IV. WHEELCHAIR USE & CONFIGURATION
P. Contracture Footrest
WARNING: Ensure hangers are locked in place before using wheelchair. Unlocked
hangers while using the wheelchair could cause a fall resulting in serious injury or death.
•
Avoid tripping or falling during a transfer. Ensure your feet do not get caught in the
space between the footrests and avoid putting weight on the footrests as the chair
may tip forward and cause a fall resulting in a serious injury or death.
How to Use the Contracture Footrest
Fig. 16 shows the contracture footrest in the outside mount configuration. A center mount
configuration can be achieved by moving the leg rests to the opposite side.
1. The footrests can be angled toward the chair and away from the chair by simply adjusting at
the upper pivot point (Fig. 16:A).
2. The footplates on a contracture footrest can also be moved front to rear (Fig. 16:B), can
change the angle (Fig. 16:C) and can be flipped up for transfer (Fig. 16:D).
Q. Backrest
How to Fold the Backrest Down
1. Push the levers (Fig. 17:A) toward the front of the chair to disengage the latches. If the
backrest seating is attached, both latches must be disengaged simultaneously in order to
allow the backrest to fold.
2. Push forward on the backrest to rotate it downward. Once it begins to rotate forward the
latch levers may be released.
