GETTING IN & OUT
Assisted Entry
Same as unassisted entry, except a therapist provides
assistance at all times to safely get in.
Unassisted Entry
CAUTION!
Unassisted entry is ONLY allowed with the permission
of a THERAPIST, and ONLY after the user has gotten in
and out of the unit with the assistance of a therapist!
Preparing The Unit
Place the Gait Master is on a firm, level surface.
Unlock the upper and lower frames from each other if not
already done so. The seat must be in the lowered position
via the gas spring handle. The seat should already be in
the lowered position because the user actuated the gas
spring handle and lowered the seat in order to get out. If
the seat is not lowered, apply downward force on the seat,
and push and hold the gas spring handle to the side (Figure
16). Allow the seat to lower until it stops. Release the gas
spring handle.
