DOLOMITE STEP UP

Preparation

1. Width adjustment

Lay the platform support down and remove screws

with an Allen key No. 6. Adjust the side frame to

the required width. Replace the screws and tighten

them with a minimum of10 Nm.

Repeat the procedure on the other side.

The right and left side of the frame must

always be adjusted in/out by an equivalent

amount.

Be aware of the risk of getting fingers

pinched when adjusting the side frame!!

2. Brakes

Press down the outer edge of the brake caliper until

a click is heard and the wheel is locked.

Two of the wheels must be locked before

the user is assisted to or from the support

platform.

DOLOMITE STEP UP' can be adjusted in

three widths.

3. Charging the electric motor

Allow the battery to charge for 24 hours before the

platform support is used for the first time.

There are two lights on the battery; (A) shines yellow

when the battery is charging. (B) shines green when

the motor is in use.

When the battery capacity is low, a warning signal

sounds indicating that it is time to charge the battery.

We recommend that the battery is charged regularly,

e.g. every night, for maximum service life.

Connect the mains cable to the control unit and the

mains socket. The yellow light (A) indicates that the

battery is charging. When the battery is fully charged,

charging ceases automatically.

Ensure that the emergency stop is not pushed

in when the motor is to be charged.

Product features

The H-shaped lower frame has the same

dimensions in the front and back. Adjust the

width so that the platform can negotiate the

most narrow passage in the premises.

DOLOMITE STEP UP

1. 2. 3.

The height of the back part of the frame is low

to allow the platform to roll under furniture

which facilitates movement to and from a

seated position.

The height of the back part is 215 mm with

standard wheels and 190 mm with 100 mm

wheels (option).

All brakes are easy to access thanks to the

design of the frame.

Adjustment

1. Height adjustment

Lift the armrest slightly upwards in order to

pull the pin out. Adjust the support platform

to the required height. Check that the pin is pressed

in correctly in order to lock the height adjustment.

Do not pull out the pin if the user is putting

weight on the support platform

Lift the lever and adjust the support platform

to the required height by pulling upwards or

pushing gently on the armrests.

2. Emergency stop and emergency lowering

If it is necessary to make an emergency stop press

the red button (A) on the right of the

control unit. Turn the same button clockwise to

reset.

If emergency lowering is necessary, press the button

on the front of the control unit (B).

3. Adjustment of width between armrests

Loosen the knob that is located between the arm-

rests and adjust sideways to the required width.

Lock them again by tightening the knob.

4. Handle adjustment

Undo the knob that is located under the armrests

and adjust the handles to the required depth and

angle. Lock the handles by retightening the knob.

Use the hand control to adjust the support

platform upwards or downwards. A green

light on the control unit indicates that the

electrical motor is in use.

Regardless of body size, an angle of 25o

between shoulder and wrist position gives

the best conditions to enable the torso to remain

upright. The position is pre-set and is maintained

regardless of width setting.

Set the armrests so that the elbows are

located close to the body. This automatically

produces a stable three point position where the

hands are moved as close to each other as possible

in relation to the user's body size.

Side stops for the elbows are available as

accessories.

The forearm support is inclined 5°in the

horizontal plane in order to produce a

natural and erect position.

The handles are inclined forward 110° from

the forearm support. This produces an

ergonomic positioning of the wrists and the best

conditions for a firm grip.

Alternative hand grips are available as acces-

sories.

To facilitate height adjustment for the user

we recommend measuring the distance from

elbow to heel while the user is lying on a

bed.

DOLOMITE STEP UP has pressure-relieving

material in the cushions and they are made

in order to withstand disinfection. They are securely

attached with microfilm.

For replacement or cleaning remove them by hand.

When refitting ensure they are correctly positioned.
