I. Extension Tubes
1. Adjustment
a) Remove mounting fasteners from each side of the hanger tube.
b) Slide footrest extension tube to the desired height.
c) Line up holes and reassemble fasteners in desired hole through hanger
and extension tube.
d) Follow same procedure on opposite side. (Fig. 9 ‐ A & 9 ‐ B)
At the lowest point, footrests should be AT LEAST 2 1/2 INCHES off the
ground. If set too low, they may “catch” on obstacles you would expect to find
in normal use. This may cause the chair to stop suddenly and tip forward.
(Fig. 9 ‐ C)
To Avoid A Trip Or Fall When You Transfer:
a) Make sure your feet do not get caught in the space between the
footrests.
b) Avoid putting weight on the footrests as the chair may tip forward.
