Footrest Operation and Adjustment

Swinging Footrests In and Out

The footrests can swing in and out

if the user requires this. If required,

first flip up the footplates.

Then, press the lever to unlock the

footrest whilst rotating the footrest

in the required direction.

When required, rotate the

footrests to the forward position

until they automatically lock in

position. Flip down the footplates

if required.

Footrest Installation and Removal Follow the Assembly instructions for

details on how to install the footrests. To remove the footrests, swing out

the footrest and lift up to remove.

Footplate Adjustment.

1. To adjust the height of the footplate,

slacken the bolt at the end of the white

tubing of the leg rest, using an allen key

and turning the bolt anticlockwise. Slide

the footrest to the required height and

secure the footrest by retightening the

bolt. Tighten the bolt by turning clockwise

with an allen key.

2. To adjust the footplate angle,

slacken the bolt near the bottom

of the inner tube (chrome). Adjust

the footplate to the required

angle and resecure the bolt.

Aston Shower Commode (CWC003) Page 6 of 12

Castor Operation

The castors can be locked so that

the wheel cannot move forwards or

reverse nor will the castor fork

swivel. To lock the castor press

down on the locking tab with a foot

(as shown). To release press the

other side of the locking tab with a

foot. Unless the chair is fitted with

24” wheels, it is recommended that

the castors are always locked when

the chair is stationary.

Note: If fitted with 24” rear wheels,

it is essential that the rear castors

are locked and pointing forward. If

unlocked or locked at an angle they

will interfere with the rear wheels.

Castor Adjustment

The height of the chair and seat can be

altered by adjusting the castor height. To

adjust the castor height, remove the ‘E’ clip

or nut and bolt (arrowed). Reposition the

castor stem to the required position and

reattach the ‘E’ clip or nut and bolt. Repeat

for the other 3 castors ensuring they are all

set at the same height.

Note:

If the chair is fitted with the 24” rear wheels, the axle

bracket height should also be altered so that the rear

castors are nearly touching the ground when the 24”

wheels are fitted.

Models will be supplied with either ‘E’ clips or a nut and

bolt to secure the castor. ‘E’ clips do not require any

tools for height adjustment, whereas the nut and bolt

solution requires a spanner and allen key.

Potty Installation and Removal

The potty is installed and removed

by sliding the potty in to the two

rails mounted to the underneath of

the seat. To install, slide the potty

underneath the seat from the rear

of the chair, ensuring the potty sits

on both rails of the seat. Ensure

nobody is sat on the chair when

installing or removing the potty to

prevent any trapping risk.

Cover the potty with the lid to reduce the risk of spillages and carefully

dispose of the potty contents in a sluice or WC. Do not dispose of in an

open drain or sink as this can cause serious health risks.

The potty can be cleaned and disinfected manually or in an autoclave. It

should be cleaned after each use. Replacement potties are available from

Drive Medical under product code Z33303-16.

Seat Operation and Removal

The seat is a horse shoe shape with removable cover for the aperture.

When used as a shower chair, it is recommended that the aperture cover

is removed to allow better access to the occupant for cleaning. Ensure

weight is not applied directly to the aperture cover as this can fall

through the seat.

The seat clips on and off the frame. To remove the seat for cleaning, first

remove the potty and aperture cover. Then lift up the front for the seat

to release and slide the seat away from the chair. To attach the seat first

locate the seat by sliding the back of the seat in to the frame, then press

down on the whole of the seat until secure.

Arm Operation

The arms can flip up to aid side

transfer. Simply lift the front of the

arms to flip up, and then push down

to lower. The brakes should always be

applied before transferring.

24” Rear Wheel Kit - Installation

There is an optional kit available for the Aston commode which adds two

24” wheels and brakes, to allow the commode to be propelled by either

an attendant or the commode user (part code CWC003KIT). To install:

1. Without the 24” wheels, set the castor height to suit to the user.

2. Swivel the two rear castors so they are pointing forward and then

lock. This is to prevent the castors interfering with the 24” wheels

when installed.

3. Install the two brackets which receive the axles for the 24”

wheels so that the rear castors will be approximately 3mm from

the ground when the 24” wheels are added.

4. The wheels have quick release pins as axles. Press the button on

the quick release pin and insert through the centre of the wheel

and then insert the wheel and axle into the bracket mounted to

the chair. After installing, release the button and check the

wheels are secured on to the frame. Repeat for the other wheel.

5. Install the brakes in the position shown overleaf, ensuring that the

brakes operate securely, correctly and easily.

Quick Release Wheel Operation

To remove or install the rear wheels without tools, press the button on

the quick release pin in the centre of the wheel whilst pulling or pushing

to insert or remove the wheel. Ensure the wheel is secure before use.

Aston Shower Commode (CWC003) Page 9 of 12

Brake Operation

Push the brakes forward to lock

the wheel. Pull the brakes back to

release the brake.

Ensure both brakes are applied

when the chair is stationary and

when the user is side transferring.

Operation –24” rear wheels

When the 24” rear wheels are installed, the chair can be propelled by

either the attendant or the chair occupant. If the attendant is propelling

the chair, they should propel the chair using the push handle at the rear

and apply the castor brakes when the chair is stationary. If the occupant

is propelling the chair, they should use the handrims mounted on the side

of the wheels to go, manoeuvre and stop and then apply the brakes

(above) when the chair is stationary.
