Before installing the EASYTRACK prepare the installation as follows:
1) Survey the room where you plan to install the EASYTRACK
System.
• Make sure the room meets all the specifications
outlined in “EASYTRACK System Requirements”
section.
2) Make sure the pick-up point will be inside the transfer
zone:
• Over a bed :
approximately 915 - 1020 mm (36 - 40”) from the head
of the bed.
• Over a tub:
approximately 400 - 460 mm (16 - 18”) from the end
of the tub.
• Allow 1000 mm (39”) of the open area for transfer
working space.
3) Determine the location for the three posts considering the
following, see Fig. 6:
• Distance from the wall, adjacent to the two standard
posts, to allow clearance for the pivot track overhang.
• Minimum distance of 1.9 m (75”) between the two
standard posts.
• Transfers should only take place between the
EASYTRACK System’s posts.
• Centre the pivot post as much as possible between
both standard posts.
