Loosely assemble the clamps onto the back canes at the
desired location talked about in step 3. Bolts should thread
inwards from the outside of the chair. Tighten clamp enough
so it stays in place and repeat on opposite side.
Use a level and a tape measure to ensure the clamps are
level and the distance from backcane to clamp mount is 1/2”.

Adjust the depth and angle by moving the backrest assembly
to the desired positions. With position determined, ensure
the bolts are secured in the same scallop on the bracket on
both sides of the chair.
Hold the backrest shell against the chair at approximate height
desired. Find a back cane location that can accomodate the
clamp near the center of the slots on the backrest bracket.
Typically the backrest will rest 1-2” above the cushion.
Ensure same
scallop is used

Fitting Adjustments (User Present)
WARNING: IT MAY BE POSSIBLE TO ADJUST THE FINAL POSITION OF THE AXIOM BACK WITH AN END USER
SEATED IN HIS WHEELCHAIR. THIS REQUIRES THAT THE END USER BE ABLE TO SIT IN A STABLE POSITION
WITHOUT THE USE OF THE BACKREST. IT MAY ALSO BE POSSIBLE IF THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO CAN
SUPPORT THE END USER DURING ADJUSTMENT. THIS SHOULD BE VERIFIED BY A CLINICIAN TRAINED TO
MAKE THAT DETERMINATION. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE WHEELCHAIR WHEEL LOCKS AND ANTI-TIPS ARE
SET AND LOCKED. IF THESE CONDITIONS CANNOT BE MET, THE END USER SHOULD TRANSFER FROM THE
WHEELCHAIR BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS. FAILURE TO TAKE THESE PRECAUTIONS MAY RESULT IN A
FALL AND THE POTENTIAL FOR A SERIOUS INJURY.
12
Perform Check -
a. Tighten all fasteners completely and assure that the hardware does not move out of the adjusted position
under the load of the user.
b. Verify the back releases and latches easily.
c. Lift the backrest up by the strap and ensure it stays locked in.

Asegurarse que los elementos estén ensamblados a cada
lado a la misma altura, y que los soportes de las abrazaderas
(paso 5, imagen A) estén paralelos entre sí y con igual
orientación.

Quitar la carcasa del respaldo de su revestimiento.
Instalar el soporte del respaldo en la carcasa mediante
la placa de fijación perforada (A), dos arandelas (B) y
dos tuercas cerradas (C). Las placas de fijación
perforadas deben quedar a 1” de la parte superior de la
ranura de cada soporte. Apretar levemente el hardware y
repetir en el otro lado. Nota: asegurarse que el cordón

ADVERTENCIA: ES POSIBLE REGULAR LA POSICIÓN FINAL DEL ESPALDAR AXIOM MIENTRAS EL USUARIO
ESTÁ SENTADO EN SUSILLA DE RUEDAS SÓLO SI PUEDE GUARDAR UNA POSICIÓN ESTABLE SIN APOYARSE
EN EL RESPALDO. ESTO TAMBIÉN SERÁ POSIBLE CON LA AYUDA DE PERSONAS QUE SOSTENGAN AL
USUARIO DURANTE LA REGULACIÓN. UN MÉDICO ESPECIALIZADO EN ESTOS CASOS PODRÁ DETERMI-
NARLO. VERIFICAR SIEMPRE QUE LOS SEGUROS DE LAS RUEDAS Y LOS ANTIVUELCO DE LA SILLA ESTÉN
ACTIVADOS Y FIRMES EN SU LUGAR - SI NO FUERA POSIBLE, EL USUARIO DEBERÁ TRANSFERIRSE DE LA
SILLA DE RUEDAS PARA PODER PROCEDER A LA REGULACIÓN. DEBE OBSERVARSE ESTA PRECAUCIÓN
PARA EVITAR CAÍDAS Y POTENCIALES DAÑOS GRAVES.
