5.5 Retaining clamps for legs
5.5.1 Opening and closing retaining clamp
CAUTION!
Risk of falling out of wheelchair
If the retaining clamp lock is not correctly and
completely closed, and the locking lever is then
pressed down using force, the locking mechanism
can break. The retaining clamp does not function
correctly then.
– The locking lever may never be pressed down
using force.
– The fork at the end of the retaining clamp has
a small cone on the bottom which fits into the
corresponding recess in the locking mechanism.
The fork needs to be guided into the locking
mechanism as far as the stop so that the cone
fits into the recess. The locking lever may only
be pressed down at this point.
