6. Safety advisories for use
Abide by the following safety
advisories when using the chair:
Danger of slipping!
• Before use, check to be sure the seat is firmly
mounted onto the seat frame.
• Before using the chair, be sure to first lock the
castors in order to prevent the chair from
rolling away.
• When sitting down, do not sit on the front
seat edge or on the pad, instead sit on the
entire seat surface.
Danger of tipping over!
• The chair may be used when sitting, rolling, and in
the inclined and/or elevated position only when the
armrests are latched.
• The chair may be pushed only using the push bow
(backrest).
• The footrests must be swiveled away or folded up
before the patient sits down or gets up. User must
never attempt to stand on the footrests!
• The chair must not bump into door sills, thresholds
or surface protrusions.
• Use the chair only indoors, on solid, even,
non-slippery surfaces.
• Walk only at a modest speed when pushing the
chair (with or without the patient).
• Users must not lean out of the chair (when the
chair is still or in motion). If the swivel castors
are swiveled inwards, the stability of the chair is
decreased.
• Use care when moving the chair (without user)
in the inclined position and/or when it is at its
maximum height!
• The transfer of persons may be done only when the
chair is in the upright and the lowered position.

5
Danger of pinching!
• To prevent body parts, etc. from being pinched,
never reach into the hinge area when folding the
armrests up or down. See section 10.8, page 10
for more information.
• To prevent body parts or objects from getting
pinched, do not reach between the seat and the
frame when pressing the pad into the seat frame or
adjusting the inclination.
• Be sure other parts do not get jammed when folding
and unfolding the footrests.
• When adjusting the headrest, be sure that no body
parts or objects get pinched.
• There’s a risk of pinching soft flesh when pulling out
and pushing in the commode pan. To avoid injury,
the commode pan may be pulled out or pushed in
only when no one is sitting on the chair.
Danger of tipping!
• When standing up, sitting and moving with
the chair, do so only when both armrests are
latched in position.
• Sitting, standing up, moving, or laying in the chair
(when chair is in the inclined position) by the
patient, and lifting (height adjustment with lifting
unit) of the patient, are to be done only with the
help of a trained attendant. This depends on the
health condition of the patient.
• Before and during the placement of the patient on
the chair, the patient should firmly hold on to the
armrests.
• Use by patients who tend to have uncontrolled
movement and handling ability must not be done
without supervision.
• Travelling on an inclined surface or ramp may be
done only with the help of an attendant. In general
an upward grade may be travelled on while moving
forwards, and a downward grade while moving the
chair backwards.
Danger of breakage!
• The chair is suited only for the intended purpose.
Abide by the maximum allowable body weight
(specified on the nameplate)!
Danger of injury through temperature!
• There is a risk of injury at a surface temperature
over 104°F. Therefore never keep the chair near a
strong heat source including direct sunlight. Do not
store the chair near a heat source such as a heater,
or clean it with hot water). Allow the surface of
the chair to first cool off before use.
When the chair is to be used by patients
with insensitive skin (persons who cannot
feel temperature rises and / or have skin
damage), an attendant must rst check the
chair for heat (feel with the palm of the
hand). Observe Section 1.4
Safety advisory – lifting unit
Danger of pinching/crushing!
• When raising or lowering the chair height, observe
the warning advisories (stickers in the area of the
lifting unit). The lifting unit in part comprises
parts that move with respect to each other and thus
present a danger of pinching or crushing when not
properly operated or used. Therefore keep hands and
feet away from these parts, and do not reach into the
lifting unit during raising and lowering the chair.
• The hydraulic unit has a spring-loaded pedal
that returns on its own. Do not leave the chair
unattended while the pedal moves back because
there is a risk of injury.
Warning! Danger of injury!
• Be sure that no third party or object is in the area of
hazard when the lifting unit is raising or lowering.
• Before using the chair and the lifting unit, the chair
must be on a solid and stable surface.
• Use the lifting unit only with protected feet (proper
footwear) in order to avoid injury.
• Do not place any object on the foot pedal.
• Observe the maximum allowable patient body
weight, as the chair is designed only for this max.
load.
• There is a risk of slipping in the event of leaked
hydraulic oil. Before each use of the chair, check it
for leaks.
• If there is leakage from the hydraulic cylinder
(hydraulic oil leakage) and there is contact between
the fluid and an open flame or a hot surface, then it
could ignite. Be sure there is no risk of ignition!
• Do not stomp on the pedal and do not apply your
entire body weight to activate the pedal. One foot
must always remain firmly on the floor.

