Netti V Base
Netti V Base - ideal for a customised seating seating solution.
High five for the perfect fit!
Netti V Base combines the advantages of an active and a comfort wheelchair and is ideal as a seat base.
Extra cross bar in the back for mounting of moulded seats
Flexible seat depth and width
Flexible seat height
Perfect balancing point
Built-in leg abduction
This innovative design makes it easy to adapt the chair to changing user needs or new users - often even without having to add new accessories.
Netti V has a unique seat height solution. We can offer a seat height of 386 mm and still mount 24” main wheels and 7” front wheels. This makes it possible to maintain good driving characteristics and enable hand or foot propelling of the chair.
This ensures a great driving experience!
Over the time the health status of the user might change. An active user, who used to hand propel the chair, might be in need of help from an attendant to stay mobile. The seat height can then be changed up to 486 mm by changing the wheel position, but with the same parts.
In other words:
- 70 mm seat height adjustment without change of wheel position, wheel size, or the need of any extra parts.
- 100 mm seat height adjustment without change of wheel size, or the need of any extra parts.
- 169 mm seat height adjustment when changing wheel size and position.

Netti V Base offers many built-in adjustment options making the wheelchair flexible to changing needs - or new users:
Netti V Base provides a unique seat height flexibility, which makes it possible to change the seat height
- to fit multiple activity levels without changing parts
- to have low seat height with large wheels for comfortable driving
- without changing wheel position
The seat height adjustment thereby allows the wheelchair to follow the progression of the user’s illness, from All-round wheelchair propelled by foot or hand to Comfort wheelchair.

If you use the wheelchair in its standard seat width, the total width will be 195 mm wider than the seat width.
If you adjust the seat width to the max, total width will be actual frame seat width + 245 mm.
Example:
450 mm wheelchair adjusted in seat width 450 mm has a total width of 645 mm
450 mm wheelchair adjusted in seat width 500 mm has a total width of 695 mm
Stepless sideway adjustment of the head support
To accomodate for an asymmetrical head position, the sidewards adjustable head support adapter can easily be moved on the push bar by loosening the star wheel.
Built-in leg abduction and extension pieces
For Netti V we also offer many leg support solutions. Common for all are that the extension pieces can be adjusted in width in case the user has mobility or positioning challenges at the legs and/or hip/pelvis. The built-in stepless leg abduction of up to 25 mm per side is standard.
For the fitting, the use of the optional pelvic positioner guide might also be of importance to secure that the hips are equally supported.

Netti V Base is designed to be easy to use in everyday life as well as when the wheelchair is to be fitted for the user upon delivery. This makes it easy to handle for all parties involved.
Just to mention some features that makes this chair extraordinary easy to use:
- There are only 2 handles - tilt/recline and drum brake handle in one
- Foot-operated anti tippers
- Readable scales for easy adjustments
- Color-marked adjustment points
The same wheelchair can be used for a long time
Due to the design of Netti V Base, the same wheelchair can be used for a long time. There is no need to change wheelchair when the user’s activity level changes or by minor changes in body messurements.
The Netti V Base is ideal for user with need of special seat units like a moulded seat or Ride Design seating systems. The users are typically sitting in the chair for 8+ hours per day. It will fit both young and geriatric users of all sizes. The chair works well for users being transferred by hoist or to the side.
