ADJUSTMENTS OF THE COMPONENT PARTS OF THE WHEELCHAIR
INCLINE OF THE BACKREST
The backrest can be reclined by 50° using the two levers underneath the push handles.
When the backrest is in the full reclining position the wheelchair is so balanced that there
is no possibility that the chair will fall backwards because of the natural positions of the big
rear wheels.
If the user's gravity is effected for any reason such as amputation please contact Dupont
or its agents to obtain an extension kit so that the wheels can be moved back in the
correct position (see diagram of the kit opposite).
