Footrests and Legrests

D82007778Q   09/15

Chapter 6

37

When your thighs rest on the seat cushion, your feet should comfortably
rest on the plate(s) of the footrest/legrests. You can make several adjust-
ments to maximize safety and comfort. In addition, a bracket mounted to
the underside front of the seat accommodates swing-away legrests.

Flip-Up Style Footrest 

(FWD, XHD and HD-6 models only)

1.

You can adjust the flip-up style footrest angle from 0 to 15 degrees. To 
adjust, locate the set screws in each corner of the frame bracket and 
move them in or out until you have found a comfortable foot position. 
Adjust screws using the supplied 1/4" hex wrench. To prevent binding, 
make sure the heads of the screws touch the footrest at the same 
time (See Figure 6A below).

Figure 6A - Footrest Adjustment Screws

2.

Set footrest tension by tightening or loosening the right hand pivot 
bolt with the nylon washer.

3.

Change the footplate height by using the upper or lower mounting 
holes on the sides of the anti-tip brackets.
