With double footplate (figure 15) or one piece flip-up
footplates (figures 16, 18, 19), raise the footrest
plate/s before folding the wheelchair. If this
procedure is neglected, the wheelchair's folding
system may be seriuously damaged. In such case,
Rehateam s.r.l. can not be responsible and the
repair will not be under warranty.
2.10 Calf strap
In some cases, depending on the diameter of the front wheel and
the width of the wheelchair, the front wheel, as it rotates for turns
etc may come into contact with the occupant's heel.
In order to avoid any such contact (which could result in the chair
overbalancing), the chair is supplied with a calf restraining belt
which should be adjusted so that the occupant's feet do not
come into contact with the front wheels of the chair at
any time (see fig. 20).
2.11 Tubular armrests
The model YOGA can be provided with tubular armrests (fig.21) .
Fig. 20
The armrests are considered as an accessory and they
have to be ordered separately. They are particularly
useful for people with reduced mobility of their hands or
arms and for those with limited upper body movement
who require better stability once seated in the wheelchair.
The armrests must not be used to carry the
wheelchair or as a support.
The tubular armrests are only locked when they are in
their standard position for use (facing forwards and
parallel with the sides of the wheelchair) (see fig. 21).
In all other positions they can turn and for this reason
always ensure that they are correctly positioned
before use (see chapter 7.1 "Height adjustable,
removable, swing away armrests").
