Usage
Using the brakes
Hold the brake handles with both
hands while the Setonix wheelchair
is stopped. Push the brake handles
forward to their self-locking position
to prevent rear wheels from moving
(fig.1).
Using the Knee Belt
Both the knee belt and chest belt
should be secured before standing
in your Setonix chair. To secure the
knee belt, simply place the belt
below your knees with the abductor
between each knee. Attach the
round clip on each end of the knee
belt to the round anchor on each
side of the frame. Use the velcro
strap to tighten the knee belt tight
to your legs. Improper use of the
knee belt can lead to injury or
death.

Usage (cont’d)
Using the Chest Belt
Both the knee belt and chest belt
should be secured before standing
in your Setonix chair. To secure the
chest belt, wrap the belt around
your chest and both of the back
canes. Connect the plastic clips
and pull the adjustment straps so
the the belt is tight against your
body. Improper use of the knee belt
can lead to injury or death.
Standing
To stand in your Setonix chair, first
ensure you are on a level surface. If
you haven’t already, be sure that
the knee and chest straps are
correctly secured. Start by
engaging the breaks to avoid rolling
in the standing position. Once
ready, press the “up” arrow on the
hand control (fig. 2). The chair will
gently raise into the standing
position.
Returning to Seated Position
To return to the seated position,
press the “down” arrow on the hand
control until the chair has
completely returned to the seated
position (fig. 2). You may now
disengage the brakes and return to
propelling.
Using the flip-back armrests
The Setonix armrests flip back for
transfers, but are available for
added stability and security when
standing. To flip back the armrests,
simply push them up until they swing
back completely (fig. 3). Push them
forward again to bring them back
down to the original position.

Safety
Warning
The Setonix standing chair may not
be for everyone. In certain cases,
standing could cause future
complications. Some of these cases
include: users with fractures in lower
limbs, users with a history of
dislocations in the lower limbs, users
with advanced osteoporosis, users
with joint stiness, etc. Please
consult your physician before using
the Setonix standing wheelchair
DO NOT raise to the maximum
height too quickly. Raise at intervals
as your tolerance increases. If you
feel dizzy or feel tired, lower the
chair to its lowest position and take
time to recover. In your first few
weeks, you may not be able to
stand for long, but over time, you
will be able to stand longer.
DO NOT insert hands or objects into
the moving lift mechanism.
Seated Stability
The Setonix is designed to be safe
and stable while seated as long as
center of gravity is maintained while
going about normal activities. Care
must be taken while performing
activities that shift your center of
gravity in the chair. Never reach so
far that you need to shift in the seat
or bend over out of the chair. When
you are reaching for objects that
require you to lean forward, be
certain front casters are pointed in a
forward position that extends the
wheel base and stabilizes the chair.
Standing Stability
The Setonix is designed to be safe
and stable while standing as long as
center of gravity is maintained while
standing. Always make sure to
always engage both brakes before
standing and never attempt to
propel while standing. Never stand
on an incline of any kind.

Ramps
Be sure of your own capabilities,
limitations and strength before
attempting to go up a ramp.
Correct techniques on ramp
navigation should be shown to you
by a qualified professional. If you
must stop on an incline, avoid
sudden, abrupt movement when
you resume movement. Backward
angling of the chair or sudden
abrupt movement could cause
instability. Attempting to use the
wheel lock brakes could result in
accidental locking, tipping to one
side, sudden stopping. Avoid
changing direction when going
down an incline, as this could result
in instability or tipping over. Never
use your Setonix wheelchair on an
incline steeper than 4.8°.
Care of the Wheelchair
Always ensure that your Setonix
wheelchair is dry after use to
prevent corrosion. It should be
regularly washed using warm water
and a mild detergent. Dry after
washing.
