5.7 Armrests
5.7.1 Armrests-flip up
The armrests on both sides of the wheelchair can be
flipped up to allow side transfer, (Fig. 5.11-5.12).
For side transfer flip the armrest all the way up until it
goes into its mechanical stop. This frees your space for
side transfer.
To bring the armrests back into their position flip it all the
way down until it sits on its mechanical stop. Guide it in its
downward movement and do not let it fall on its own.

5.7.2 Armrest Height Adjustment
The following section outlines armrest height adjustment.
In the case of either fine or coarse adjustment, it is a
two-part process:
PART I: Adjust the armrest height through rotation
PART 2: Adjust arm pad angle.
1.Basic fine adjustment.
PART 1 (fig. 5.13 & 5.14)
Up to one inch of armrest height adjustment can be
achieved using the 5mm fine height adjustment screw to
fine tune the armrest’s height.
Fig. 5.13
1. Loosen the 6mm rotation bolts on both armrests (A).
2. Turn the adjustment screws (B) counter-clockwise to
raise the armrest or clockwise to lower.
3. Retighten both rotation bolts (A).
Tighten (A) 20 Nm or 177lbf/in of torque.
PART 2 (fig. 5.15 & 5.16)
1. Loosen the 4mm armpad angle pivot bolts (A) on both
armrests. Remove the 4mm angle index bolts (B) on
both armrests.
2. Tilt both arm pads down (or up in the case of a
lowered armrest) until the arm pads are in the
preferred angle. Check to see if the height is correct.
3. Retighten both armpad angle pivot bolts (A). Replace
both armpad angle index bolts (B).
Fig. 5.14
Tighten (B) to 10 Nm or 88.5lbf/in of torque for both sets
of bolts.
