The Travelite Chair in a Bag is a lightweight yet study aluminium
framed porterage chair. It is easily transportable and comes with a
compact carry bag making it ideal for stowing in car boots, coaches,
aircra, etc. It is ideal for occasional use both indoors and outdoors
where the terrain is forgiving (e.g. shopping precincts, airports).

aendant pushing the chair.

seat. Ensure the seat is folded out fully otherwise the armrests
may not locate properly.
2. Flip the arm rests around until

buon will click to indicate that
the armrest has securely locked
in position.
3. Pull down the footplate receivers.
Then push the brass buon and
pull down whilst rotating the
footplate until it locks in to
position (as shown in the photo

handle is securely locked.

2. Pull the armrest release buon whilst pulling up on the armrest to
release. Flip the armrest back until they are hanging vertically down
from the chair.

the brass push buon and push the footplate back whilst rotating
approximately 90º until it locates in the receiver hole nearest
the chair.
4. Li the chair by the two li up straps and the chair should naturally
fold up. The chair can be carried using the li up straps.
5. If required, unzip the carry bag and insert the chair. If necessary
rotate the front castors to allow the chair to fit in the bag. Zip up the
bag and carry using the two handles.
