General Instructions 
 

The instructions contained herein provide guidance on the safe and correct operation of a 
BRODA chair.  Safety measures as described in Section 1 must be observed when operating the 
chair’s functions or moving the chair.  Only authorized caregivers should operate or move a 
chair. 
 
Every person that is involved with the operation and maintenance of the BRODA chair, 
including the resident’s family members, must read this instruction manual prior to moving or 
operating the functions of this chair.  A copy of this instruction manual must always be available 
to these people.  No person, including the resident’s family members, who is unfamiliar with or 
is unwilling or unable to adhere to the safety and operating instructions contained herein, should 
be permitted to operate or move the chair. 
 
A BRODA chair is designed for use within a Nursing Home, Hospital, or other Long Term Care 
facility where the potential users benefit from the assistance and care of professional caregivers. 
 
The safety and operating instructions that are included in this manual are very important to the 
safe and effective operation of the BRODA chair.  The resident specific instructions in Section 6 
(as determined by the resident’s professional caregiver responsible for their seating, from a part 
of the safety requirements detailed in Section 1) must be followed at all times. 
 
BRODA accepts no liability whatsoever for damage or disruption caused by operating errors, 
failure to provide proper maintenance, or the disregard of the instructions contained in this 
manual including the resident specific instructions. 
 
BRODA reserves the right to make changes to the specifications of the dimensions, functions, 
and components of its products.  Any textual or diagrammatic representations provided are not 
necessarily exactly the same as the delivered products and are not required to obtain spare parts. 
 
Each BRODA chair is provided with a unique, identifying serial number.  This serial number 
should be maintained on the chair and with your equipment records for future reference to obtain 
spare parts or additional copies of the operating instructions.
