6.3 ONE-HAND CORD RELEASE MECHANISM
1. Thread the nylon cord through the holes in the latch mechanism at the top of the
left and right mounting plates (A)
2. Install the cord lock mechanism onto the cord (B). Press the button to open the lock
mechanism and slide the two open ends of the nylon cord through the opening.
3. With the back properly installed on the wheelchair, adjust the cord length so that it
hangs at approximately a 35-45° angle along the back pan (C) (this allows the release
mechanism to operate more effectively). If necessary, cut/remove excess cord to
eliminate any risk of entanglement. Once adjusted, combine the loose cord ends into a
single knot to prevent the cord-lock from slipping (D).

If the cord length was modified, carefully melt
the ends of the cord to prevent fraying.