9. Setting up the chair for use
The product is delivered completely assembled in a
carton. Before using the first time, the chair first must
be checked over for transport damage. Settings and
adjustments may be done only by a qualified specialist.
The hydraulic system may need to be vented before
use because an air pocket may have formed during the
transport. See Section 13.2 on page 12.
9.1 Position of the footrests
Rotate the footrests (1) all the way to the front until
they latch in position. Next unfold the foot plates (2).
The foot plates may need to be height adjusted.
9.2 Adjusting the foot plate height
The foot plates are height-adjustable to four
positions. Remove the screws from the side at the
footrests using an SW 5 Allen key. Select the
appropriate level (1-4) and once again tighten the
screws at the foot plates.
Be sure that the screws are firm!
9.3 Installing, adjusting the headrest
Installation:
Flip the levers (A) upwards
and insert the tubes of
the headrest unit into the
openings.
Push the tubes down until
the push-buttons (C) click
in the holes (D).
Next push the button (C)
all the way in and push the
tube to the end and press
the levers (A) all the way
down.
Setting the height and depth:
To set the headrest height, flip both levers (A)
upwards and push the head rest to the appropriate
height.
The head rest can be
steplessly adjusted (ca.
4.72") until the button (D)
clicks into the hole
(end-position).
After setting, press both
levers (A) down again.
By removing the clips
(C), the headrests can be
removed for cleaning or for
replacing.
9.4 Setting the inclination
The backrest may be steplessly inclined back up to
approx. 37°. Here the seat inclines up to 12°. Next
pull the locking levers (A) vertically upward and
push the backrest (B) downward until the desired
position is reached. Next press the locking levers
(C) all the way down.
When adjusting the backrest
inclination, be sure that no body
parts or objects get pinched and that
the armrests are latched in position!

8
Maintenance advisories
If the function of the
locking lever becomes
difcult or too easy,
then the clamping
effect can be regulated
by an adjustment
maneuver.
Remove the cap. Using an SW 5 Allen key, the
clamping force is increased by rotating to the right, or
reduced by rotating to the left. After adjusting, check
the lever function for ease of motion.
Finally press the cap back on and latch the armrest
back into position.
9.5 Setting the headrest angle
By rotating knob (A), the headrest angle can be
adjusted.
Warning! Danger of pinching (B)
between the headrest and backrest!
9.6 Adjusting the seat height
The chair’s seat height is done in steps via the
hydraulic unit, by activating the foot pedal. The
chair is lifted approximately 0.59" per pedal stroke.
The patient can be lifted a maximum of 15.75".
For lowering the chair, pull up the pedal with your
foot.
Adhere to the warning signs!
9.7 Installing/removing the safety belt
The safety belt is already installed when the chair is
delivered. To remove it, fold away the armrests, as
described in Section 10.8 on page 9, and pull the
loops down from the armrest locking mechanism.
When re-installing, be sure the safety belt is not
twisted.

9
10. Using the chair
Clean the chair before rst-time use!
It must be ensured that the chair is in a proper and
safe condition before use.
If necessary, depending on the
patient’s limitations (adequate
mobility and muscle strength),
sitting down and standing up may be
done only with the assistance of an
attendant. Subsequent adjustments
may be carried out only by a
specialist!
10.1 Sitting down
Before sitting down it must be assured that the chair
is stable and secured against slipping away and
unfolding. The four castors must be locked and
both armrests must be securely latched in position.
Also the seat must be properly in place and the foot
plates must be moved to the side or folded up.
The patient must be positioned as near to the
chair as possible. By firmly holding on to the
armrests, the patient must then slowly sit down onto
the seat. If this is not possible due to physical
limitations, then the patient must be assisted by an
attendant.
In the event support cannot be sufficiently provided,
then it is necessary to use lift equipment, or a
patient lifter.
Danger of falling!
Dropping onto the chair seat must be avoided. The
patient must sit as much as possible over the entire
seat surface, and not only on the seat edge.
When transporting a person, the surface of the seat
and the backrest must be used as much as possible.
10.2 Standing up
Before standing up, it must be certain that the chair
is stable and secured against slipping away or
tipping over. The four wheels must be locked,
both armrests must be latched in position, the
footrests swiveled to the side or folded up, and the
patient must be sitting vertically (inclination setting
and the chair at the lowest position).
The patient must move forward on the seat surface
until the feet are flat on the floor.
By supporting him/herself firmly on the
armrests, the patient must then slowly get up from
the chair. The patient must not lean too far forward
in order to avoid the risk of falling down.
The patient should seek the assistance of an
attendant whenever standing up.
Danger of falling!
When sitting down or standing up (leaving the
chair), the patient must never stand on the footrests!
10.3 Sitting and laying down at the low position
&
When changing the inclination angle, the
safety belt first must be used (see Section 9.7 on
page 8). Moreover all four castor brakes must be
engaged (locked) beforehand (Section 10.5,
Schematic 1).

