Tipping Tubes

Step tubes are used by attendants to push a wheelchair over an
obstacle. Simply step on the tube to push a wheel chair, for
example, over a kerb or step, (Fig. 6.5).
CAUTION!
Sunrise Medical strongly reccommends the use of a step tube
on any model where attendant use
is the predominant intended use.
Damage to the backposts may
occur if you constantly use the
backpost without a step tube, as a
lever to pull back on to tip the
wheelchair.

Footplates

Footplates (Fig. 6.6)
There are two types of footplates:
platform and divided. They can be
flipped up to facilitate getting in and
get ting out of your wheelchair.
Lower leg lengths
By removing the setscrews (1),
the footrest can be adjusted to fit
any lower leg length. Remove
setscrews, set tubing with footrest
in the desired position, and reinsert and tighten the setscrews
(see the page on torque). Make sure that the compo site plastic
pad is in the proper position under the setscrew. A minimum
interval of 25 mm from the ground should always be
maintained.
The screws used are fitted with threadlock at the factory and
can be adjusted 5 x after fitting. After that they should be
replaced or alternatively re-secured with threadlock to medium
tightness.
Width Adjustment of Aluminium Footrests
If the footrest width needs to be
adjusted, please undo the screw
(1), set the desired width, by
positioning 1, 2 or 3 spacers (2)
from outer to the inner side and
then refit the screws, (Fig. 6.7):

Angle Adjustment of Aluminium Footboard
The footboard can be flipped up to make it easier to transfer to
and from the chair, (Fig. 6.8 - 6.11).
This can be adjusted to alter the angle to the ground.
Tighten screw (1) on the outside. By loosening the clips (2) the
footboard can be moved to three positions both forwards and
backwards. By adjusting the set screw (3) the footboard can be
changed to a horizontal position. To do this, the footboard must
be flipped up. Make sure that after any adjustment work, all
screws are tightened correctly (see the page on torque). Ensure
that you maintain the minimum gap to the floor (25 mm).
