Adjusting the footrest length

To adjust the footrest length remove the screw assembly on the footrest stem as shown in Fig. 11, adjust the length to suit. Replace the bolt assembly and tighten. Ensure the bolt is firmly located and tightened prior to use.

Note: The internal footrest stem may require cutting down in length to allow the footplate position to be raised (Fig. 15).

Footplates

The footplates may be flipped up to aid entry and exit from the chair. (Fig. 16). Do not use the footplates to stand on as the full weight of your body may cause the chair to tip forwards and damage the footrests.
