B.SOLID SEAT BACK & LATERAL THORACIC SUPPORTS

1.To adjust the height of the lateral support mount, loosen the adjustment screw until the receiver slides freely on the back posts. Tighten the adjustment screw when the proper height is determined.

2.Assess and fit the lateral thoracic supports. Assess client for proper positioning of the lateral thoracic supports. Each support is independent and may be adjusted for your client’s clinical need.

A minimum of 1" (2.5 cm) of clearance should exist between the top of the lat- eral support and the user’s arm pit.

a.To adjust the height, angle or width of the lateral thoracic support pads, loosen the top bolts and slide to correct width. Tighten bolt to bolt plate. If more adjustment is necessary, loosen the internally mounted bolts, and slide in the track to the desired height and width. The angle is obtained by tilting the bracket as needed. Tighten the bolts.

b.To adjust the depth of the lateral thoracic pads, turn the middle bracket so that the slots are on side. Adjust to desired depth. Re-tighten the bolts.
