Footrests
Various footboards are available.
These can be flipped up to
make it easier to transfer to/from
the chair. They are described
individually.
Footrest and swing away latch
When fitting the footrests these
are fitted in the swung-away
position (Fig. 5.17). Then simply
turn them inwards until the
interlock engages (1). To remove
the footrests, use the lever (2)
and swing the footrest outwards
and lift off. Check that the
footrest is correctly engaged.
WARNING!
The footrests are not designed
to be used to lift or carry the
wheelchairs with an occupant.
Hanger play adjustment
In case of play the hanger (Fig. 5.18) can be adjusted in the
field. The hanger pin (1) is tapered and the play can be reduced
when the pin is unscrewed slightly.
Take the hanger off the chair in using the release mechanism.
Use an screw driver and turn the pin (1) in the front carefully
to the left. Then test the hanger on the chair. If the hanger
mechanism is not working/catching anymore, please undo the
task slightly.
If the play is still too large and the performance not accepted,
please repeat the task.
Lower leg lengths
By undoing the clamp screw
(Fig. 5.19), you can adjust the
lower leg length. Loosen the
clamp screw, adjust the tube
with the footboard to the desired
position.
Tighten clamp screws again (see
the page on torque). Ensure that
the plastic push joint is located
under the clamp screw in the
correct position.
WARNING!
Do not stand on the footboard!
When transferring, do not stand on the footboard, there is a risk
of tipping over and injury.

High-Mount Footrest
(Fig. 5.20 - 5.20.1)
The footplates can be flipped up to
facilitate getting in and out of your
wheelchair.
The footplates can be adjusted within
their angle of inclination, relative to
a level surface. Loosen the screws
(1 to 2). Then set the footplates
to the desired angle. Afterwards,
tighten all screws. After adjustment,
always make sure that all screws
are tightened properly (see the page
on Torque). In order to avoid the
wheelchair tipping over, make sure
that the minimum interval of 25mm
between the foot rest tubing and the
ground is maintained (with horizontal
seat).
Automatic folding footrest
The footrest angle can be adjusted by loosening the screws
(1) and turning the footrest. When tightening, please note the
torque measurements, (Fig.5.20.2).
