V. SET UP & USE OF YOUR WHEELCHAIR
R. Backrest
3. Backrest Angle Adjustment (Fig. 25)
There are a series of 10 holes used for adjusting the angle of your Rogue backrest (Fig. 25:C).
Each hole will change the angle by 3 degree (+/-). Moving the placement of the screw (Fig. 25:A)
into a locating hole further towards the front of the chair will result in opening of the back angle.
Choosing a hole location closer to the rear of the chair results in closing of the back angle.
To adjust the angle of the backrest:
1. Using a 3mm Allen wrench and an 8mm socket wrench, remove the screw (Fig. 25:A) and
nut (Fig. 25:B) on the backrest plate (Fig. 25) where angle adjustment holes are located
(Fig. 25:D).
2. Align the backrest tube and saddle with desired hole and reinsert screw (Fig. 25:A) through
locating holes, plastic saddle and into the backrest tube (Fig. 25:C).
3. Repeat on opposite side, taking care to place in same location on both sides of the
backrest in order to achieve an even backrest angle.
4. Replace washer and retighten the 8mm nut (Fig. 25:B) until securely fastened.
5. Repeat on opposite side.
NOTE: Lowering backrest height or changing the back angle may decrease rearward stability.
Always make adjustments in small increments and check the stability of your chair with a spotter
to prevent a tip-over.
WARNING: Failure to heed these instructions may result in a fall, tip-over or loss of control
causing severe injury to the user or others.
