User manual – EASyS Advantage seat unit

Scope of delivery

The EASyS Advantage seat unit is delivered pre-assembled. If the seat unit was ordered together with the A chassis Ad-
vantage, the seat unit is already mounted to the chassis upon delivery. The seat unit has been upholstered at the factory
with seat and back cushions. The additional pad is attached under the seat cushion. In addition, the seat unit is supplied
with a user manual and an Allen wrench. The Allen wrench is required for adjusting the height of the footrest.

Basic equipment of the seat unit

BSS (Balance Safety System) – safety seat; physiological pivot points in the hip and knee joints; breathable seat and back
cushions as well as side pads with safety reflectors; additional pad for more comfort; body side guide; angle-adjustable,
foldable and height-adjustable foot support; holder for sun and rain cover without leg blanket; infinite adjustment of the
back height, hip angle, seat depth and seat width; easily accessible setting by means of star screws.

Setup and assembly

The settings / adjustments must always be made by trained / instructed professionals (such as medical product con-
sultants of specialist medical dealers). Using the release lever, the seat can be removed from the A chassis Advantage
without tools. It is important that the release lever remains actuated while inserting and removing the seat unit. No tools
are required when using the seat unit and the chassis for the first time, except for the Allen wrench that is included in
the scope of delivery.
The accessories are attached / removed using commercially available tools. Separate installation and operating instruc-
tions are included with the accessories. If these are missing, you can download the instructions from the download
section of our website www.thomashilfen.com at any time.
Inserting the seat unit
Activate the release lever on the backrest and insert the seat unit into the chassis from above (Fig. 1). Make sure that the
buttons on the sides of the seat unit between the folding joint and the connecting strap of the rear frame and the sliding
support are properly threaded through (Fig. 2). Now guide the buttons on the sides of the seat unit into the receiving
slots on the sides of the chassis (Fig. 3) and let the seat unit slide into position (Fig. 4). When you release the trigger, the
seat unit engages into the closest position of the hole matrix.
CAUTION: Always ensure that the locking pins on both sides of the seat unit engage firmly into a hole in the hole ma-
trix.
Removing the seat unit
To remove the seat unit, actuate the release lever and pull the seat unit upwards out of the frame (Fig. 1). Make sure that
the buttons on the sides of the seat unit between the folding joint and the connecting strap of the rear frame and the
sliding support are properly threaded through (Fig. 2).
Attaching the footrest
The footrest must be fastened to the knee joints. To do this, align the ratchet joints and fasten them to the screws (from
the inside), the saddles (from the outside) and the eccentric levers (from the outside; Fig. 5).
Seat cushion
The seat cushion consists of two elements: the main gray cushion as well as a black additional pad for more comfort.
The additional pad is attached with hook and loop to the underside of the main cushion (Fig. 6). In this regard, pay
attention that the notch in the additional pad is facing forward (Fig. 7). Fasten the seat cover by firmly attaching it to
the rear end of the seat plate using the hook and loop flap (Fig. 8). The lower two hook and loop straps are wrapped
around the tubes of the footrest.
If necessary, the additional pad can be removed.
