GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Leit Trolley and Leit Overbath Changer are to be used in domestic and commercial prop-
erties. The easy lightweight foldable design means it’s easy to store away when not in use and
travel around with you to make changing and showering easier when you’re not in your normal
environment.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
NEVER LEAVE ANYONE UNATTENDED USING THE CHANGERS FOR ANY REASON
• Make sure the environment in which you intend to use the Leit Trolley and Changer has
enough free space to manoeuvre in and that any steps, inclines, doorways or furniture will not
impede safe use of the Trolley or Changer.
• Never attempt to force an incompatible or unapproved deck to t your wheeled based trolley
• When folding and unfolding the changer/trolley, be careful not to trap or shear ngers, straps
etc, between frames.
• Your trolley should have been delivered with side rails (additional option on overbath chang
er) It is essential that the side rails are attached and used with the Trolley to ensure safe use.
• Always carry out a risk assessment before placing the user on the Leit Changer/Trolley
• Never sit anybody on the edge of the changer-this could result in tipping
• Never load the head or foot ends of the chnager more than the centre of the changer; doing
so can result in instability and the unit tipping
• Before any user transfer, make sure that the surrounding oor is dry and free of obstructions
• Ensure all 4 brakes are applied before moving a user onto the changer
• Always try to avoid large impacts to the Leit Trolley/Changer. Careless manouevering/push
ing of the trolley/changer into obstructions can damage the paintwork and will shorten the
lifespan of the unit.
• When the trolley/changer is set up, NEVER stand on any part of the deck or frame, in particu
lar the Support Tube
• Never use the trolley/changer on inclines where it may be possible for the carer to lose con
trol of the unit
• Do not attempt to move the unit with ANY of the castor brakes engaged. Doing so can dam
age the castor and/or brakes irreversibly
• Only use parts from Kingkraft. Incompatiable parts can create hazards
• Any faults, defects, damage or excessive wear must be dealt with immediately-if not the trol
ley/changer should be taken out of service
• Never attempt to perform any maintenance. exchange parts or dissamble the Leit with a per
son (or weight) on it

Instructions for use
Setting up your Leit Trolley
Unpack Unit:
Remove the Leit Trolley frame, x2 side rails and
your changer top any any other accessories from
the box. Check everything is present and free
from any damage. If you think that anything is
missing from your order, contact Kingkraft.
Unfold the trolley:
Unfold the trolley as shown in the picture. The
trolley should now be lying at.
Unfold the legs:
1 2 Release leg slide: Pull up catch ‘1’ to release the
slide. Pull the slide as far as it will go towards the
centre hinge, then you should hear it ‘click’ and
lock into place.
Repeat the above procedure for the opposite
legs.
1 2

The Unfolded trolley:
Your trolley should look like this illustration at
this point.
Apply brakes to all 4 castors, and then pull each
of the 4 changer release knobs to ensure
the catches are ready to receive the changers.
Install Changer:
There are two members which locate across
the two latches on each of the trolley legs.
This step will vary slightly depending on which
model you have. If you are unsure seek advice
from Kingkraft.
Keep the ends of the changers folded over so
you can clearly see what you are doing.
Guide on of the changer bars onto one side of
the trolley. You can rest the changer across the
catchers whilst you position the changer.
The changer bar is tted with feet-these should
locate either side of the each catch. This ensures
that the changer is central on the trolley frame.
Once you have positioned one side of the
changer, push it down in to the latches. This will
rotate and lock once the changer bar is in place
-continue to press until you hear both latch
Changer Feet plates ‘click’ into this locked position. Check the
changer is secure in both catches.
Move to the other end of the trolley, repeat the
process and check again that all 4 latches are
locked and the changer is rmly secured.
Not secure Secure

Installing side rails: (if applicable)
Lift the side rail clips (they should stay open) and then
insert the pins on the either end of the side rail into the
locator holes on your trolley frame. The spring clips
must be on the outside of the unit.
If you intend to place the user onto the Changer before
tting the side rail, it is advisable to lift the spring
clips on the safety rail to the open position before
moving the user. This will make locating the side rail
easier and faster.
Once both pins are fully inserted, lower the spring clips
back down. Ensure they locate fully underneath the
tube that the pin passes through. This will prevent
accidental removal.
Fit the side rail on the far side of the deck (furthest
away from you) at this point. Before tting a side rail
on the front of the unit, it is advised that this is done
after the user is placed on the deck, to reduce your
required lifting height. However, this is at the discretion
of the carer.
You should have the side rail ready, and be familiar
      withhowtotthesiderailbeforeplacinganyuser
onto the unit.
You should always ensure that the rails are
      undamaged,stilltontothechangerandthespring
clips still function correctly each time before placing
anybody onto the unit.
Your Leit Trolley is now fully ready for use!

If your Leit Trolley has an ‘Over Bath Changer Top’
You might have purchased a Leit Trolley that comes complete with additional legs that allows
the changer to be used on top of a bath as well as a trolley (it will look like the picture below). If
so, please follow these instructions for installation.
When using the Over Bath Changer with the trolley,
these additional legs do not to be unfolded.
The changer then needs to be tted to the trolley in the
same fashion as before.

trolley and safe to use, unfold both ends so they are
lying at.

bath and safe to use, unfold the changer so both
sides are laying at.

Cleaning
1. If the changer has been used in a shower environment, rinse o any soap or residue o
the changer and the trolley base. If it has only been used in a dry environment, it may
just need a wipe down with a damp cloth.
2. Remove the side rails and any other accessories.
3. Remove excess moisture from the vinyl with a towel and fold the head/foot ends over.
4. Turn each castor so that the brake pedal is facing away from the centre of the tolley and
apply all brakes.
5. Release the catches on one end of the trolley-the latch plates should spring open, and
the support tube of the changer should still rest on the trolley.
6. Move to the opposite end of the trolley and repeat step 5. You should now easily be able
to lift the changer o the trolley.
7. Store the changer in your bag (if applicable)
8. Lift the slide release on one of the slides, and move the slide as to fold the legs at.
9. Repeat this with the opposite slide and legs.
10. Fold the trolley in half by the centre hinge.
11. Remove any excess moisture from the unit with a towel or a cloth.
12. In order to keep the Trolley and Changer in good working order, it should be kept in a

in a shower environment, or otherwise simply wiped with a damp cloth and dried with a
towel each time.
