(THERAPISTS/CARERS/PARENTS)
Parents and carers should be shown how
to make frequent adjustments and made
aware of the safety checks in section 6

person who has been trained in the use
of the product. Leckey recommend that
a written record is maintained of all

10.1 TRANSFERRING THE
USER INTO AND OUT OF
THE STANDER
Before transferring the child into the
stander carry out the daily product
inspection as outlined in section 12 of
this user manual.
Before transferring the child into the
product lock all the castors, ensuring that
they are facing outwards to maximise
product stability. Make sure the straps on
the chest, hip support harnesses and
sandals are released and out of the way
to facilitate transfer.
To facilitate transfer into supine
standing, angle the support frame to its
most horizontal position. This will enable
easier positioning of pads and straps
while the child is lying on their back.
Always secure the hip and
chest support harnesses first.
10.2 CHEST AND HIP
SUPPORT HARNESS
To open the chest or hip support harness
unclip one buckle and move the harness
to one side leaving the other buckle
attached. Reverse the process when
placing the user back in the product.
Always secure the chest and
hip support harnesses first
before making other
adjustments.
Always make sure the plastic
buckles are fully engaged.
