• For safe transportation of a client within a wheelchair in a motor vehicle, refer to the user
manuals for the wheelchair and the tie-down and occupant restraint system (WTORS).

the back is recommended for a headrest application.

Our FLIPP LOXX™Mounting Hardware incorporates a lock/release latch mechanism to temporarily
rotate the headrest*by 90° without requiring complete detachment. The Flipp Loxx™Hardware is
designed for use with most industry standard headrest pads, and is fully compatible with our line of
Matrx Elan Headrest Pads (*headrest pads are sold separately).

hardware is installed from the inside of the back shell)
FLIPP LOXX™HARDWARE INSTALLATION: (see Fig 3):
•Loosen set-screw (d) and remove the lower D-Ring (D2) from the headrest post (1).
•Install the headrest post (F) into the mounting clamp assembly (E), and adjust the headrest post
to the desired height/position (2). (note: loosen upper D-Ring if necessary)
•Tighten the mounting clamp (E) to secure the headrest post in position (3).
•Adjust the upper D-Ring (D1) so that it rests flush with the top of the mounting clamp (4), then secure
the D-Ring into place via the set-screw (d).
•Reinstall and secure the Lower D-Ring (D2) onto the headrest post (5) so that it rests flush with the
bottom of the mounting clamp assembly.
HEADREST POST MODIFICATIONS:
If necessary, the headrest post (F) can be cut (shortened) to prevent any collision interference along
the back of the wheelchair/seating system. (Note: After cutting the post, the plastic end cap (G)can
be removed and re-installed into the newly cut post).
HEADREST PAD ADJUSTMENT: (see Fig 4):
Loosen the locking lever (A1) or locking screw (A2) on the upper pivot assembly (B). Slide the
horizontal bar (C) to the desired depth inside the upper pivot (1), and adjust the headrest angle by
pivoting/rotating the upper pivot to achieve the desired headrest position (2). Re-tigthen the locking
lever/locking screw (B) to secure the headrest into position.

To ‘flip-back’ the headrest, depress the release button (H) on the latch mechanism (1). To return the
headrest to its original position, simply lift upward on the headrest until the latch mechanism is
re-engaged (2). (The latch will lock in place automatically)
