When positioning an armrest, note that there is a guiding and stopping block behind the back tube,
which ensures the lateral stability of the armrests. The supporting belts are located on the rear armrest
tube. When tilted, the armrest cannot really help.

fixing screw, adjust the length of the armrest, and retighten as required. The sockets can also be
rotated horizontally and fixed on to the opposing frame tube (interchange B02 with B03, and vice
versa).
Before use, make sure that the armrests are securely locked in place.
Never grasp the wheelchair by the armrests when picking it up for transportation, but only by
solid frame parts (see also the chapter "For your safety".)
