FITTING YOUR FURNITURE RAISERS
NB. Two people may be required to fit the Furniture Raisers safely.
As with all devices designed to assist the elderly or disabled, care should be taken
to avoid sudden or undue movement, when using this equipment.
1.
Place chair raisers on the floor behind chair with spreader bar running
side-to-side.
2.
Loosen wingnuts and adjust to size so that chair will drop into raiser
sockets.
3.
Tip chair forwards and place chair legs into rear sockets. Note: furniture leg
or castor must rest on the inner base of the raiser unit only.
4.
Move to the front and tip chair backwards, swing front sockets round
under legs and lower the chair.
5.
Push raiser sockets tight up against chair legs. Under the chair adjust the
rails to the centre to allow space for the users’ feet, so that the rails run side
to side under the chair. Now tighten the wingnuts.
6.
Place block inserts into raisers as required. A maximum of two per raiser, to
raise by an extra 24 mm to 48 mm. It is important to ensure that the extra
height being added is the same for all four raisers.
7.
Ensure chair is stable on the raisers before use.
8.
This product is designed for use in a static mode only.