10
10.4 Sitting and laying while lifting
&
Should the patient be lifted by the lift mechanism,
then all four castor brakes must first be engaged
(Section 10.5, Schematic 1). The safety belt must
be fastened while the patient is sitting and laying
in order to improve the safety. Be sure that the
clamping lever for the inclination setting is locked
before the lifting begins.
Danger of tipping over!
• The inclination must not be extended when the
chair is completely elevated as there is a danger
of tipping over.
• The patient must not be purposely left
unattended in the elevated or inclined position.
• For safety reasons it is not permissible to drive
the chair in the raised position with the patient
on it.
• Make sure that the chair is in the lower position
before you release the brakes.
10.5 Using the castor locking brakes
Press the lever of the castor brake downward
with your foot (1). The wheel is now braked and the
castor locked against swiveling.
The wheel and castor are released by pressing
the lever upwards with your foot (2).
10.6 Removing the seat upholstery
The seat with (I) and without (O) hygiene opening,
the leg pad (K) and the backrest upholstery (H) can
be removed from their mountings in the chair frame
for cleaning purposes or for replacing (see
description on page 2).
10.7 Folding away the footrests
Flip the foot plates upwards and then lift the
footrests from the locking mechanism. The footrests
may now be folded back.
10.8 Swiveling away the armrests
By pulling out the latching pins (A) the locking
effect is disengaged and the armrests may be
swiveled back. Whenever swiveling the armrests
back, check to be sure that they are fully and
properly latched in the mounting mechanism of
the backrest (B) and that the latching pins (A) are
engaged. Swiveling the armrests is done with both
hands. Keep the locking pins (A) pulled out during
the entire swivel action, and move the armrest at
point C with the other hand. While doing so, touch
only the outside surfaces and do not grab into the
armrest or through it.
Check the latching mechanism on a
regular basis because possible caking
up of calcium deposits at the latching
area can adversely effect its function
and its ability to move properly.

11
10.9 Removing the footrests
Lift the footrests approx. 3.94" and rotate them
outward 90°. Now you are able to push the footrests
all the way up and to pull them out.
10.10 Using the commode pan
When using the chair (PU) with a commode pan, it
must be used only in the sitting position (1) and not
in the laying position (2) because the commode pan
will slide out!
Abide by the advisory sticker on the chair’s side
frame near the armrest.
Attention! Remove the
commode pan before inclining
the chair to the back!
How to use
Push in the commode pan (A) from the behind the
chair, by first removing the lid (B) under the seat.
To remove, lift the commode pan slightly and then
pull it out.
The armrests must be latched in position in order to
prevent the patient from falling off. After removing
the commode pan, the seat pad (C) must be put
back on the shower seat.

• There is a risk of slipping and falling if hydraulic
luid leaks out!
• Visually check the unit for leaks every time
before use.
• In the event of any inadequacies, do not put the
product to use and do not carry out any repairs
on your own.
• Contact EZ Way at (800) 627-8940.
→ Hydraulic unit
The hydraulic unit is a closed system and thus no
maintenance is needed, Note the following:
• The unit does not have an oil fill plug.
• The oil fill level cannot be checked.
• Do not open any screw on the unit for the
purpose of checking the oil or for filling.
• Venting:
To vent the hydraulic unit, the unit must be
removed. To do this, remove the keyrings at points
A and B, and then pull out both bolts from the
holder, one after the other.
To completely vent the unit, clamp it in the vertical
position with the piston extended out and wait ten
minutes. Suitable to use as a clamping point is the
port of the hydraulic unit at Point A.
Be sure that the strike plate does not get clamped
because it may be bent. First push it to the side.
Proceed with venting as follows:
1. Move the piston rod completely out by pressing
the pedal multiple times, and activate the pedal
multiple times after the end of the stroke is
reached. This will cause the unit to vent out by
itself via an integrated venting valve.
2. Drive entire hydraulic system back.
3. Plan maintenance time.
Repeat the process several times, or until the unit
reacts immediately to the pedal movement and the
system is rigid. Then the unit is vented.
Warning: There is a danger of
injury from slipping and pinching!
• Replacing the seals:
Due to aging of the seal material, the seals must
be replaced about every 6 years.
Contact EZ Way.
13.3 Fire protection – hydraulic system
Combustible hydraulic fluid is used. If leaks occur
from the unit and contact is made between the fluid
and an open flame or a hot surface, then the fluid
could ignite.
It must first be assured that fires can be put out
immediately with proper extinguishers.
