Ensure all bolts are secured before
using foot rests and that both foot rests
have been adjusted correctly
Ensure all cap head bolts are fully
tightened before using foot rests
2.6 Folding the foot supports
In order to enter or leave the wheelchair you can fold the
foot supports vertically. To do this, ensure that the brakes
are applied to prevent the wheelchair rolling (if a foot plate
is fitted, remove as per section 2.4). Turn each foot support
vertically until they are both facing upwards (see fig. 11).
2.7 Setting the foot support height
The foot rest is fitted with a telescopic adjustment of
approximately 11-13cm to allow the foot support to be
positioned to suit the user’s needs. Before adjusting
ensure the brakes are applied to prevent the wheelchair
rolling. Unfasten allen head screw and nut (using 4mm key
and 10mm spanner) adjust and refix in desired position
(see fig. 12).
2.8 Setting the foot support angle
The foot rests are designed so that the angle of the foot
supports can be easily adjusted for comfort. Before
adjusting ensure the brakes are applied to prevent the
wheelchair rolling. Using an allen key (5mm), slacken the
cap head bolt on the foot support (see fig. 13). Set foot
support to the desired angle and retighten cap head bolt,
repeat for other foot support.
