Checking The Brakes - OFF CARR ALHENA Instruction Manual

The automatic footrest, at the opening of the wheelchair, is automatically placed and the foot-plate, in absence of weight. Is
slightly tilted on one side. This condition is absolutely normal to allow the automatic closing. With a light weight on the plate,
this immediately takes a plain position.
In case of frame with removable footrests, the footrests are packed separately.
To insert the footrest:
open the wheelchair;
insert the footpads in their proper rotation housing starting from a position at 90° to the frame (as shown) and rotate it
inwards until the hooking mechanism snaps
To extract the footrest:
Press the hooking lever and rotate the footrest outwards
Remove the footrest from the hinge pin by pulling it upwards
Note: If necessary, you can turn the footrest to the inside of the wheelchair
