SECTION 6—BACK

Crossfire™Series Wheelchairs 32 Part No 1148078

Adjustable Tension Back Upholstery

 WARNING

The position of the footrest, seat angle, back angle, seating system/upholstery,

caster size and position, rear wheel size and position, use of anti-tippers, as well as

the user condition directly relate to the stability of the wheelchair. Any change to

one or any combination of the ten may cause the wheelchair to decrease in stability.

EXTREME care MUST be taken when changing the stability of the wheelchair. Refer

to the chart in General Guidelines on page 11 of this manual.

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.3.

The Adjustable Tension Straps

The straps can be adjusted at various levels

of tension to accommodate individual

end-users. The bottom two straps can be

adjusted tightly to support and/or assist

the extensor muscles.

The Back Upholstery Cover

NOTE: The back upholstery cover is designed

for three reasons:

• The first is as a modesty cover.

• The second is to keep the cushion from

sliding out of the back of the

wheelchair.

• The third is a sacral support depending

upon how far or tight the flap is pulled

under the seat cushion.
