Assembly and general recommendation for use
Note! Follow the information contained in this manual while assembly and adjustment. Users with
reduced mobility may need help from a third person who has appropriate skills.
Note! Do not sit in the wheelchair or use it in any other way before completion of assembly.
UNFOLDING AND ASSEMBLY
Step 1. Unfolding the wheelchair
Place the wheelchair on the ground. Unfold the wheelchair using the hand grips at the back of the
backrest. Fix the seat into the mounting openings and slide the wedge.
Step 2. Assembly of toilet bucket
Slide the toilet bucket without the lid into the rails which are located under the seat. (Check the
correctness of the assembled toilet bucket).
Step 3. Assembly of footrests
Assemble the right and the left footrest. Place the mounting element into the opening in the front
part of the frame and turn it inwards until the footrest lever is locked.
Step 4. Adjustment of footplates
Adjust the right and the left footplate by tightening the screw placed at the bottom of footrest with
included key. Then, adjust the inclination angle of the footplate to the ground using the lever. Proper
space should be left between the footplates and the ground as footplates set too low may cause
difficulties in overcoming such obstructions as curb. Adjust the footplate so that the angle between
trunk and thighs is 90
o
(as a result the user does not need to contract legs).
Step 5. Assembly of backrest extension
Assemble the backrest extension on the wheelchair backrest by putting it into the mounting
openings until the locking clip clicks, and then, fix the pillow stabilizing head with the use of Velcro.
FOLDING
The wheelchair can be re-folded in order to be transported and stored more easily.
Step 1.
To fold the wheelchair, remove the toilet bucket first and disassemble the seat.
Step 2.
Disassemble the headrest.
Step 3.
Turn around the calf pad, swing away the footplates and set them in vertical position
(perpendicularly to the ground).
