OS1 Mobile Operating Chair
Operating / Service Manual
4.16 Sitting down and standing up of the patients
If patients want to sit down or stand up from the chair, it must first be brought into the basic position. Therefore
press the yellow button (11) on the hand control (see Basic position) which will lock the chair by activating the brake
system. When the patient sits down or stands up, all casters must be braked (see Braking)
CAUTION
Risk of falling or accident due to insufficiently braked chair
If the chair is not being moved, the casters must be locked at all times, as the chiar may be used
by patients as a support when sitting down or standing up. Rolling the unbraked chair away can
lead to serious falls. After activating the central locking, check whether the chair is actually fixed,
i.e. the casters are sufficiently braked. The chair may be in an unbraked position before each
new use and must therefore be checked immediately for properly locked casters.
• Fold in the foot support (see Foot support)
CAUTION
Risk of falling or tripping when foot support is folded out
The foot support must be folded in when the patient sits down or stands up. This is the only way
to ensure that the patients can approach the chair as close as possible with their heels. This
gives handicapped patients in particular a feeling of safety when sitting down or standing up. The
mechanics of the foot support cannot withstand the loads when sitting down and standing up of
the patients.
• Pull out both arm supports completely when patients want to sit down or stand up. The arm supports
must engage in the highest position (completely pulled out) with a clearly audible noise (see Arm rests).
• Lower the arm support completely if patients want to sit down or stand up always.
• Provide support as needed
CAUTION
Risk of falling or accident due to moving arm supports
Check that the arm supports have snapped in securely when they are completely pulled out by
briefly supporting yourself on them. Patients could slip and possibly fall.
4.1.7 Patient transportation
When transporting patients, proceed in principle in the same way as when moving the unoccupied chair (see Driving).
In addition, the following requirements must be observed.
TIP
The casters are essentially used only to move the chair when it is unoccupied. The chair can be used for
patient transportation within buildings under certain conditions.
• The patient may be transported in both a sitting and lying position
• The forearms of the patient lie in normal position on the arm supports
• In the seated position, the foot support is folded out and the patient’s feet are on the foot support
(see Foot support)
CAUTION
Risk of trapping or injury due to uncontrolled foot movements during seated patient transport
The foot support must be folded out at all times during seated patient transportation. At the same
time, for safety reasons, always place your feet on the foot support.
• When transporting the patient, pull out both arm rests completely. The arm supports must engage in the
highest position (completely pulled out) with a clearly audible noise (see Armrests).
