Swivelling away the side
The legrests can be swivelled outwards
after the calf strap has been detached
at one side, for an easier transfer to/
from the wheelchair or a closer driv-
ing up to a cupboard, bed or bath (fig.
47).
First lift the locking device (fig. 48/
➀
)
and then swivel the legrest outward
(fig. 47).
!
Attention:
Swivelled-away leg stump supports
are automatically unlocked and can
easily fall off. Note this when han-
dling (e.g. transport).
Do not forget to check the correct
functioning of the respective lock-
ing device (fig. 49/
➀
) after having
swivelled in the legrests again.
