Description:
The Uplift StumpRest is a retractable, bilateral stump support system integrated into a drop seat for wheelchairs. This combination offers below-knee amputees an affordable two-in-one wheelchair seat base to meet postoperative and everyday needs. The Uplift StumpRest 18" is all new and completely redesigned. This version features an EBS plastic and aluminum design which is warp-proof and easy to care for. Retractable sliders also feature an automatic locking mechanism which holds the slider in the extended or retracted position. How to Use the Uplift StumpRest Step 1 Position the stumprest drop base in a manual wheelchair (it will fit most cross-frame wheelchairs). Step 2 Lock down the base using at least two locking devices -- one covering a back drop hook, the other over the diagonal front drop hook. Step 3 Pull out the right or left stump support as required, and place the support cushion (Velcro side down), on the support. Place the user's wheelchair cushion on the base, and StumpRest is now ready for use.
