RMS MARLEY - Page 7

LATERAL SUPPORTS
Lateral Supports supplied with screws and fixings.
Tools Required: 10mm Spanner.
NOTE:
The Lateral Supports are handed by virtue of a small recess in the rear of each
side support pad panel. This recess is to assist with retaining the pad and should
always be located at the top.
 Partially separate the backrest upholstery from the backrest panel, sufficient to
gain access to the relevant mounting slots for the Lateral Supports.
 Whilst holding each Lateral Support in position against the backrest panel, with
the recess at the top, insert two M6 Carriage Bolts through the Support bracket
from the front, then through the backrest panel and secure at the rear using the
M6 nuts and washers supplied.
 Refit and secure the backrest upholstery around the Lateral Supports as below.
 Position the Lateral Supports to suit the user’s requirements and finally secure
sufficiently to prevent any movement.

 Worn or damaged upholstery can lead to hygiene contamination, cause injury
to the user and, in some cases, fail to support the user correctly. Regular
inspections of all upholstery should be made and any defects should be rectified
as soon as possible.
 Ancillary devices, such as the headrest, positioning belt, harness or pommel
should always be checked for security and positioning on a daily basis.
 The parking brakes should always be applied whenever parking the marley,
before attempting to transfer the occupant, or making any adjustments.
 Never leave the marley parked unattended or on a slope, with the occupant
seated.
 Objects should never be suspended from the push handle, as this could
seriously affect the overall stability of the marley.
 Regular inspections of the buggy should be made and any defects reported to
the relevant authority for rectification as soon as possible.
NOTE: Any reference to Left or Right in this manual, will refer to the Left or
Right side when sitting forward facing in the seat unit.
