USING THE PARKING BRAKES
Brakes on Levina 320-2
The Levina 320-2 is outtted with four 5-inch
swivel wheels. The two rear ones are equipped
with total locks. When the respective total lock is
engaged, the swivel wheel is braked and also
prevented from rotating. To ensure a rm foot-
ing, always engage both total locks.
1. Actuate the total lock mechanism by stepping
on the locking rocker of both rear wheels. (1,
Fig. 10)
2. To release the total lock, step on the small
rocker lever (2, Fig. 10).
Brakes on Levina 400-2
The shower commode chair has one parking
brake on either side. They can be used to park the
shower commode chair safety. They are not suit-
able for braking while in motion! For this pur-
pose, the push rims are to be used. To brake, use
your palms to apply light pressure. (see chapter
„Levina 400-2 propelling and slowing down“).
1. Push both brake levers forwards (1) until they
snap perceptibly into place and the brake
pads (2) lock the wheels into place (Fig. 11).
2. To release the parking brakes: Pull the brake
levers back towards the rear.
WARNING
Risk of injury: Do not use the parking brakes to stop the shower commode chair during motion, as
this may cause the wheels to lock.
If a brake is damaged, discontinue use of the shower commode chair immediately.

TRANSPORT
The shower commode chair is not a device for frequent transport. Should it be necessary to
transport the chair, we recommend disassembling it according above assembly instructions in
reverse. The shower commode chair should be packed such that it is in a stable position and
there is no danger of sudden and dangerous movements in the means of transport.
If you have to carry the assembled Levina, we recommend that you remove the footrests before
lifting the shower commode chair by using both sides of the seat frame.
WARNING
Risk of injury: Never lift the wheelchair by the footrest suspensions or the leg rests.
ACCESSORIES & ADD-ONS FROM EXTERNAL SUPPLIERS
Generally, only original accessories from DIETZ GmbH are permitted to be used. If third-party products
are installed on the shower commode chair, responsibility for the safety of the product passes to the
person who installs the accessories or carries out the installation. A new declaration of the compliance
of the combination of accessories or add-on and product is then to be made by the person who at-
taches it. The compliance declared by DIETZ according to MDR 2017/745, Annex II shall expire.
WARNING
Safety hazard: Should add-ons or accessories that are not sold by DIETZ be used, the safety of the
product cannot be guaranteed.

IMPORTANT NOTES FOR MAKING ADJUSTMENTS
Accessories are sometimes required for the settings described below. Only original accessories
from DIETZ may be used. Only then is the compliance and thus the safety of the product guaran-
teed.
When setting up a new user for the first time, all wheelchair adjustments must be carried out by
qualified specialists so that correct positioning and safety can be guaranteed.
WARNING
Complex adjustment tasks that can result in a risk of accident if not performed correctly must only
be conducted by designated specialist staff and are labelled accordingly. “Only to be performed by
specialist staff”.
This applies in particular to adjusting the brakes and for settings that affect the stability of the
wheelchair.

clamp bracket.
2. Loosen the four screws of the pail rails on the underside using a Phillips screwdriver.
