To install the system:
1. Position the collapsed device so that the undersides of the legs face upward.
2. Locate the leg caster marked L on the hex surface. Engage the brake by depressing the
blue pedal. Partially insert the caster stem into the end socket of the left leg, which
is on the same side as the oxygen tank hoop. Rotate the caster until the notch in the
hex is positioned exactly as shown (see Photo 5). The notch should be positioned in
line with the leg. The SureTrek tracking system will not work if the notch is improperly
oriented. Push the caster fully into place, making sure the hex engages its socket (see
Photos 6 & 7).

3. Repeat Step 2 with the right leg caster marked R, making certain the notch is oriented
correctly and the hex is fully engaged.
4. Engage the brake of a nose caster by depressing the blue pedal marked ON. Insert
the caster stem into a socket in the IVEA nose. Rotate the caster until the hex sides
align with the socket, then push fully into place. Note that nose casters do not have
orientation notches.
5. Repeat Step 4 with the second nose caster. Release the brakes on all four casters by
pulling up on the blue pedals.
6. When all four casters are correctly installed, the deployed IVEA will rest stably on the
floor. If not stable, check that all caster hexes are fully engaged in their mating sockets.
OPENING THE IVEA FROM STORAGE
1. Rest the collapsed IVEA on the floor. Lift
up the top of the main column with one
hand and lightly push down on the rear
portion of one leg and then the other,
with the other hand (see Photo 8).
2. As the legs begin to drop away from
the main column, the IVEA will open on
its own. Gently lift the top of the main
column and guide the IVEA until it "clicks"
into a locked open position.
