Transferring
You can transfer either forward, left or right from the chair. The
armrests are hinged in the back and can swing up out of the way
for transfers. Press “buttons” at front of armrest bar (on either
side) to release armrest (see figures 5 and 6).
Assisted transfer; for a wheelchair user who cannot bear any
weight on their legs, and cannot transfer independently, the use of
an appropriate hoist is recommended.
Any carrier who assists in physically transferring the wheelchair
user must be properly trained in modern moving and handling
techniques.
