Adjustability / Assembly instructions
9.13. Footrest versions (Fig. 23)
The different footrest versions are adjustable in their depth by pushing the footrest bar more or less deeply into the
seat tube which features a corresponding adjustment hole channel. To do this, loosen the Allen head screws (Fig. 23,
item 1) and the screws of the interface adapter (Fig. 23, item 2) on both sides and move the footrest bars to the
desired position. Re-tighten the Allen head screws (Fig. 23, item 1 and 2).
9.13.1. Single-panel footrest, angle adjustable (Fig. 24)
Bolted to the wheelchair. The single-panel footrest is angle adjustable. Can be adapted to the lower leg length.
The footplate can be flipped up towards one footrest bar making transfers of the patient easier in case the legs are
capable to bear weight.
Height adjustment of the footplate (Fig. 25)
The footplate can be adjusted according to the lower leg length and height of the seating shell you use by loosening
the screw (item 1) at the footrest bar.
Note: Loosen the screw – do not completely remove the screw. There are two threaded holes in your footrest bar.
Depending on the desired adjustment, however, it may be necessary to completely remove the screw and use the
second hole.
• Make sure to re-tighten all screws and nuts after making adjustments!
Angle adjustment of the footplate (Fig. 26)
The footplate of the Dino 3 mobility base is angle adjustable.
To adjust, slide a 5 mm Allen wrench through the side holes in the footrest bar until the wrench locks into the Allen
screw in the footplate. Loosen the screw with several turns. A blow on the end of the Allen wrench will disengage the
clamp connection.
Adjust the footplate to the desired position and firmly re-tighten the screw.
9.13.2. Single-panel footrest for short lower leg length (Fig. 27, 28)
The footplate height can be adjusted using the lateral holes in the footrest bars (Fig. 28, item 1). To do this loosen
the screws using an Allen head wrench and an open-jawed wrench. Position the footplate at the desired height and
re-tighten the screw connection.
You can also use this screw connection to pivot the footplate around the screw connection point (Fig. 28, item 2)
to create a favorable position in relation to the seating shell you use. It will probably be necessary to readjust the
footplate angle afterwards.
The footplate can be flipped up towards one footrest bar making transfers of the patient easier in case the legs are
capable to bear weight. For angle adjustment please read section "Single-panel footrest, angle adjustable" on page 22.
9.13.3. Individual footrests, angle adjustable (Fig. 29)
With the individual footrests, angle adjustable, the right and left footplate can be flipped up to make transfers of the
patient easier.
For angle and height adjustments please read section "Single-panel footrest, angle adjustable" on page 22.
9.13.4. Individual footrests, elevating, angle adjustable (Fig. 30)
The footrests can be adjusted within the range from 15° to 90°. Pull the footrests upward until they have reached the
desired position. The footrests automatically lock in place. To reposition the footrests relieve the load on the footrests
and press the release lever (item 1) downward to lower the footrests. Bring the footrests to the desired position.
Make sure to always secure the footrests with your hand against uncontrolled falling downward when lowering it.
Swinging away the individual footrests, elevating, angle adjustable (Fig. 30)
Slightly lift the footrests and swing them to the inside or outside.
For height and angle adjustments please read section "Single-panel footrest, angle adjustable" on page 22.
9.14. Footrest assembly for seating shell interface (Fig. 31)

The Allen head screws (Fig. 31, item 2) allow adaptation to the lower leg length. The single-panel footrest is angle
adjustable.
• Make sure that the footplate does not contact the caster.
