Repose Harlem Porter chair User Manual page 13

Sliding Footplate
adjustment
The footplate simply slides in and out to
provide additional support. Always use the
footplate when moving a user around to avoid
them catching or dragging their feet on the
floor. When the footplate is under the base of
the chair it allows uninterrupted access with a
hoist from the front or obliquely.
D-rings
The Harlem comes with D-rings fitted as
standard enabling easy fitting of a lap strap and
pad. They can be found at the base of the seat
back by removing the seat cushion. The lap
strap and pad simply connect to the D-rings as
shown.
Lap Strap and Pad
ADJUSTING RELEASE
STRAPS CLIP
The lap strap can be shortened or lengthened
by using the adjuster and it also has a quick
release clip as illustrated left. Always make sure
the lap belt is comfortable for the user and that
it is not pinching.
ONLY USE the lap strap, fitted as per the instructions,
for moving people about in the chair.
IT IS NOT a pelvic positioner and it should NEVER be used for restraining a user.
