PEER LEVEL STANDER ADJUSTMENTS:
Note: The columns on these standers telescope up from the
foot support. This allows the child to stand as close to the
floor (peer level) as possible.
NEVER MAKE ANY OF THESE ADJUSTMENTS
WITH THE CHILD IN THE STANDER!
Foot Support
: Initially, measure from the foot support
to the knee pad and lower or raise the foot supports to
the desired height (floor to mid
-
knee measurement) with
the push pin (fig 11a). Note: Fine tuning instructions for
the Foot Supports to follow.
Trunk Support
:Removing both push pins (b & c) pull
the column up to the correct height for the chest support
and put trunk pin (b) in place.
Hip Support
: Pull the hip support up to the desired
height (heel to iliac crest measurement) and replace the
pin (c).
Head Support
: Position the neckrest(d) at mid
-
ear
height of the child, using the push pin and allen screws
for adjustment.
Hip and Trunk Support Widths
: Loosen the black
knobs (e) and slide the bars to the appropriate width (you
may need to loosen the straps).
It is very important to
make sure that the outsides of the bars are an equal
distance from the mid
-
line of the column. If they are
not, the child may not be weight bearing evenly.
Tighten the knobs and re
-
velcro the inside strap. This
will be adjusted later as part of the "fine tuning" while
the child is in the stander. Complete this adjustment for
both the trunk and hip supports.
