Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the EASYSTAND 6000 standing frame! We at Altimate Medical, Inc. have designed the EasyStand 6000 with your comfort and happiness in mind. This manual is an integral part of your standing system and should be read completely and thoroughly by anyone that will be operating the unit. This will ensure the EasyStand 6000 is assembled properly and used in the most beneficial manner. AMI recommends an attendant be present when the EasyStand 6000 is being used.
Safety Precautions • The EasyStand 6000 is designed to accommodate individuals from 5'4" to 6'5" and up to 280 lbs. If you do not fit these specifications, Altimate Medical Inc. does not recommend the use of the EasyStand 6000. • Be sure that all nuts and bolts are tightened securely. Check your EasyStand periodically to make sure everything is secure. A set of hex key wrenches is included. • Altimate Medical Inc.
Assembly 1 Carefully remove the packaging to reveal your partially assembled Glider. Note: Some overseas shipments require additional assembly such as attaching the two base bars on the bottom of the unit. The angled bar attaches to the rear, casters toward the front. 2 For shipping reasons, the seat depth button will not be visible when you receive your Glider. Loosen the knob on the seat depth adjustment tube and pull up on the back until the seat button clicks into the blue ring.
4 Depending on what color you have chosen on the square seat depth tube, there are two to three different back angles available on the round tube. 5 Attach the actuator handle to the actuator receiver. Use the holes that will align the handle (the holes are placed so the handle is near the vertical position). Tighten securely. Note: For left-handed use, remove the cap on the opposite side of pump shaft. 6 Gently pull back on the handle as you apply pressure on the back of the seat to lower the seat.
When adjusting be sure to match the same color on the seat depth (square tube) and back angle (round tube). Here we are both on yellow. Tighten the knob on the seat depth tube after adjustment. Note: If colors do not match, damage to the unit will occur when going to the standing position. Warranty is voided. 8 Loosen the knob and slide the front pad into the upper bracket. Tighten securely. Note: The pad can be inverted for preference. We advise starting with the tall end up as shown.
10 The optional side supports attach to the grab bar. Remove caps, loosen the knob, adjust support, and tighten securely. 11 The Glider comes shipped with the resistance cylinders in a static position. This is usually a good way to begin use. To use the resistance cylinders, pull on the pin until it disengages from the hole. 12 Set the resistance on the cylinder to “1” , which is the least resistance.
13 Pull up slightly on the cylinder pin and align it with the hole on the kneepad tube. Insert the pin completely through the tube. 14 If you ordered the table option, remove the grab bar/front pad bracket and insert the table sleeve. Replace the standard knob with the longer studded knob, be sure the slot lines up with the tightening knob. 15 Remove the glide handles and insert the table with frontpad into the bracket. If desired, re-insert glide handles. Tighten securely.
16 If you ordered the Glider with a high back extension, it will be preinstalled. If you order the high back extension later, install it by removing the back and the caps. Slide the high back into the back tubes (you may have to tap with a rubber hammer). Replace the bolts. Tighten securely. 17 If you ordered the Glider with a Roho® seat, it will be pre-installed. To replace your present seat with a Roho® seat, pump the seat to the standing position, remove the bolts, and install the new seat.
Adjustments Moving To move the Glider, place your foot on the middle of the front brace and pull back on the handles with equal tension. The unit will tip onto the transport wheels and become mobile. Let it down in the same fashion, with your foot on the front brace. Note: If the floor under the Glider is not level, adjust the level glides under the unit by turning them in or out. Seat Height Never adjust the seat height when sitting in the unit.
Seat Depth To adjust the seat depth, depress the button on the square tube and move the back to desired position. Then adjust the round follow tube to match the color on the seat depth tube. Tighten the knob on the seat depth tube after adjustment. Note: If colors do not match, damage to the unit will occur when going to the standing position. Warranty is voided. Adjust the back so that the user is sitting upright in the seated position.
Transferring and Standing Lift the swing arms up before transferring. Grab the calf strap ring and attach the velcro onto the kneepad. The ring is used for ease of attaching and removing. It is not used as a strap attachment. Important: Always seek professional advice from your therapist or doctor before transferring. Position the optional side supports and lift yourself to standing by pumping the actuator handle with short easy strokes. Note: You can stop and rest at any time during the lifting process.
Hydraulic Pump Usage • An initial break-in period of approximately 50-100 full cycles is normal for the hydraulic unit. You may experience a squealing noise or a less-than-smooth forward stroke. The very close fit of its mating parts give each pump its own break-in “feel” and signature noise. • If the pump is leaking oil, call your local AMI Dealer for a replacement. The serial number will be needed. • Do not exert excessive force on the pump handle or use the pump handle to move your EasyStand around.
