6. Safety instructions for use
When using the chair, the following
safety instructions must be observed:
Danger of slipping!
Before using, check to be sure the seat is
securely pressed into the seat frame.
Always lock the swivel castors before using the
chair. This is to prevent the chair from rolling
away.
When sitting down into the chair, the user must
not sit on the front edge of the seat or seat
cushion. Be sure the user sits all the way back
on the seat.
Danger of tipping over!
The chair may be used only when the armrests
are locked into position, when sitting and when
rolling.
The chair may be pushed only using the push
bow (backrest).
The footrests must be swivelled away or folded
up whenever the patient sits down or gets up.
The patient must never attempt to stand on the
footrests!
The chair must not bump into door sills, jambs or
on uneven surfaces.
Use the chair only indoors and on solid, even,
non-slippery surfaces.
The chair may be pushed only at a walking
speed or less (with or without the patient).
Do not lean out of the chair (when the chair is
still or in motion). If the swivel castors are
swivelled inwards, then the stability of the chair
is decreased.
Danger of breakage!
The chair only is suitable for transporting
persons. Be sure to observe the maximum
allowable patient body weight (specified on the
nameplate)!
Never attempt to carry or lift the chair while a
patient is sitting in it.
Never expose the chair to wide temperature
variations. Observe the instructions concerning
the temperature range of use (see: 1.4).
Do not grab hold of or pull on attached objects,
such as IV Pole, armrest cushions.
Be sure other parts do not get jammed when
folding and unfolding the footrests.
Danger of falling!
Sitting down, standing up and moving the patient
should be supervised by a qualified care-worker,
as to the health condition of the patient.
Use of the chair by patients who do not have
complete physical control and normal movement
must not be done unsupervised.
Rolling the chair on any sloped surface may be
done only with the assistance of a care worker.
Warning! Danger of Injury!
At surface temperatures over 40°C (104°F),
there’s a risk of injury. Therefore do not expose
the chair to any source of heat (exposure to the
sun, storing near a heater, cleaning with hot
water) just before the chair is used. Before using
the chair, allow it to cool down.
Before using the chair from patients with
insensitive skin (persons who can`t feel any
increase of temperature and /or with skin
damage) the caregiver has to make a thermal
check (with the back of the hand).
Observe the instructions of use (see 1.4).

4. For the eventual installation of the IV Pole
(accessory), use the User Instructions that are
included with it.
10. Using the chair
When using the chair, the following points
must be adhered to:
Before use it must be assured that the
chair is in a proper condition for safe use. If
necessary, depending on the physical and
strength limitations of the user (patient’s
ability to move and muscle strength),
sitting down and getting up should not be
done without assistance from a care
worker. The chair may not be used for
long patient transport times.
10.2 Getting up
Before getting up, be sure the chair is stable and
secured against slipping away (see: 10.9) and
tipping over, that the armrests are locked in
position, and the footrests are folded away to the
side or folded up.
The patient must then move his body forward until
his feet are flat on the floor.
The patient must then place
both hands on the armrests
and slowly lift himself up.
The patient must not lean too
far forwards, in order to avoid
falling.
The patient should have the
care worker assist him when
getting up.
Caution – danger of falling!
The patient must not stand on
the footrests when getting up
or leaving the chair.
10.1 Sitting down
Before sitting down in the chair, be sure it is
secured against slipping away (see: 10.9) and
tipping over, that the armrests are locked into
position, that the shower/commode seat is properly
mounted, and that the footrests are folded away to
the side or folded up.
The patient must stand as
closely as possible near the
chair. Then he has to sit down
slowly on the whole seat
during supporting himself with
using both armrests.
If this is not possible due to his
physical limitations, then a
care-worker must assist him. If
necessary a patient lifter may
have to be used.
Caution – danger of falling!
To prevent the patient from
falling out of the chair, be sure
the patient is seated
completely on the chair, and
not just on the edge.
