Adjustment Options 

The FutureSafe offers the following options to adjust it cor-

rectly to suit every situation: 

 

Pivoting the swivel arms (see Section 5.2.1, page 18), 

 

Lengthening and shortening the swivel arms (see Sec-

tion 5.2.2, page 19), 

 

Adjusting the height of the head- and backrest (see 

Section 5.2.3, page 20) and  

 

Moving the FutureSafe forwards or backwards (only ap-

plies to FutureSafe with side anchorage plate, see Sec-

tion 5.2.4, page 21). 

5.2.1

 

Pivoting the swivel arms 

The interior of the vehicle can be put to optimum use, to 

transport goods or passengers who are not in a wheel-

chair, when the swivel arms are pivoted away to the side 

of the vehicle. The swivel arms are pivoted out of the vehi-

cle in order to load a wheelchair-bound passenger. When 

driving the vehicle with a wheelchair-bound passenger on 

board, the swivel arms are adjusted such that the head- 

and backrest are located directly behind the passenger. 

 

Figure 4: Pivoting the Swivel Arms 

 

Pull the operating lever of a swivel arm upwards, so that 

it lifts out of the latch (see Figure 4). 

 

Pivot the swivel arm by 90° or 180° to the desired posi-

tion.
