CHAPTER 3: FOOTRESTS
I WARNING
Check all clamps, screws, nuts and bolts that secure the footrest to the wheelchair frame to make sure they are
securely tightened before using the wheelchair. If you ignore this Warning, the footrests could move unexpectedly
while you are using the chair, causing you to fall, tip over or lose control of the wheelchair and seriously injure yourself
or others or damage the wheelchair.
I
WARNING
A titanium open loop footrest is available as an option. A footrest cover is recommended for wheelchair users
that have leg spasticity or whose feet have a possibility of falling through an open loop footrest.
If you ignore this
Warning, you could fall, tip over or lose control of the wheelchair and seriously injure yourself or others or damage the
wheelchair.
I WARNING
A calf strap is offered as an option with each wheelchair to prevent your feet from slipping backwards off of the
footrest. TiLite recommends that you purchase our calf strap with your wheelchair. Always make sure the calf
strap is secure when using the wheelchair. If you ignore this Warning, you could fall, tip over or lose control of the
wheelchair and seriously injure yourself or others or damage the wheelchair.
I WARNING
Whenever you adjust the angle or height of your footrest, or you replace your footrest, always allow at least 2” of
ground clearance to permit you to maneuver over objects. If you ignore this Warning, you could fall, tip over or lose
control of the wheelchair and seriously injure yourself or others or damage the wheelchair.
Safe Tread
If you ordered your wheelchair with either the Titanium Footrest with Flat ABS Cover, ABS Cover with 2” Sides or the
Titanium Open Loop Footrest, enclosed with your chair are two 4” squares of self-adhesive Safe Tread. Safe Tread
provides a more slip-resistant surface than the footrest of your chair. Use of the Safe Tread is optional, but TiLite
recommends you use it in order to reduce the likelihood of your feet slipping off the footrest during use of your chair.
If you choose to apply the Safe Tread to your footrest, follow the following instructions:
1. See Figure 3-1 for the suggested location of the Safe Tread.
2. Without removing the adhesive backing strip, position the Safe Tread on the footrest and, if necessary, use a pen
or pencil to draw any edges that need to be trimmed.
3. Carefully cut the Safe Tread to size using scissors, knife or razor blade.
4. Thoroughly clean and dry the footrest.
5. Peel the adhesive strip backing from the Safe Tread and press firmly to the surface of the footrest, starting from
the center and working toward the edges of the Safe Tread, making certain the edges are fully adhered.
