Legrests and footrests
The footrests are swing away and detachable. They swing out by pulling the release
lever. When lever is released, the footplate will simply swing out and lift off the two
locating Pins.
When refitting footrest to wheelchair ensure that it is located on both locating pins.
Damage may result if only one pin is used. Once the legrest is on the locating pins and
with foot plates up, swing legrest towards centre of chair firmly so latch will click into
position.
