Front frame with removable footrest
One of the features of this model is the particular footrest that you can rotate out of the way or remove completely.
These functions reduce the bulk and the weight of the wheelchair and help the occupant to get closer to objects such beds and tables.
It is also convenient for amputees who have no use for the footrest.
(1) Check that the footrest frame is securely locked to its support.
With one hand, take hold of the footrest frame and try to move it clock and anticlockwise. If it is securely locked, the footrest frame will not rotate, but you should notice just a little play.
(2) To swing the footrest away, push the lever A, then, turn the footrest away outwards.
(3) To lock it back, turn it inside to the operating position until a click indicates it is locked.
(4) Push the lever A and simply pull the footrest frame up to remove it.
(5) To insert the footrest, keep it turned outward, align the two holes of the winglets B of the footrest frame with the front frame pins C. Insert the footrest frame and slit it in while keeping it partly swung away.
Finally, turn it inside to the using position until a click indicates it is locked (1). Make sure it is securely locked following the previously outlined instructions.
If the wheelchair is equipped with a single footrest, it must always be raised before swinging the footrest frame away.
