Chair Features
Folding and Unfolding the Chair
The chair lock must be disengaged before you
begin folding or unfold the chair. Pull the lock
bar forward, then fold or unfold the chair.
When folding the chair, tilt the seat forward so
the swivel wheels rotate outward, away from
the seat.
UnFOlDinG ThE Chair
1. Stand beside the chair and grasp the lift bar with one
hand and the lock bar with the other hand.
2. Pull the lock bar forward (toward the front of the
chair), then pull the seat away from the lift bar until
the chair fully unfolds and the lock engages.
3. To verify the lock has engaged, hold the lift bar while
pulling up on the chair frame at the front of the seat.
The chair will not fold if the lock is engaged.
FOlDinG an OPEn Chair
1. Buckle the restraints and arrange the straps to prevent
interference with folding the chair.
2. Roll the chair backward to reverse the swivel wheels
(Figure 5).
3. Standing at the side of the chair, grasp the lift bar with
one hand and the lock bar with the other hand.
4. Pull the lock bar forward (Figure 6), toward the front
of the chair,
then
fold the seat toward the lift bar.
AS yOU FOLD The SeAT:
Tilt the chair forward
(Figure 7) to keep the swivel wheels rotated outward.
This prevents the wheels from holding the frame away
from the seat and allows the lock to engage.
5. Press the seat against the back-panel frame until the
lock engages (Figure 8).
6. Verify the lock has engaged by pulling the seat away
from the lift bar without pulling the lock bar. The seat
will not move if the lock is engaged.
Note:
If the swivel wheels prevent the chair from locking in
the folded position, hold the chair at a greater tilt to allow
the swivel wheels to rotate away from the chair frame.
5.1 Folding and Unfolding the Chair
The red lock bar below the front edge of the seat disengages
the lock for unfolding and folding the chair. Before seating a
patient, verify that the chair is completely unfolded and the
lock is engaged.
