How to Use

The Vela 700E is designed to be sat on. It is used like a standard office chair but has the added stability of a brake, important for safe transfers. The electric lift function is operated by a simple touch button underneath the armrest. There are backrest recline and seat tilt functions which are operated using levers or a remote control. The smooth running wheels allow the user to move around while seated. The Vela 700E is customisable and there are a variety of features available including footrests, brake extensions and lateral supports.

Always read the label and follow the directions for use.

Why Our OTs Love Vela!

• Independence
Our Vela range provides people with the ability to move and engage in everyday activities easily and safely.

• Safety
The chair’s electric lift function and brake reduces a person’s risk of falling by providing a sturdy base for people when transferring, adjusting and sitting in the chair.

• Individualised
Almost every feature of a Vela chair can be set up to meet the individual user’s needs. There is also a range of optional accessories to meet everyone’s needs.

• Innovative design
Vela’s unique design of four smooth castor wheels and a small frame, means the chair can be ‘walked’ by the user to access many areas of the home or workplace.

• Easy to use
The electric lift function of the chair is operated by a simple button under the armrest.

• Universal design
Vela chairs look like standard office chairs meaning the chair will not stand out within an office or home setting as being assistive technology.

• Easy to clean
The chair is available in a variety of fabrics including synthetic leather, making the chair easy to disinfect between users when used in a communal setting such as in a therapy room within a clinic or rehabilitation unit.

Optional Accessories

Additional accessories are available for our Vela chair range, including a variety of armrests, footrests, leg rests, brake types, postural supports, seatbelts, and carer-specific accessories such as a push bar or remote control. Seat rotation / swivel is also available.

There is the option to make all of the main functions of the chair electric including seat and backrest tilt and the brake. The electric lift function comes standard with every chair and can be operated from the right or left armrest depending on the user’s preference.

The Vela 700E is available in a variety of colours and fabrics.
