Operation; Wheel Blocking; Footrests - lopital Elexo Instructions For Use Manual

3. Operation

3.1. Wheel blocking

• The brake can be applied on the Elexo by pushing the blue
lip (1) on the wheel downwards (See figure 2).
• In order to take the Elexo off the brake, the same lip on the
wheel must be moved upwards by tapping the upper side
of the lip (2) (See figure 2).
Option: Swivel wheel left front (Article number 7556 0025).

3.2. Footrests

• Before the client takes a seat in the Elexo, the footrests
must be folded upwards. This will ensure there is sufficient
space for the person to easily take a seat in the chair
(See figure 3). If more room is required, the footrests can
be turned out (See figure 4). First, the footrests must be
slightly raised (1) and then they can be turned outwards (2).
• The carer or the client first raises one leg; the carer can
then folds the footrest down (See figure 5). The same
procedure is then carried out with the other leg.
Always replace this component on the chair when you
have finished using it. This will avoid the component
being lost.
Option: Comfort leg supports (Article number 6960 8026).
The comfort leg supports provide the legs with additional
support. The comfort leg supports can be adjusted in length
as well as according to the sitting angle. The angle of the
leg supports can be adjusted to 4 positions (See figure 6 to 9).
To change the seating angle, you have to release the locking
pin. When you have determined the correct position, lock the
sitting angle of the comfort support once again (See figure 10).
Make sure that the locking pin slips in well into one of
the 4 holes.
