ination and adjustment guide
The QUADTRO SELECT has four compartments of air cells. When the ISOFLO
®
Memory Control is open, the air ows freely between the compartments. When the ISOFLO is closed, the air
is “locked” within each compartment. The ination level of each compartment can be separately adjusted. This allows you to correct or accommodate side-to-side and/or anterior-posterior
asymmetries of the pelvis and upper legs. NOTE: Before adjusting the cushion for an asymmetry, you MUST adjust the air ination level to the proper cushion ination setting as outlined below.
After overinating the cushion, perform a hand check to
adjust to the proper cushion ination setting:
QUADTRO SELECT setup Hand check results
Inate and adjust the ROHO QUADTRO
SELECT cushion for a new individual.
1. Place the QUADTRO SELECT cushion in the
wheelchair with the air cells facing up and the
non-skid surface of the cover facing down.
2. Before inating, you must
open the ISOFLO Memory
Control so that all of the air
cells will inate. Push the
ISOFLO green knob toward
the unlocked position.
3. Slide the rubber nozzle of the hand pump over the
ination valve. Pinch the nozzle, turn to open the
ination valve, and overinate the air cells.
QUADTRO SELECT adjustment
Check the ination level daily
by performing a hand check.
Re-adjust the ination level only as
needed (typically every 3-4 months).
Proper cushion ination setting
½” – 1” (1.5 cm – 2.5 cm)
— If you can slightly move your ngertips: the cushion
is at the Proper Cushion Ination Setting (½” - 1” air
between the lowest bony prominence and the seat
surface) and no further adjustment is needed.
— If you can easily move your ngertips: there is too
much air between the lowest bony part prominence
and the seat surface. Open the ination valve and
slowly release air until you can barely move your
ngertips, then close the valve.
— If you cannot move your ngertips at all: there is
too little/no air between the lowest bony prominence
and the seat surface. Open the ination valve and
slowly add air until you can slightly move your
ngertips, then close the valve.
See reverse side for instructions on how to adjust
QUADTRO SELECT for postural asymmetries.
