DROP ARM FUNCTION, FR566DG AND FR566DGH ONLY
The Lumex Deluxe Clinical Care Recliner with Drop Arm (Series FR566DG and FR566DGH)
features self-storing drop arms that are simple for the caregiver to actuate. By lowering the
arm, a safer and easier lateral transfer for the resident and caregiver can be achieved.
WARNING: Always lock all recliner casters before attempting to transfer a patient.
DO NOT attempt to transfer a patient if you are unsure about the physical abilities
of the patient or yourself. If you are transferring a patient between two pieces of
equipment, make sure both pieces of equipment are locked, are at the same height in
order to reduce the amount of lifting required to transfer the patient, and are as close
to one another as possible. Failure to heed these warnings could result in personal
injury to the patient and / or caregiver.

1. Lift fold down side table away from
