7. Accessories
7.1. Lateral Supports
Lateral supports help to maintain an individual’s posture and encourage an appropriate midline
position.
Lateral Supports are generally used as a pair with one fi tted to either side of the chair.
They adjust independently but operate in the same way.
The lateral supports attach to the chair through the lateral support bar at the back of the chair.
To attach or detach the lateral supports, simply unscrew the “triangular” handle and slide each
support into or from the bracket at the back of the chair.
• The two lateral supports can be moved horizontally (wider or narrower) or rotated vertically
(up and down) to support the occupant of the chair.
• When appropriate positioning has been found then the “triangular” handles should be tightened
to provide stable and secure support.
IMPORTANT
Both lateral supports can be completely removed when required or rotated to the back of
the chair. This is essential during the removal or rotation of the arm modules.
7.2. Height Adjustable Flip-Up Footrest
The height adjustable footrest provides added support and positioning for the feet and is highly
recommended to aid foot-drop and other similar conditions.
The footrest can be raised to lie against the legrest when entering or exiting the chair and folds
down when in use.
When lowered, the footrest sits at 90°® to the legrest.
CAUTION
The carer should keep hands clear of the footrest hinge whilst operating the fl ip-up footrest
to avoid risk of pinching fi ngers.
