The product is delivered fully assembled by your specialist dealer. The instructions intended
for the specialist dealer on how to set up the wheelchair are given in § 3.
2.1 Recommendation for use CORAILLE XXL
The shell chair is intended for people who no longer have muscular behavior, so it is
necessary to be particularly vigilant during its use.
It is imperative to choose the model that fits most precisely to the size of the patient.
During maintenance, check the good operation of the springs and the brake, make sure the
buckles on the safety belt are securely locked.
The transfer from the patient to/from the shell chair must be with the brake activated and the
leg rest must be in a vertical position and the footplate adjusted to the ground in order to
avoid any tilting towards the front.
When the patient is installed in the shell chair, it is necessary to install the safety harness,
which must be adjusted as close to the body as possible so that the person cannot slide
under the harness after adjusting. The shell chair must be tilted to the backwards position to
eliminate the phenomenon sliding out the harness.
Once the installation is completed, the shell chair must be parked with the brake activated on
a perfectly level ground and after each movement, reactivate the brake.
For the elderly persons, the leg rests must be in the vertical position.
