Anything else is a compromise.™

Invacare®Solara®Wheelchair

The first generation Invacare®Solara®, the foundation of our revolutionary Solara tilt-in-space

wheelchairs, sets the standard for quality, durability and design.

55 Degrees of Tilt

With 45 degrees of posterior tilt,

the Solara allows the caregiver

to change the consumer’s

positioning throughout the day

for comfort/pain relief, muscle

tone management, pressure

relief, feeding/swallowing and

postural support. 10 degrees of

anterior tilt facilitates additional

positioning or transfers. A simple

angle indicator provides

Invacare

caregivers with a point of

reference when positioning the

consumer for different activities.

Stable Base

®

Wheelchair

With a wheelbase shorter than

fixed pivot point tilts, the Solara

balances the consumer within

the footprint of the wheelchair.

This provides maximum stability

even when seating is mounted in

front of the back canes. There is

no guesswork or adjustment to

balance the consumer within the

base frame.

A flared front end adds stability

to the chair and reduces

interference between casters and

legrests for consumers with tight

hamstrings. Additionally, a flared

front end provides clearance for

erratic foot propellers, such as

consumers with traumatic brain

injury or developmental

challenges.

Integrated, welded head tubes provide

maximum durability. 6" x 2" semi-

pneumatic casters are a good choice for

clearing thresholds.

Optional Dorsi / Plantar adjustable angle

footplatesallow you to adjust angle with

foot on footplate.

Adjustableangle rigidizing handle bar

provides thegreatest range of adjustment

for caregivers short or tall.
