Due to the risk of choking it is extremely hazardous to use the
belts without using the knee xaon.
5.2.1 Chest strap Adjustments:
Seng the height of the chest strap, (Fig.5.8).
NOTE: A 5.0 mm Hexagon wrench, (Allen Key), is required.
Posioning:
• Seat the user into the chair in the correct seang posion.
• Loosen the Allen screw to be able to posion the chest strap at
the desired height.
• Tighten the Allen screws to a torque value of 9 Nm (+/- 10%).
DANGER!
• To prevent choking hazards the belt may not be adjusted too
high or too low relave to the users body.
• Make sure the rider does not slide in the wheelchair seat. If this
occurs, the rider may suer chest compression or suocate due
to pressure from the chest strap.
• Never use the chest strap as a paent restraint.
• Never use the chest strap on a user who is comatose or
agitated.
CAUTION!

Adaptation/Adjustment:
Seat the user into the wheelchair.
• Feed the buckle on the chest strap through the loop, (Fig.5.9).
• Pull the chest strap so that it fully supports the users upper body
rmly and comfortably, (Fig.5.10).
• Ensure that chest strap is not too ght.
• Close the buckle unl a loud click is heard, (Fig.5.11).
• The D-Ring facilitates easy adjustment for the user, (Fig.5.12).
• Ensure the chest strap fully supports the user and that there
is enough room to t a hands width between the user and the
support. (Fig 5.13).
Safety:
In addion to the chest strap latches, the chest strap incorporates
two further safety features that prevent the unintended opening of
the belt.
Each of the chest strap latches is secured with an overlaying safety
Velcro strap. In addion to these, on each side of the chest strap
there is a securing strap which is guided through the D-Ring adding
another degree of safety.
WARNING!
• Never use the stand-up funcon without the knee xaon, chest
strap and posioning belt aached and safely locked.
• Make sure the rider does not slide in the wheelchair seat. If this
occurs, the rider may suer chest compression or suocate due to
pressure from the supports.
• Never use posioning supports as a paent restraint.
• Never use posioning supports on a user who is comatose or
agitated.

6.0 Using the seang system
6.1 Geng in and out of the wheelchair (Transferring)
Sunrise Medical recommend that you consult your healthcare
professional for assistance in developing your personal front or
side transfer technique to best suit your needs and avoid any
personal injury.
DANGER!
To prevent a fall:
• Ensure controller is switched o during transfers to avoid
unintenonal movement. If you fail to do so you may touch the
joysck and cause your system to move when you do not expect it.
• Ensure that the free wheel lever has been set to ‘drive’, & General
manual.
• Rotate the front casters so that they point forward.
• Work with your health care professional to learn all safe methods for
transfers.
• Make sure motor brakes are engaged. This keeps the system from
moving when you transfer.
• It is dangerous to transfer on your own. It requires good balance and
agility. Be aware that there is a point during every transfer when the
seang system seat is not below you.
• Learn how to posion your body and how to support yourself during
a transfer.
• Have someone help you unl you are sure you can do a safe transfer
on your own.
• Do not stand on the footrest. Pung your full weight on the footrest
may lead to wheelchair damage and to hazardous situaons,
including the wheelchair pping up.
• Make sure your feet do not “hang up” or get caught in the space
between the footrests.
Preparing for a forward transfer (Centre Mount Leg Rest):
DANGER!
Move your wheelchair as close as possible to the seat you intend to
transfer into.
On the centre mount leg rest, ip both foot plates up out of the way,
(Fig.6.1 & Fig.6.2 - A).

Preparing for side transfer:
DANGER!
• Move your wheelchair as close as you can to the seat you are
transferring to. If possible, use a transfer board.
• Transfer as far back onto the seat surface as you can. This will
reduce the risk that you will miss the seat or fall.
Flip up armrest
• On the side you wish to transfer from; ip the armrest all the way
up unl it goes into its mechanical stop. This frees your space for
side transfer. (Fig. 6.4).
Remove side cushion
• To remove the side cushion, pull the plasc lever aached to the
aluminum seat side rails backwards, (Fig.6 .5 - A).
• Swing the back part of the cushion outwards to an angle of
approximately 10°.
• Swing the back part of the cushion outwards to an angle of
approximately 10° (Fig 6.6).
• Li the cushion out from the front pin.
