Operation; Wheel Blocking; Footrests - Lopital Flexo Benutzeranleitung

3. Operation

3.1. Wheel blocking

• The brake can be applied on the Flexo by pushing the blue
lip (1) on the wheel downwards (See figure 1).
• In order to take the Flexo off the brake, the same lip on
the wheel must be moved upwards by tapping the upper
side of the lip (2) (See figure 1).
Option: Steering wheel left front (Article number 7556 0025).

3.2. Footrests

• Before the client takes a seat in the Flexo, the footrests must be folded upwards. This
will ensure there is sufficient space for the person to easily take a seat in the chair
(See figure 2). If more room is required, the footrests can be turned out (See figure 3).
First, the footrests must be slightly raised (1) and then they can be turned outwards (2).
• The carer or the client first raises one leg; the carer can then fold the footrest down
(See figure 4). The same procedure is then carried out with the other leg.
