If the rear wheels are in the standard position, this shift can cause the chair to tip backward. The set-back rear wheel position on the WCR1816E compensates for this by moving the rear axle further back, keeping the chair stable throughout the full recline range. The rear anti-tippers provide an additional layer of safety against tipping during reclining maneuvers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the pneumatic piston on the leg rests work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe pneumatic piston allows the leg rests to be raised or lowered to any angle within their range and held in place without tools or manual locking mechanisms. The piston uses air pressure to maintain the selected position, providing smooth, stepless adjustment. This is particularly useful in clinical settings where caregivers need to reposition a patient's legs quickly and precisely without stopping to engage a locking pin or lever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the headrest removable and adjustable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The 13\" headrest extension is removable and can be detached when not needed. The head immobilizer provides lateral support to keep the user's head centered and supported during full recline. For users who do not require head support, the headrest can be removed to reduce the overall chair height and weight. Reattachment is straightforward and does not require tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the upholstery cleaned and maintained?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe black padded nylon upholstery is designed to resist mildew and bacteria and can be wiped down with standard clinical disinfectants between uses. Avoid soaking the upholstery or using harsh solvents that could degrade the fabric or padding over time. For facilities with infection control protocols, the wipe-clean surface makes the WCR1816E practical for shared or multi-patient use environments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Complete Medical","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40388926734390,"sku":"WCR1816E","price":499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1443\/4772\/products\/WCR1816E.jpg?v=1662862135","url":"https:\/\/www.precisionlabworks.com\/products\/probasics-reclining-wheelchair-18x16-desk-arms-90-160-recline-elevating-leg-rests-wcr1816e","provider":"Precision Lab Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
