CUSHION ADJUSTABILITY

Fluid and Air Adjustability
The Fusion Cushion offers volume adjustability to accommodate for
users needs through the determination of the correct amount of
fluid made by your clinician during evaluation.
The determination of Air Single or Air Dual Models is also made by
your clinician during evaluation. The inserts should only be
changed at the direction of your clinician.

FITTING A PRESSURE DISTRIBUTING
CUSHION
Fitting the cushion
Select a cushion to match your hip width when in the seated posi-
tion. 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 pressure
relieving pad toward the rear. When fit correctly, your hips should
be to the back of the chair. Your ischials (seat bones) should be
centered on the insert in the pelvic loading area of the cushion.
Proper footrest adjustment may enhance sitting comfort and help
lower peak sitting pressures . 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 improper positioning may result. Replace stretched
upholstery or purchase the JAY Adjustable Solid Seat.
Reference the ROHO ® DRY FLOATATION
Supplement for proper fitting and set-up instructions.
