Equipment damage –
Be sure to lift the moving bracket for
dorsal extension / plantar flexion (15) a
little, relieving the strain on it, before
you either press the locking pins for the
height adjustment together or loosen
the clamping lever for adjustment of the
inclination (5).
3. Release the locking device (19). To do so,
first relieve the strain on the carriage by
lifting the moving bracket for dorsal ex-
tension / plantar flexion (15) a little. Then
press the two black pins of the locking
device together simultaneously (Fig. A).
4. Set the carriage to an angle of approx.
60°, then release the pins of the locking
device. Check that the pins engage in the
perforation (20).
5. Again, hold the moving bracket for
dorsal extension / plantar flexion (15) and
release the clamping lever for adjust-
ment of the inclination (5). Then lower
the moving bracket for dorsal extension /
plantar flexion (15) until it forms an angle
of 45° with the base. Close the clamping
lever to lock the carriage in that position
(Fig. B).
