Back Pad
(not included in standard extent of delivery)
An assistant is necessary for using the back pad!
The hip pads may be adjusted to the correct height by loosening the clamps on the main bar. It may
be adjusted to the user´s midsection by loosening the clamps, pos. 3 (pic. 5.3), on the rear crossbar.
The width is altered by adjusting the latches on the rear crossbar.
The hip support rails have a dual function. They can be used as hand holds for the user to aid lifting
and to support the hip bar and pads.
To adjust the height of the hip support rails undo the clamping handles on the top chromed section of
the vertical tubes. There is no additional height adjustment control in the hip support rails so caution
must be taken to support the rails when adjusting their height. Hold the rails as close to the handles
as possible to ensure the rail moves smoothly. Raise or lower the rails to the desired height and tighten
the clamping handles. Ensure the rails are firmly positioned before using.
The lifting harness will hold the user in a standing position. However, additional hip supports can be
used to provide more positive pelvic control. The hip support bar is positioned on the hip support rails,
which allows adjustment of the depth of the hip pads in relation to front of the tray.
The hip support bar is semi-permanently attached to the hip support rails. The left hand rail is slightly
longer than the right hand rail. The hip support bar slides along the rails and is held in position with
clamp handles. The support bar can slide off the right hand rail and will be held on the left hand rail.
This allows the hip support bar to be swung out of the way for transferring.
Tighten the clamping levers again.
Foot and Heel Strap
When using the Delta the user must be adequately supported at the chest, hip, knee and foot. The
support of these areas helps the skeleton to support itself.
When standing vertically, the user's legs should be as straight as possible. The depth adjustment on
the knee support helps maintaining a straight leg. However, the heel has to be blocked so that the
support can work against any flexion (bending) in the knee. Therefore, knee support depth should be
