to the adjustment plate (FIGURE 10).
