5. Operating Instructions
Prior to using the Oxford Transaid 130, check and confirm the following:
• Is the back support in the correct position?
• Can the seat support tubes move freely?
• Do all the castors rotate freely?
• Ensure the patient’s weight does not exceed the safe working load of 130kg.
• Ensure the working environment is clean and tidy.
Instructions for use:
Step 1 Position the Oxford Transaid directly in front of the patient where they are sitting (see Fig. 4).
Step With the back support in the storage position, instruct the patient to place their feet centrally on
top of the footplate. Assist the patient if necessary. Now apply the brakes on the rear castors.
Step Ask the patient to lean forward, then pull themselves up into the standing position (see Fig. 5).
Ensure the caregiver is close at hand to provide support if required.
NoTE: Ensure the patient does not over- extend when trying to stand. If necessary (prior to the patient
standing), carefully re-position the Transaid so the patient can achieve a more comfortable standing
position.
