3.3. Armrests
• The independent folding armrests are easy to fold up.
• Protect the user when moving the armrests upwards and
downwards.
• In the folded up position, they should not fall back down
by themselves; in other cases: consult your supplier.
Option: Armrests with front closure
(Article number 6840 5660).
• When the client has taken a seat on the Nemo, the
armrests with front closure can be folded down; these are
then turned in front of the client.
• The armrests with front closure are secured in a horizontal
position.
• The armrests can be unlocked by pressing the security catch
at the hinging point on the frame (See figure 11). The arm-
rests can then be turned up for the client and folded up.
• Always protect the client when folding the armrests up
or down.
• The armrests can also be used as a support when taking a
seat or standing up.
Be aware that the armrests are not locked in all positions.
Option: Dual locking (Article number 6840 5661).
• The extra lock ensures that the front closure is also locked
when turned away (See figure 13).
When folding the armrests away, avoid fingers or body parts becoming jammed
between the armrest and the back support.
The armrest or front closure must not be used as a lever arm (e.g. when moving
the chair over an obstacle) or as a push / pull bar. You must not sit on it either.
This could damage the Nemo and / or present a hazard.
3.4. Head / neck support
• The Nemo has a head / neck support that can be adjusted in terms of both height and
depth.
