Step 3:
Adjusting the seat cushion length
Pull the handle (10) up as far as it will go, thus unlocking
the seat cushion. If you shift your weight, the seat cush-
ion can be moved backwards and forwards in six stages.
The seat cushion length should be adjusted so that the
thigh to just before the hollow of the knee can rest slightly
on the edge of the seat cushion without pressure being
exerted. A distance of between two and three finger
widths between the hollow of the knee and the seat
cushion edge acts as a rule of thumb.
Step 4:
Adjusting the seat tilt
Pull the handle (5) up as far as it will go, thus unlocking
the seat tilt function. The desired position can be individu-
ally selected by shifting your weight back or forward and
fixed it by releasing the handle.
The seat tilt must be selected in such a way that the
pedals can be fully pushed down with the legs slightly
bent. The thighs should rest lightly on the seat, without
feeling pressure from the front edge of the seat cushion.
Remember also, that if the cushion angle is too flat you
may slip forward which results in removal of support
from the backrest. On the other hand, too steep an
angle can increase the pressure on the lumbar spine
and thighs.
