water from splashing up and soi-
ling clothing.
Their position relative to the rear
wheels can be set by adjusting the
sideguards.
To do this, remove the screws (1
and 2). The armrests (optional) can
be adjusted to the desired height
after the screws (3) have been
removed. When finished, make

(see the page on torque).

Options – Push Handles
Height-Adjustable Push Handles
(7.90)
These handles are secured with
pins to prevent them from sliding
out unintentionally. Opening the
quick-release lever (1) makes it
possible to adjust the push hand-
les to meet your individual needs.
As you move the lever, you will
hear a locking mechanism; you
may now easily position the push
handle as desired. The nut (2) on
the tension lever determines how
tightly the push handles are clamped into place. If
the nut is loose after adjusting the tension lever, the
push handle will also be too loose. Turn the push
handle from side to side before use to make sure
that it is clamped securely enough into place. After
adjusting handle height, always clamp the tension
lever (1) securely into place. If the lever is not secu-
re, injuries could result when lifting over obstacles.
Fold-Down Push Handles
(7.91)
If the push handles are not in use,
they can be folded down by
depressing the button (2). When
they are needed again, simply flip
them back up until they click into
place.

Before using your wheelchair
ensure the lap belt is worn.
The lap belt must be checked on
a daily basis to ensure it is free
from any obstruction or adverse
wear.
Always make sure that the lap
belt is correctly secured and
adjustedprior to use. Too loose a
strap could cause the user to slip
down and risk suffocation or
cause serious injury.
The lap belt is ftted to the wheel-
chair as shown in the illustrations.
The seat belt comprises 2 halves.
They are ftted using the
existing seat stay retaining bolt
ftted through the eyelet on the belt.
The belt is routed under the rear of
the side panel. (Fig. 24)
Adjust the belt position so buckles
are in the centre of the seat. (Fig.

and slide adjusters.
Ensure belt is not
looped at male
buckle.
When fastened check space
between the lap belt and user.
When correctly adjusted it should
not be possible to insert more
than
the fat of the hand between the
lap belt and the user. (Fig. 26)
The lap belt should be fxed so
that the belt sits at an angle of 45
degrees across the users pelvis.
The user should be upright and be
as far back as possible in the seat
when correctly adjusted. The lap
belt should not allow the user
to slip down in the seat. (Fig. 27)
