7.3 FOOTREST

7.3.1 ADJUSTING THE FOOTREST HEIGHT

• The

• Make sure to remove any load from the footplate.

• Loosen the bottom right and left stem-to-frame bolts.

• Adjust the height of the footplate in the limits of + or - 1’’

range.

7.3.2 FOOTPLATE OR OPEN LOOP

• When transferring, avoid putting weight on the footrest or open

loop and be careful not to stand behind the footrest.

• Never use the footplate or open loop to lift the wheelchair when

occupied.

• Only use non-detachable parts to lift the wheelchair.

7.4 ARMRESTS

WARNING

Ensure that armrests are securely locked into arm sockets

and armrest release buttons are locked into place prior to

using the wheelchair.

• Never lift the wheelchair by holding the armrests.

• Only use non-detachable parts to lift the wheelchair.

7.4.1 FLIP BACK ARMREST

armrest on the APEX.

7.4.2 REMOVABLE "T" ARMRESTS

To remove the armrests:
• Pull lever (1) backwards to release the system.

• Pull the armrest all the way up.
To reinstall the armrests:
• Bring the armrests downward until slide (3) enters in the arm-

rest receiver (4) and snaps into place.

To remove the armrests from the wheelchair:
• Lift them straight up to release the armrest from receiver (1).

• To reinstall the armrests, insert them back in the armrest

receiver (1) until they snap into place.

7.5 SEAT BELTS

WARNING

Use positioning belts ONLY to help support the user's pos-

ture. Improper use of these belts may cause severe injuries

to the rider.

WARNING

Ensure that the user does not slide down in the wheelchair

seat. If this occurs, the user may suffer chest compression or

suffocation.

WARNING

Never use belts as a motor vehicle restraint.

• The seat belt should be used at all times in accordance

with instructions.

• There should be approximately one hand width of space

between the seat belt and thigh; do not exceed this amount of

space.

• Make sure the seat belt is properly fastened to avoid serious

injuries.

• In case of emergency, ensure that the seat belt can be easily

unfastened.

7.5.1 AUTO BUCKLE AND AIRCRAFT BUCKLE SEAT BELT

• To fasten your seat belt, insert the clip into the buckle until it

snaps.

• Make sure the belt is securely fastened.

• To unfasten your seat belt, lift the flap on the aircraft buckle

seat belt or push the button on the auto buckle seat belt.

• To adjust your seat belt, pull each strap towards the opposite

side until you get the desired tension and keep the buckle cen-

tered.

7.5.2 VELCRO BELT

• To fasten your seat belt, insert the long side of the seat belt into

the buckle on the other side.

• Apply pressure on the belt for a firm grip of the Velcro.

7.6 ANTI-TIPPERS

RECOMMENDATION
