1. Device Plan
XL5
The XL5 folding manual wheelchair with a lightweight aluminum frame provides
remarkable versatility and adaptability. The numerous adjustments ensure a
personalized postural support throughout the occupant’s changing needs and
clinical conditions. Also known for its legendary sturdiness, the XL5 optimizes
manual propulsion and facilitates daily transfers to ensure the occupant’s autonomy.
Designed to meet the specific needs of each individual, the XL5 stands out with its
various optional components and adjustments. With a low seat-to-floor height of
11½'' (280 mm), the lowest in the industry, the XL5 facilitates foot propulsion and is
an excellent choice for shorter individuals.
Developed for individuals weighing 265 lbs or less, the XL5 can be used by adults or
elderly clients, who are experiencing a loss in mobility or have a medical condition.
It is primarily meant for use in long-term care facilities, public or private retirement
homes or wheelchair accessible private housing. Use in a controlled outdoor
environment is also possible.
