Push Handle; Anti-Tip Tubes - Sunrise Medical SOPUR Helium Notice D'utilisation

Push handle

Height-adjustable push handles
These handles are secured with pins to prevent them from
sliding out unintentionally. Opening the quick-release lever (1)
makes it possible to adjust the height of the push handles (2) to
meet your individual needs. As you move the lever, you will hear
a locking mechanism; you may now easily position the push
handle as desired. The nut on the tension lever determines how
tightly the push handles are clamped into place. If the nut is
loose after adjusting the tension lever, the push handle will also
be too loose. Turn the push handle from side to side before use
to make sure that it is clamped securely enough into place. After
adjusting handle height, always clamp the tension lever (1)
securely into place. If the lever is not secure, injuries could result
when ascending stairs. (Fig. 4.33).
NOTE – If the height-adjustable push handles are not fitted
properly, there is a risk that these will develop "play" or that they
move out of position. Please make sure that the relevant screws
are tightened correctly.
Folding push-handles
If the push handles are not in use, they can be folded down by
depressing the button (2). When they are needed again, simply
flip them back up until they click into place. (Fig. 4.34).

mm to 50 mm), the anti-tip tubes must be raised or lowered.
