More Details
METHOD OF USE: This mount can be `pushed` away from the user in the manner of a gate. Once positioned away , the mount is locked with a spring operated pin. The pin is released by a cable running horizontally underneath the device. The lock can be released by a carer or the user.

ASSEMBLY: The mount is attached via a frame clamp permanently attached to the tubing of the wheelchair designed to allow easy removal of the mount itself as required. The device is attached via a mounting plate affixed to the base of the device that connects with a wedge-like fixture at the head of the mount.

COMMENTS:
An additional mounting plate is required for attaching device to this mount.

CAUTION:
It is recommended that a counter weight be installed on the wheelchair for times when the device is swung away.
When the Locking Swing-away Mount is swung away the device is located outside the wheels of the wheelchair which makes it vulnerable to collision if the wheelchair is driven.
