Angle adjustable legrests support the legs and reduce
pressure. The legrests can be used for bandaged legs, but
not for legs in plaster casts. The legrests must always be
fitted with calf pads, footplates and heel straps.
It is important to adjust the height and angle of the
legrests to obtain a good seating position.
1. Height adjustment
Loosen screw (A) with an Allen key. Adjust the legrest
into a suitable height and the screw is caught by one
of the recesses on the legrest tube. Then retighten
the screw.
2. Angle adjustment
Pull the lever (B) with one hand while support-
ing the legrest with your other hand. When a
suitable angle is obtained, let go of the lever and
the legrest will look into one of seven preset
positions (C).
Do not place anything heavy, or let
children sit on the legrest. It may cause
damage to the mechanism.
The distance between the lowest part of
the footrest and the ground must be at
