Short Description
An electrically operated, steel and wooden framed, fully upholstered lounge chair with a reclining backrest, elevating legrest and stand up function. The seating system of the chairs feature air filled bags in the seat, backrest and legrest. It is available with or without wings on the back. The amount of backrest support can be customised.
Method Of Use
* The reclining and standing mechanism is operated by a hand held control on an extendable cord which can be mounted on the left or right side. When moved into the reclining position, the legrest will automatically move up to support the legs as the backrest reclines. The legrest returns to the normal position when the chair moves into the standing position. In the standing position, the chair lifts the person up and tilts them slightly forward. Releasing the switch will automatically stop the chair at any position.
Options
* The Airlift and Airwing Lift can have castors fitted

FEATURES
Seat
The air bag in the seat is encased within a foam base and covered by a layer of slow recovery foam. The front edge of the foam base has an extra layer of bonded polyester.
The seating consists of an air filled, welded PVC bag encased in a foam cushion. Air filled bags and bonded polyester cushions are also used in the backrest sections and legrest area.
Backrest
The air bags in the two sectioned contoured backrest are also covered by bonded polyester. The backrest can be lifted from the frame of the back of the chair to gain access to the back of each cushion section. A zipper at the back of each section allows access to the air bags. Each air bag has a valve and stopper, enabling the amount of air in each backrest section to be altered if overfilled. Once adjusted, the backrest cushioning is secured at the base of the backrest by hook and loop.
Armrests
Vary in length and style. The Airwing model has wooden hand grips.
Legrest
Incorporated in the chair with a chaise and extends from the edge of the seat when in the raised position. The foot section of the legrest contains an air bag with a bonded polyester layer over the top.
Upholstery
Available in a wide variety of fabrics including a two way stretch fluid resistant fabric that is bacteria resistant and fire retardant treated. Combinations of this fabric with regular fabrics is possible.
Controls
Hand held and can be located on either side of the chair. When not in use the controls can be stored in pockets on the outside of the chair, for easy access.
Customisation of the amount of support in the backrest is possible via adjustment of the amount of air in the backrest cushions.
The chairs features a "zero wall proximity" design which enables them to be positioned close to the wall while being reclined.
