Footrests

REMOVAL - Standard
Release winged screw A and slide the complete assembly
from the seat frame. Ensure the winged screw is fully tight-
ened when the footrest assembly is replaced.
Removal (swing away)
Release the locking lever, swing footrest to the side, or lift up
and off. Do this before sitting in the chair.
Adjustment
To extend the footrest laterally, release the winged screw A, pull the footrest forward, re-tighten
when the desired position is achieved. It is not necessary to release the grub screw B. This
should remain permanently in position.
To adjust the footrest length, loosen the hex nut C on the extension tube, use a twisting motion
when sliding the telescopic tube in and out. Be sure to re-tighten the nuts securely when the
desired height is achieved.
CAUTION
• The lowest part of the footplate must be at least 6cm from the ground for clearance. Never
stand on the footplates. If the weight of the body is placed on the footplates, the chair will tip
forward.
