More Details
The wheelchair has an extended backrest and removable elevating legrests, but does not fold or dismantle. The reclining action is gas assisted by a pneumatic cylinder. Electrically operated reclining action and legrest elevation is an available option.
The backrest can be reclined into four different angles of recline. The maximum angle is 60 degrees from the upright position. The backrest can be reclined by squeezing levers on both the right and left hand side adjacent to the pushing handles.
The tilt in space mechanism has three positions, with the maximum angle at 30 degrees. The chair is tilted by squeezing the internal levers on the right and left hand side, adjacent to the pushing handles. Applying the brakes before reclining or tilting the chair will provide extra leverage.
