OPERATING

 

THE BRAKES

 

 
When parking the wheelchair, the brakes should be applied.  This is done by pushing the brake 
lever down to lock it against the wheel as shown. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF 

THE HANDLE

  

 
To raise or lower the handle at the back of the wheelchair the buttons on the adjustment knuckles 
should both be pressed in.  The handle can then be moved to the desired position and the buttons 
released.    The  locaters  inside  the  knuckle  will  click  into  place  automatically  to  secure  the  new 
position. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
ADJUSTING 

THE ARMREST

 

 
To adjust the height of the armrest there is a small hand wheel 
which  can  be  unwound  to  release  the  grip.    The  armrest  can 
then  be  pulled  up  or  down  and  re-positioned  and  the  screw 
then tightened. 

When adjusting the armrest ensure the occupant’s hands are 
kept away from the armrest, to prevent catching fingers when 
repositioning the armrest.
