3.8 HINGING RAILS
3.8.1 Repositioning the Rail
The chair rail has two positions, up and down.
Both positions lock the rail into place. To
lower the rail, apply a lateral force to the top
of the rail (Figure 3-21) and pull on the red rail
handle (Figure 3-22). Allow the rail to hinge all
the way down until it locks into place in the
rail catch (Figure 3-23). To raise the rail, take
hold of the rail and lift it until the latching
mechanism locks into place. (Figure 3-21).
WARNING: When patient is seated in
the chair, ensure the side rails are up
and the patient is secured with restraint
straps.
WARNING: Rail release handle will not
release unless force is applied laterally to
outside top of rail.
WARNING: The chair has a warning
label located on both side rails indicating
a pinch point between seat section and
side rail.
