SETTING THE SEAT DEPTH
SAFETY
A correct chair seat depth provides greater ease of use. e location of the centre of gravity aects seat tilt.
e backrest can be set in a xed angle or free oating. Ensure that the correct height is set, so that you have optimum
support and full freedom of movement. A backrest and seat cushion of the correct size and with the proper settings are
essential for chair functionality and comfort.
Always mount the brake lever, as per the assembly instructions that accompany the chair, before the chair is used. Always
apply the chair brakes before moving in and out of the chair. e lever can be moved from the right to the left side. If the
chair is tted with an electronic brake, then the switch for this is located under the armrest.

ADJUSTING THE BACK
e backrest can be set in a xed angle or free oating. Adjust the height to ensure you have optimum support and a full
range of motion, so you are able to do any desired activity. Choosing the correct backrest design and size, and adjusting it
properly, are essential for chair functionality and comfort. e angle of the backrest post also aects the seat depth.
If the backrest is equipped with inatable lumbar support, the air hose must be protected against damage. e bulb pump
is operated by compressing the rubber bulb. Release the air by pressing the release valve button on the bulb pump hose.

e seat tilt function should only be used when the chair is on a horizontal surface. e tilt range varies depending on the
tilt mechanism installed and the chair settings.
SEAT LIFT
e seat lift and seat height depend on the lifting device that is mounted. A manual gas spring lifting device lifts approx. 15
or 20 cm, and an electric lifting device lifts 28 cm. e release lever for the manual seat lift is located either under the seat
or under the armrest. e release lever is movable.

ARM SUPPORT PLACEMENT
On some models, synchronising the armrest movement with seat tilt is optional. is option is highly recommended when
using a table. Some models are equipped with two armrest mounts. Unscrew the width adjustment screw on the armrest
mount, then pull out the armrest mount and place it in the second bracket underneath the seat. Ensure that the width
adjustment screw is reattached prior to use.

Placement of the arm support aects the point of support when moving in and out of the chair. e arm supports can eas-
ily be turned 180 degrees by pulling it up from the bracket and turning it. Armrest pads are also turned so that they point
the correct way again. Ensure the armrest is securely attached and set at the correct height before it is used as a support
point when getting into and out of the chair.
FOOT RING AND FOOTREST
A fold-up foot ring or footrest provides excellent support in an elevated sitting position. If the chair is equipped with
support, it can be used to stand on when transferring out of the chair or during an activity. e footrest can be folded up
under the front edge of the seat cushion for ease of movement and can easily be reached and folded out again by the user.
