FRONT RIGGING
The Metro IC3 front rigging can be released to swing out and detach.
FOOTREST—DETACHABLE, SWINGAWAY
Warning: The footplates' lowest point should be no
closer to the ground than 2-1/2 inches, to permit
proper clearance.
Warning: Do not stand on the footplates; this could
cause the wheelchair to tip.
Remove footrest
1. To release lock, pull
swingaway release lever
forward, toward front of
wheelchair. Footrest will
swing outward.
2. To remove, lift footrest
straight up off wheelchair
hinge pins.
Attach footrest
1. Set footrest on wheelchair
(so that footrest hinge
plates engage wheelchair
hinge pins).
2. Swing footrest inward.
3. Ensure that footrest and
swingaway release lever is
locked in a rearward
position, toward back of
wheelchair.
