17.6.3 Backrest and leg rest adjustment (option)
The LEVO combi with the option 90° backrest directly
linked with 80° leg rest adjustment allows you to reach
a lying position.
CAUTION: Improper balance and/or weight
distribution can result in tipping over and causing
serious injury or death when attempting to reach
the lying- or Trendelenburg position.
Trendelenburg position means that the feet will be
above the head in an angle of approx. 11°. You
absolutely must follow the safety precautions.
Never drive in this Position!! Supervision and
observation through an attendant person, wearing
the safety belt, necessary fitting adjustments like
leg rest, seat depth, backrest, headrest and gas
spring force of the rear wheel are absolutely to
observe!!
To adjust the backrest and leg rest press the MODE
button (see page 40). Move the joystick to the left or
right side until picture 23a appears. Then the back- and
leg rest adjustment is activated.
To get in a reclining or lying position, pull the joystick
backwards.
To get back into the sitting position or in a more upright
sitting position, just push the joystick forwards. To stop
in any position between sitting and lying, let go of the
joystick.
To be transferred in a total horizontal lying position (see
picture 24; including optional armrest reclining) pull the
joystick backward. If the horizontal position is reached
let go of the joystick. If the seat height is in basic ground
position the mechanism switches off automatically.
CAUTION: If the seat height is not in basic ground
position, you would reach the Trendelenburg position.
Consider the weight and or the balance point shift under
5. Warning!
To sit upright again just push the joystick forwards. (Operate all these functions with
the wheelchair stationary.)
For an easy transfer in the lying position (for example from the bed to the wheelchair
or versus) use the lift function (optional function) to put the chair on an equal height as
the other object.
