Using the Features
5.1 Chair Lock Bar
The red lock bar below the front edge of the seat disengages
the lock for folding and unfolding the chair. Before seating a
patient, verify that the chair is completely unfolded and the
lock is engaged.
FOLDING THE CHAIR
1.
Buckle the restraints and adjust them to prevent
interference when folding the chair.
2.
Roll the chair backward a foot or two to reverse the
swivel wheels (Figure 8).
3.
Stand at the side of the chair and grasp the chair
backrest with one hand and the lock bar with the other
hand (Figure 9).
4.
Pull the lock bar forward,
toward the backrest.
As you fold the seat, tilt the chair forward a little
(Figure 10) to keep the front wheels turned outward
so they will not hold the frame away from the seat and
prevent the lock from engaging.
5.
Press the seat against the backrest until the lock
engages (Figure 11).
6.
Verify the lock is engaged by pulling the seat away
from the backrest without pulling the lock bar. The
seat will not move if the lock is engaged.
UNFOLDING THE CHAIR
1.
Stand beside the chair and grasp the backrest with one
hand and the lock bar with the other hand.
2.
Pull the lock bar forward, then pull the seat away from
the backrest until it is fully unfolded and the lock
engages.
3.
Verify that the lock has engaged by holding the
backrest in place while pulling up on the chair frame
at the front of the seat without pulling the lock bar. The
chair will not fold if the lock is engaged.
