RECLINER OPERATION, ALL MODELS
The Lumex Series FR566G / FR566DG / FR566GH / FR566DGH recliners feature three 
positions for patient comfort. The fourth position is a Trendelenburg (or Shock Position) 
that must be activated by a caregiver. The Trendelenburg Position CANNOT be activated 
by a patient while in the recliner. In addition, this recliner features a back that can be 
repositioned via the Adjustment Lever located on the Push Handle on the back of the 
recliner.
First Position
The rst position is the Upright Position. This position 
is ideal for patient transport and can be used to initiate 
patient treatment / therapy.
Second Position
The second position is the rst recline position and is also 
known as TV position. This position is ideal for patient 
treatment, rest and reading.
To Achieve Second Position / First Recline Position:
•  Reclining by patient: place hands on armrests and 
push body against recliner back to recline yourself to 
desired position. To bring yourself up, place hands on 
armrests and pull yourself up while leaning your body 
forward, away from the recliner back, while at the 
same time pushing down evenly on the footrest with 
your legs.
•  Reclining by attendant: standing on either side of the 
recliner, grasp the armrest with one hand and push 
handle with the other hand. Push back on push handle 
to recline. To return, grasp push handle and pull forward to raise the recliner back.
