5.12. Manual brake
Two versions of manual braking are available: a foot brake and a brake lever (optional).
The brake lever is available in two models, brake lever with knob and brake lever with loop.
The brake lever with knob is available in three lengths: 250 mm (optional), 350 mm (standard)
and 450 mm (optional). The brake lever with loop (optional) is available in length 530 mm.
This is used to reduce the range of motion needed for the arm when braking. The brake is also
available as an electrical function, see 5.3. Electrical functions.
Foot brake
If the device is equipped with a foot brake, this is located
on the base’s brake axle (see Figure 5.22).
Activation and deactivation:
1. Push down to the locking position to brake.
2. Press upwards on the underside of the pedal to
disengage the brake.
PLEASE NOTE! The brake must be in locked mode whenever
the patient is sitting down on or getting out of the chair.
Figure 5.22. Foot brake.
Brake lever
The brake lever can be located on the right (A) or left (B)
side of the base, see Figure 5.23.
Activation and deactivation:
1. Pull the brake lever to the locking position to brake.
2. Pull the brake lever in the opposite direction to
disengage.
Setting the brake lever bracket:
Brake lever brackets are located on the outside of the
base at the rear wheels on the right and left sides. To be
able to brake even when the width of the armrest is fully
adjusted outwards, the brake lever brackets can also be
adjusted outwards, see Figure 5.24.
1. Loosen the screw on the brake lever bracket with a
6 mm Allen key. Gently pull out the bracket.
2. Attach the screw to the next hole and tighten the
screw tightly with the Allen key.