10.3 Swivelling the armrests outwards
By pulling out the locking pin, the locking
mechanism is disengaged and the armrests may
be swivelled back. When swivelling the armrests
up, check to be sure that the armrests are properly
seated in the locking position of the backrest and
locked by the locking pin.
Check the locking mechanism on a regular
basis for impaired function arising from
calcium deposits, which can impair the
movement.
10.4 Adjusting the footrest height
The footrests are height-adjustable in stages. To
do this, unscrew the screws of the footrests on the
side using an SW6 Allen key. Select the
appropriate height and tighten the screws of the
footrest. Be sure the screw is securely tightened.
10.5 Folding away the footrests
Swivel the footplates upwards and lift the footrests.
The footrests can now be swivelled back to the
side.
For transporting the patient, be
sure he is leaned back against
the seat back and be sure he
uses the footrests.
10.6 Removing the footrests
Lift up the footrests approx. 100 mm and turn them
outwards 90°. Now you can lift the footrests up and
remove them.

10.7 Removing the seat
The seat can be removed from its receptacles for
the purpose of cleaning or exchanging simply by
pulling it up.
10.8 Removing the back cushion (445.10.59)
The back cushion is fastened to the backrest with
studs. Press the buttons to remove the back
cushion.
10.9 Using the wheel locks
To lock the wheels, press the locking levers down
with your foot. The wheels are now locked and not
loose. Releasing the wheels is done by lifting up
the locking levers with your foot.
10.10 Handling the commode pan
Push the commode pan under- the seat from
behind the chair. To remove the pan, lift it up
slightly and pull it out.
For the model with a 2-piece commode rim, the
commode pan can also be removed from above by
lifting the seat and put back as well.
10.11 Driving over a toilet
(For models New York and Boston)
To drive the chair far enough over a toilet, slide the
clamp strut (A) by hand until it stops at the front
brace (B).
11. Troubleshooting
After using the toilet push back the
clamping bar (A), for safety
reasons, until it stops (C).
12. Care
In general the chair can be cleaned using
a mild conventional cleaning and
disinfecting agent (see advice page 8).
Simply wipe the chair with clean water and
cloth, and then wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Do not use an abrasive scouring agent or cleaner
(read the product instructions!) that contain
aggressive solvents (acids, thinners). Do not use
stiff cleaning brushes, as these will damage the
plastic surfaces or cause deposits to build up on
the plastic parts and other materials.
Keep the product clean and clean it in
regular intervals. In the sensitive areas is
hygiene very important.
13. Maintenance, Repair
The cause of accidents or damage may be due to
the late detection of wear and/or improper use, as
well as irregular or no maintenance.
For safety reasons and for preventing
accidents, the chair must undergo a
complete maintenance at least once a
year. (Refer to the Medical Products Act
and the MPBetreibV).
- 7 -
Page 8
REBOTEC / BA No.: 02.07.082/2016-12 GB
Maintenance
Periodic safety-related controls are needed:
Check for apparent damage: (cracks, fractures,
loose parts).
All screwed connections for tightness (especially
the castor wheels and the frame).
Function of the armrests and locking pins.
Function of the footrests (replace defective
footrests).
Rolling ability, check function of the wheels
(replace defective wheels).
Check accessories for defects.
Repair
If you have questions concerning maintenance
and repairs to the chair, then contact an
authorized dealer or medical equipment supply
outlet.
When making repairs, use only original spare
parts from REBOTEC. Observe all advisories
concerning guarantee and warranty.
Never make any unauthorised modifications or
conversions to the chair. These will only
adversely affect the safety and function of the
chair.
In such cases REBOTEC assumes no
liability!
Follow all the instructions when ordering spare
parts, re-use and product lifetime of the chair.
After a complete maintenance or repair of the
chair is done, we recommend a complete
cleaning for assuring hygiene. Follow the
cleaning instructions.
Notes:
For documenting maintenance, REBOTEC
supplies a Maintenance Report – Chairs.
Here you will find information on
maintenance and forms for documentation.
You can order the User Manual and the
maintenance report or see via our website at
www.rebotec.de. It is possible to print out
the information and to read it as needed.
