VIC429-INS-LAB-RevA21 15
3.5 INDEPENDENT LEG SECTION
WARNING: PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD:
WARNING: The VIC has a warning label
on the top of the base cover that states:
When chair is in nontransport mode:
Patient must remain fully upright; patient
must never be reclined; patient must
never be left unattended.
The VIC back and leg positions are dependent
on each other in the standard operating
mode: as the back position is adjusted, the
leg position follows. The leg position can be
independently positioned, however.
3.5.1 Independent Leg Operation
Hold and support the leg section by the
bottom of the frame tube and pull out on
the end of the red lever (Fig. 3.5-1). Rotate
the lever clockwise while positioning the leg
section (Fig. 3.5-2). Once desired position of
the leg section is reached, release the lever
and the leg section will be locked in place (Fig.
3.5-3). When the leg section is independent, it
can be repositioned at any time by turning the
lever clockwise (Fig. 3.5-3).
s
NOTICE: Always support the leg section
when turning the red lever.
3.5.2 Returning to Chair Mode
Hold and support the leg section by the
bottom of the frame tube and push in on the
end of the red lever (Fig. 3.5-1). Rotate the
lever counterclockwise while positioning the
leg section (Fig. 3.5-4). The lever will slide
inward to an inactive position; once the lever
is inactive, adjust the leg section until it is
aligned with the back section (Fig. 3.5-5).
Info: You will hear the leg section click into
place as it reengages with the back section.
