How to Extend the Footrests on Your Wheelchair

The footrest extension consists of three parts that need to be properly aligned to adjust the height. Follow these steps to ensure a secure fit:

Step 1: Insert the Multi-Thread Tube into the Lower Footrest

1. Identify the Multi-Thread Tube (the small black and silver part with multiple threaded holes).
2. Slide it into the Lower Footrest Tube (the bent silver tube connected to the footplate).
3. Align the holes on both tubes so the securing bolts or pins can be inserted.

Step 2: Insert the Lower Footrest into the Upper Footrest

1. Take the fully assembled Lower Footrest (which now has the Multi-Thread Tube inside).
2. Insert it into the Upper Footrest (the vertical frame of the wheelchair).
3. Again, align the holes on both parts to ensure they are level.

Step 3: Secure the Footrest

1. Once all the parts are correctly aligned, insert the securing bolt.
2. Make sure they are tightened properly to prevent any movement.
3. Test the footrest by gently applying pressure to ensure it’s stable and locked in place.

Adjusting the Height

• If you need to raise or lower the footrest, repeat the process by adjusting the position of the Multi-Thread Tube before securing it.
