(right rear caster)
total
locking caster
All Lumex Clinical Care Recliners now feature the latest design, all-plastic casters from
TENTE, shown above. Specically designed for use in healthcare environments, the new
casters are easier to clean, easier to move, and tolerate a wide array of cleaners and
chemicals. Each caster is made from high-grade synthetic materials and features a double-
ball bearing swivel head. The wheel center is made of polypropylene and the tire tread
of TENTEprene (thermoplastic rubber). The gray non-marking tires feature precision ball
bearings.
Locking casters
Each Lumex Clinical Care Recliner features three total locking casters, identied by black
actuator tabs, that lock both the wheel and the swivel. To activate the total lock, simply
press down on the BLACK actuator tab until it locks. To release the total lock, press on the
raised portion of the actuator tab until the lever is back in the normal operating position.
Directional (swivel) caster
The fourth caster, located on the right rear position of the recliner, is a directional (swivel)
locking caster only. Identied by a green actuator tab, the directional lock caster will lock
in one of two 180-degree positions relative to the frame (forward and backward) and allows
the recliner to track straight when pushed. To activate the directional lock, simply press
down on the GREEN actuator tab until it locks — you may need to move the recliner slightly
until the caster locks in a straight line with the recliner frame. To release the directional
lock, press on the raised portion of the actuator tab until the lever is back in the normal
operating position.

RECLINER OPERATION
The Lumex Series FR601 and FR601H Recliners feature three positions for patient comfort.
The fourth position is a Trendelenburg (or Shock Position) that must be activated by a
caregiver. The Trendelenburg Position CANNOT be activated by a patient while in the
recliner.
First Position (Upright Position)
The rst position is the Upright Position. This position is
ideal for patient transport and can be used to initiate patient
treatment / therapy.
Second Position (First Recline Position)
The second position is the First Recline Position and is also
known as the “TV” position. This position is ideal for patient
treatment, rest and reading.
To Achieve Second Position / First Recline Position:
• Reclining by patient: Place hands on armrests and push
body against recliner back to recline yourself to desired
position. To bring yourself up, place hands on armrests
and pull yourself up while leaning your body forward,
away from the recliner back, while at the same time
pushing down evenly on the footrest with your legs.
• Reclining by caregiver: Standing on either side of the
recliner, grasp the armrest with one hand and the push
handle with the other hand. Push back on push handle to
recline. To return, grasp push handle and pull forward to
raise the recliner’s back.
sNOTICE: DO NOT use the footrest by itself to
return the recliner to an upright position from any
recline position. Doing so may damage the recliner
mechanism. Follow the instructions above to operate
the recliner.
Third Position (Second Recline Position)
The third position is the Second Recline Position and is also known as the “Full Recline”
position. This position is ideal for patient treatment, rest and reading.
To Achieve Third Position / Second Recline Position:
• Reclining by patient: From the First Recline Position, continue to push against the
back by placing your hands on armrests and continue to recline yourself to the Second
Recline Position. To bring yourself up, place hands on armrest and pull yourself up while
leaning your body forward away from the recliner back while at the same time pushing
down evenly on the footrest with your legs.
• Reclining by caregiver: Standing on either side of the recliner, grasp the armrest with
one hand and push handle with the other hand. Push back on push handle to recline. To
return, grasp push handle and pull forward to raise the recliner back.
