Seating
Changing the shape or tension
To change the shape and/or tension of the ‘Optima’ backrest remove the padded cover from the rear of the backrest and expose the tension straps (Fig 21). Loosen or tighten the straps to suit. (The most comfortable and supportive position is achieved with the wheelchair user seated in the chair). Ensure the straps are securely fastened and replace the padded cover prior to use.
Changing seat depth
To change the seating depth remove the two bolts (Fig. 22) on the top plate on both sides of the chair. The backrest can now be moved to the desired position. Replace the two bolts ensuring they are firmly tightened. A greater depth reduction can be achieved by swapping the L.H. and R.H. brackets around. If this is done ensure all the bolts are secure prior to use.
