Assembly, Use, Maintenance & Limitations
•
Adjustments to the set-up of the wheelchair must only be carried out by a qualified therapist, professional,
or seating technician. Custom contoured/bespoke systems may require a qualified professional to configure
and install the seating system.
•
After carrying out any adjustments ensure all bolts, screws and nuts are securely fastened again to ensure
safety when travelling in a vehicle.
•
Ensure the front and rear mounts of the seat pan are installed as far apart from each other as possible to give
a stronger 4-point attachment to the wheelchair frame.
•
Ensure all quick release latches on the back support, seat base, medial thigh support, arm support, head
support are engaged.
•
Do not use the Wonderseat Seating Systems as a vehicle seat if seating components which have not been
successfully crash tested are used anywhere on the seating system. The Seating System is designed and
certified using only Spex components. Spex is not liable in the event where other manufactured seating systems
are used in conjunction with Wonderseat Seating Systems.
•
At regular intervals check that all the fastenings on the Wonderseat Seating Systems have not become loose
during day to day use and re-tighten if necessary.
•
Ensure the swing-away laterals are in their locked position before using the seat as a vehicle seat in a motor vehicle.
•
Do not use the Tray Table when using the seat as a vehicle seat in a motor vehicle.
Correct Positioning of Vehicle Belt Restraints
