SPECIFICATIONS/ UTILI-
ZATION
Due to the numerous infinitely-variable
adjustment possibilities of the PROFI 3,
this wheelchair also offers persons with
a higher level of disability the necessary
safety during sport usage.
As a special development for athletics
and normal sport, the PROFI 3 is a reli-
able maneuverable partner that will of-
fer you all its advantages and thus much
pleasure in use, even during its normal
use as an active wheelchair.
It serves exclusively for the transporta-
tion of a person on the seat and not as
ladder or as a means of pulling or trans-
porting items, or similar.
Note:
Parking brakes are not permitted for
some types of indoor sports.
The pressure brakes are therefore re-
movable for a quick change from ac-
tive wheelchair to sport wheelchair.
The PROFI 3 is designed for firm and
level surfaces. For your own safety, do
not drive onto soft, uneven surfaces.

DRIVING BEHAVIOR

Allow your wheelchair to be adapted to
your own personal needs, only then will
your PROFI 3 offer you an optimum driv-
ing behaviour.
