REPLACING FOOTREST GUARD (FIGURE 2)
NOTE: Right and left sides are determined from the user’s seated position.
1. Engage wheel locks.
2. Extend the footrest of the recliner.
3. Carefully tip the recliner onto the right side. Be sure there are no obstructions on or
around the floor before doing this.
4. Remove mounting bolt from support tube and cut tie wrap.
5. Remove existing footrest guard from recliner.
6. Install NEW footrest guard around the footrest frame as shown in DETAIL “A” of
FIGURE 2.
NOTE: Footrest guard needs to be folded in two (2) locations so it will wrap entirely around the
upper frame. Refer to the scored lines on the guard to determine where the folds should be.
7. Once folded, align the two (2) mounting holes of the footrest guard with the
mounting hole in the upper footrest frame as shown in DETAIL “B” in FIGURE 2.
8. Using the mounting bolt, secure the footrest guard and upper frame to the support tube.
CAUTION
DO NOT overtighten tie wrap during installation, otherwise the guard may
buckle or deform.
WARNING
Tie wrap should be installed with the excess material and tie wrap head
located on the interior side of the footrest assembly. Failure to do so may
result in serious injury.
9. With a tie wrap, secure the footrest guard to the upper side frame as shown in
DETAIL “B” in FIGURE 2.
NOTE: If necessary, trim excess tie wrap to prevent binding and pinching.
10. Place recliner in the upright position. Close the footrest. If binding or pinching of
footrest guard occurs, call Invacare at the number listed on the back cover.
11. Carefully tip recliner onto the left side. Be sure there are no obstructions on or
around the floor before doing this.
12. Repeat STEPS 4-10 to install remaining footrest guard.
