Footrests
Your footrests are capable of being rotating inwards and out-
wards. To achieve this pull the release lever (arrowed right) up-
wards and rotate footrest in the required direction. The footrest
may be removed whilst in either position but not whilst in the
normal central position (as pictured).

Both armrests are swing-back and re-
movable. To operate, push the release
lever (a) and lift arm out of front socket.

To remove armrest pull plunger (b) and
hold whilst simultaneously pulling the
arm from the rear socket.

parked or stationary. To apply the brake, move the lever until the locking bar is
locked firmly onto the tyre.
Folding Back
This is available to reduce the overall height of the chair to
allow easier transportation. Whilst at the rear of the chair,
grip the small lever (arrowed opposite) and pull away from
the chair to release the pin allowing the handle section to be
folded down.
