03 PREPARING THE PRODUCT FOR USE
4.1 Locking brakes
The TSU-2/-4 is equipped with four 5-inch swivel
castors. Depending on the model selected, the
two rear swivel castors or all four swivel castors
are equipped with brakes. When the respective
locking brake is engaged, the swivel castor is
braked and also prevented from rotating. For
stability and to prevent the commode chair from
rolling sideways, the two rear locking brakes
must always be engaged.
1.
Actuate the locking brake by stepping on the
locking rocker (1, Fig. 6).
2.
To release the locking brake, step on the small
rocker lever (2, Fig. 6).
