comfortable and low-maintenance design. The JAY Go incorporates a
wipeable outer cover and a dual layer foam base.

reduce the incidence of decubitus ulcers. It is comfortable and doesn't
restrict movement, allowing the user to change positions on the cushion.
The maximum user weight for this product is 300 lbs. for 14" to 21" and
500 lbs. for 22" to 24".
JAY GO COMPONENTS
FITTING A PRESSURE DISTRIBUTING CUSHION
Select a cushion to match your hip width when in the seated position.The
cushion length should extend to within 1" - 2" (2.5cm - 5cm) from the back
of the knees. Place the cushion to the back of the wheelchair with the
material identification tags and pelvic loading area toward the rear. When fit
correctly, your hips should be to the back of the chair. Your ischials (seat
bones) should be centered in the rear of the cushion. Proper footrest
adjustment may enhance sitting comfort and help lower peak sitting pres-
sures. Adjust the footrests so your legs rest firmly but comfortably on the
cushion.
Avoid using the cushion on overly stretched seat upholstery. Stretched
upholstery does not provide adequate support for the cushion and improp-
er positioning may result. Replace stretched upholstery or purchase the JAY
Adjustable Solid Seat.
Avoid using overly stretched backrest upholstery. Stretched back upholstery
does not provide adequate support for the body and improper positioning
may result. Replace stretched backrest upholstery or purchase a back sup-
port product from Sunrise that is appropriate for you. Contact an author-
ized supplier for a free demonstration of these products.
