lowered for use.
To lower the footrest, swing it down until it stops.
To raise the footrest, swing it up until it stops.
GUIDELINES FOR USING THE FOOTREST
Use the footrest properly to ensure that is does not
interfere with patient's or operators' feet.
Before transferring the patient onto the chair, make
●
sure the footrest is raised in the storage position.
When preparing to transfer the patient off the chair,
●
unfasten the ankle restraint and raise the footrest
into the storage position before unfastening the
patient's torso and lap restraints. This will prevent
the patient from attempting to stand before the
footrest has been stored out of the way of his/her
feet.
Keep the footrest raised when it is not in use.

4.5 Wheel Locks

The rear wheels of the chair are fitted with wheel locks to
help keep the chair from rolling during patient transfer.
Stay with the chair and maintain control of it at all times.
Do not use the wheel locks as a substitute for operator
control.

the lock pedal.

end of the lock pedal.
