Adjusting the angle of the seat
Place the child on the saddle seat and tighten the belt. Make
sure the child is placed well into the seat in the midline
position with symmetry in the legs / lower body. Use the
hip belt both to maintain the position in the saddle seat
and to reduce the risk of falling out of the chair. It should be
used at all times. The angle of the seat can be adjusted by
loosen 4 screws under the seat, using the accompanying 4
mm Allen key (fig. 03) Adjust the angle to desired position
and tighten the screws.
It is important to tighten the screws properly after
adjustment.
The height of the seat can be adjusted by 2 screws under
the seat, where the rods are sticking up from the frame
(fig. 04). Simply loosen the screws and place the height
of the seat in desired position.
It is important to tighten the screws properly after

The tipping point can be adjusted by moving the seat
forward or backward along the frame. Simply loosen
two screws under the seat using the accompanying
4 mm Allen key (fig. 06). Slide the seat into desired
position and tighten the screws properly.
However, we recommend a representative from Krabat
AS together with the local therapist for this adjustment.
This is to ensure optimal point of tipping and safe use
of the wheelchair. When changing the point of tipping
we also alter the tipping angle.
It is important to tighten the screws properly after
adjustment.
The parking brake is activated by pressing the handle
in front of the seat downwards (fig. 07). The parking
brake locks both propelling wheels at the same time.
The parking brake is deactivated by pulling the handle
upwards (fig. 08).
Always activate the parking brake when taking a child
in or out of the wheelchair. The parking brake should
not be used whilst the wheelchair is moving. This could
cause dangerous situations.
The wires for the parking brake might need adjustment
when used for a period of time. If so contact Krabat AS
or a representative for Krabat AS.
