Removing the Step
30
You can remove the step anytime it might interfere such as when sitting a wheelchair customer in
the chair or using a foot spa machine.
Pull up the step at an angle (approx. 45°) with both hands and pull it up towards you to remove it.
Install by performing the removal procedures in the reverse order.
Hook the step fixture on the guide while aligning with the positioning stoppers.
⇒
The adjuster, which prevents the chair from overturning, is located on the underside of the step.
Adjust the adjuster by loosening the adjuster nut by using a wrench (No. 17), adjust the height of the
adjuster, and then tighten the adjuster nut by using a wrench (No. 17), as shown in the figure above.

WARNING
CAUTION
•Be careful of operating the chair when using a foot bath and make sure that the chair does not
interfere with the foot bath.
•Immediately wipe off any water, chemical or other liquid of the foot bath if it gets on the chair.
•After installing the step, check that the step fixture is securely held by the
guide and the step is not loose. Be careful that there is no looseness as this
could result in the chair tipping over when the customer is getting in or out of
the chair.
•Be careful when lifting and carrying the step, and of where you place it because
the step is heavy. Dropping the step could result in serious injury or damage the
floor.
Be careful when the adjuster is extended that it does not scratch the floor or
pull the power cord when rotating the chair.
