Sideguards (continued)
Sideguard with clothes protector
The clothes protector prevents clothes getting dirty from spray water,
(Fig. 6.9.5). You can set the position in relation to the rear wheel by
moving the sideguard. To do this, remove the screws (1 and 2).
After setting to the desired position, re-tighten the screws (see the
page on torque).
WARNING!
Neither the sideguards nor the armrests are to be used for lifting or
carrying the wheelchair.
Standard sideguard, flip-up, removeable with
short or long armrests (Fig. 6.9.6 to Fig. 6.9.7)
Sideguard, flip-up, removable with short or long armrests,
height-adjustable
The sideguard with rounded off front edges will allow you to get up
close to a table. The armrest can be height-adjusted as follows.
Push the lever (1) upwards and move the armrest (2) to the desired
height. Release the lever and press the armrest (2)
downwards until you hear it click into place. Always check that the
sideguards are correctly engaged.
To flip the armrest up, pull the lever (3) so that the sideguard is
released.
6.10 Push handles
Height-adjustable push handles
These handles are secured with pins to prevent them from sliding out
unintentionally. By releasing the tension lever (1) the height of the
push handles (2) can be set individually. If the lever is moved, listen
to make sure that it clicks into place. The push handle can easily be
set to the desired position. The nut on the tension lever determines
how tightly the push handles are clamped into place. If the nut is
loose after adjust ing 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 into place securely.
CAUTION!
•
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. 6.10.1).
•
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 folding push handles are not required, they can be flipped
downwards by pushing the button (1). When they are required again,
flip the push handles up, until they click into place. (Fig. 6.10.2).
