2.1 Material information
The base frame and the individual elements are made of steel which is
non-corroding and powder-coated. All body supports (except for the knee
pelotte pads) are padded and covered. The covers are made of 100% po-
lyester or polyamide textile substrate, and are flame resistant (according to
DIN EN 1021-1+2).
2.2 Handling and transport
The upright trainer is not designed to be carried, as it is fitted with castors.
Should you have to carry the equipment due to obstacles, ensure that all
moving parts are tightened. Then two people should position themselves
next to the upright trainer, grip it on the left and right of the frame and carry
it to the required location. To transport the upright trainer, reduce all adjust-
ments to their most compact size (fold up pelvic frame, set lowest height etc.)

2.3 Application areas, use according to the intended purpose
Indications
The tim. upright trainer is designed for interior use and serves to train stan-
ding in users who can hardly stand or who cannot stand, in particular due to:
• Paraplegia
• Advanced multiple sclerosis
• Cerebral paresis
• Muscular dystrophy
Contraindications
In general, the indications for standing should be approved by a doctor or
orthopedist. It should therefore be clarified prior to procurement whether
contraindications exist for the patient. In general, any type of pain repre-
sents a contraindication. No upright trainer care should be conducted wi-
thout establishing prior to use whether the patient has an abnormal foot
position which requires medical attention. Depending on the disease symp-
toms and therapy, please clarify how long the user may stand in the upright
trainer. The following symptoms may occur in some cases:
• Circulation problems
• Pain in the leg and back areas
• Spastic seizures
It must also be clarified whether the user can be brought into full standing
position. For many users, only standing in a bent position is possible at first.
Never correct posture using force or strong pressure!
