User Guide

Features and Functional Benefits
• Regular and tall heights: Accommodates the different postural requirements and need for taller back
supports when used with tilt and/or recline
• 1" soft foam: Provides optimal comfort with pressure redistribution
•
Spacer fabric: Allows for improved airflow between the user and
back for optimal management of heat and moisture to promote better
skin integrity
• Scapular cutouts: Facilitates upright positioning with trunk
extension without interfering with upper extremity function.
By not limiting upper extremity range of motion, overall
functionality is maximized
• 3" lateral contour depth: Provides lateral trunk support to facilitate centering and postural control with
proximal stability required for function
• Sacral support: Facilitates proximal stability required for function. Provides pelvic control/support for an
upright posture with trunk extension
• Sacral contours: Tapered contours at the sacral portion of the back allow full contact of the back shell against
the user without interfering with hip placement in the seating system
• One tool assembly: Only one tool needed for all installations, adjustments and accessories
• Single-point mounting hardware: Works with dual-point strength to create stability and securely
mounts between canes without any unwanted play, while allowing height, depth and back angle
adjustment. Designed to mount onto back canes with an outside diameter of 1" or 7/8"
• Angle adjustable hardware: Allows accommodation of hip range of motion limitations, kyphotic postures
and posterior pelvic tilt by opening up seat to back angle
• Depth adjustable hardware: Allows positioning without losing seat depth, thereby maximizing the area of
seating surface for optimal pressure redistribution
• Height adjustable hardware: Accommodates user’s positioning requirements in the wheelchair

Optional Thoracic Lateral Supports: Optional
supports (4" tall) provide improved trunk control
and stability
Optional Pelvic Stabilizers: Optional supports
(3" tall) promote pelvic stability
These optional supports provide additional positioning for
the trunk and pelvis to increase support for maximizing
upright (spinal extension) and midline (centered) trunk
positioning. The thoracic lateral supports and pelvic
stabilizers are adjustable in height and width for accom-
modating fixed posture asymmetries, correcting flexible
postural deformities or adjusting over time to support
postural changes incrementally in steps. Additionally,
these supports act as clinician’s hands to keep the
patient in the best position identified.
