Factory setting for Fixed backrest is Standard position “A”, for Recliner backrest is
Passive position “B” or “C” for some configuration. Refer to detail “A” of FIGURE 5.6 .
W A R N I N G
The two mounting screws need to be two adjustment holes apart to maintain frame
integrity. Respect factory settings related to backrest type (“A” for Fixed, “B” for
Recliner), refer to detail “A” of FIGURE 5.6 .

switched to the front of the back cane bracket.
