4.9.2 CENTER OF GRAVITY ADJUSTEMENT

The adjustment of the center of gravity is necessary in order to preserve a good stability

of the wheelchair. The

wheelchair

allows seven (7) adjustment positions. The

choice of these positions is the responsibility of the occupational therapist

(see; figure 19).

The tables below, (next page) determines the allowed configurations, and mentions the

maximum seat tilt angle.

Figure 26 : Rear wheel axle positions for the center of gravity adjustment.

The adjustments of your wheelchair must be made

by a health care professional. Inadequate adjustments can

cause wounds and/or damage to the user, the caregiver, the

wheelchair or the environment.

There is no center of gravity adjustment if your wheelchair is

equipped with a mid-wheel option.
