Backrest angle
Figure 19. Manually adjusting backrest angle.
The angle of the backrest is adjusted via an adjustable locking pole
with a quick-acting lock in a number of fixed positions. From an
upright position, the backrest can be inclined a maximum of 45°
backwards.
1. Pull out the quick-acting lock’s spring action handle so that the
locking pole moves freely and the backrest can be angled.
2. Adjust the backrest angle to the required angle.
3. Lock the locking pole securely by releasing the handle so that it
engages in the intended hole in the locking pole.
4. Check that the backrest is locked in position.
WARNING!
Risk of crushing while adjusting backrest angle
Do not put weight on the backrest while adjusting the angle. There is a risk
of crush-point accidents.
