7. Trunk support height: Loosen the two adjustment levers
(4) on the back of the trunk support clamp plates.
Position the trunk support so the distance from the top of
the trunk support to the top of the sit bar is equal to
measurement #3. Tighten both adjustment levers.
Pitch:
Refer to figure 9 & 10.
The child s shoulders should be
positioned slightly in front of his/her
lower body and feet (in most
situations) with the pitch of the
column at approximately 85 degrees
to the floor. Occasionally the column
will be positioned in a more upright,
or more prone position, to improve
the child s gait pattern or to diminish
primitive reflex patterning.
1. To achieve forward tilt of the upper
body, unfasten the trunk support
straps, shorten the back strap, and
lengthen the front strap.
Lengthening the back strap and shortening the front strap
tilts the upper body backward.
2. If more pitch is needed, the rear column can be tilted
forward. Loosen the two allen screws on the upper tube
clamp assembly (fig.9.1). Raise the upper clamp
assembly and frame brace while tilting the column
forward (fig 10).When the desired angle is achieved
tighten the allen screws to secure the column. Note:
lowering the upper tube clamp assembly will tilt the
column back upright.
