3.3 Definitions (Cylinder Table/Matrix):
"Slave" cylinder is the cylinder that does not have an actuator on the end.
"Master" cylinder is the cylinder that has the actuator on the end.
The cylinder force "N" refers to Newtons (lifting force provided by the cylinder)
When changing cylinders make sure, if you are using four cylinders, that the two Slave cylinders are always on the
outside position (see picture on previous page) When attaching cylinders, insert the bolts from the inside towards the
outside.
The cylinders are labeled as 300N, 600N or 800N. (The 800N has the highest force) Make sure to check the
labeling on the cylinder before attaching it to the chair, in order to ensure the appropriate cylinders are being
used for the weight in the chair.
The Cylinder Table/Matrix on the previous page outlines which cylinder configuration should be used for the
amount of weight in the chair, under heading Approx. Lifting Capacity (Lbs)
Example: For a patient who weighs between 270 lbs – 404 lbs use the configuration of no outside (Slave) cylinders
and use both 600N cylinders (Master cylinders) on the inside.
If the patient is close to the maximum weight that the particular cylinder configuration is appropriate for, use the
guidelines for the next (higher) weight category configuration.
CAUTION: The REVIE BARI tilts and reclines when the handles are activated. Setting the cylinder
configuration is critical for safe tilting and reclining
CAUTION: Always confirm the cylinder configuration is appropriate for the patient's weight prior to use.
3.4 Back Recline
The back can be reclined to any position from the most
upright to the lowest within its range. Use back recline to
position the resident, assist with cleaning the abdominal
area and with washing the resident's hair.
To Adjust the Back Recline:
WARNING: Always tilt slightly before reclining to
prevent resident from sliding.
- Place right hand on the tilt bar and squeeze the tilt
handle with left hand.
- Raise or lower the back until the desired angle is
required.
WARNING: Do not operate tilt and recline handles
together
