Folding and unfolding the wheelchair
To fold, simply life up under the centre edge of the seat upholstery. To unfold, tilt the chair
slightly to one side to raise the wheels on the opposite side off of the floor. Then press
down on one or both of the side seat rails. Before folding, ensure that the footrests are
either locked into position and the plastic footrests flipped up or remove them completely.
Applying the wheel locks
Push forward on the lock tips until the locks snap into the locked position. Do not attempt
to enter or exit the wheelchair without having the locks securely engaged.
Folding the footplates up into a vertical position
If the footplates are equipped with heel loops, these must first be pulled forward over the
rear of the foot plates. The footplates themselves can then be folded up into a vertical
position. Releasing and swinging away the front rigging:- whether the wheelchair is
equipped with standard footrests or elevating leg rests, this procedure permits the user to
make much closer approaches for easier, safer transfers to beds, toilets, cars etc. Simply
activate the release mechanism and swing the front rigging round to the side of the
wheelchair. While in this swing away position, the front rigging can also be removed from
the chair entirely by simply lifting it off. This removal will make lifting the chair or loading
into a car much easier for the attendant.
