L
Make sure that the headrest is inserted at least to the marked position to be fixed securely and
reliably.
The depth of the headrest can be adjusted by slightly loosening the adjusting screws to allow
movement of the sprocket gears. Then you can adjust the headrest to your needs and secure it by
retightening the adjusting screws. If the adjusted position is not satisfactory, you can repeat this
process.
L
Ensure that the back of your head is supported when relaxed in an upright sitting position.
L
Before using the headrest all fixing screws must be tightened properly, since injuries might
result when it slips downwards unintentionally.
You can secure your head against tipping sideways by lightly pressing the side panels of the headrest
inwards and to the front.
L
Do not exert too much pressure on the side panels otherwise bruising may result.
L
Do not clap the side panels together violently, otherwise they might break off, causing possible
injury as well as loss of function.
! PERSONAL SAFETY SYSTEM (B58)
For your safety we offer you a standardised safety belt which is equipped with a snap-on fastener, like
those mounted in cars and vans. This can be fixed by means of bolts inserted in the bolt holes on both
sides of the seat frame next to the backframe attachments. To ensure proper fixing, self-locking
("nylock") nuts should be used.
If the belt has been dismantled, only new genuine nuts provided by the manufacturer should be used
for re-attachment.
L
To ensure the validity of the warranty, entrust this work to your specialist dealer.
L
Before using the seatbelt, make sure that all screws are properly tightened.
Please consult your specialist dealer if you require other safety belt systems. He/she shall gladly
assist you further.
! ANTI-TIPPING DEVICE (B78)
For your safety your electric wheelchair is equipped with an anti-tipping device. Do not remove this or
your wheelchair will no longer be secured against accidentally tipping over.
L
Before driving off, make sure that the anti-tipping device is inserted on both sides and securely
fastened.
L
Always, before driving off, ascertain that the tipping protector is mounted in such a way that its
rollers bear on the ground to prevent toppling further over backwards in the event of
unintentional tipping.
! BODY SUPPORTS (L04)
Structural alterations of the headrest would void any warranty.

If your upper body requires stronger bracing than that
provided by the standard backrest, we offer a lateral
support system which can be mounted on the
backrest. The guiding rail is mounted vertically about
6 cm behind the backrest to one side. The screw
threads set in the back are to be used for this purpose
The supporting rods are inserted from the rear and
secured by the two Phillips screws. When adjusting
the height and depth of the "pelotten", slightly loosen
the Philips screws (1) and place the "pelotten" in the
desired position. Then retighten the Philips screws
(1).
