4.0 USE AND OPERATION
IMPORTANT !
ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD NEVER BE ATTEMPTED WITH THE USER IN THE CHAIR.
4.1 Tilt Function
The Raz-AT600 tilts up to 40
o
to provide comfort and relieve
pressure for the user. Two gas spring struts facilitate this action and
make the tilt smooth for the user and facilitate the tilting function for
the attendant. To tilt the chair, the attendant must squeeze both tilt
triggers and move the chair to the desired angle. To lock the chair
in place, the triggers are simply released. Directly after purchase,
the triggers and springs may seem stiff. This stiffness is normal and
diminishes with use. Using the tilt-assist pedal will help to tilt the seat
frame back. The tilt function must only take place when the casters
are locked.
NOTE: When the chair is mounted at the lowest height setting the
maximum potential tilt angle is 40
o
. The higher the chair is set, the
fewer degrees the chair can be tilted back.

TECHNIQUES PRIOR TO ASSISTING A USER IN THE SHOWER COMMODE. A PELVIC STRAP IS
RECOMMENDED FOR ANY USER AS AN EXTRA SAFETY PRECAUTION.
