Engaging/Disengaging The Wheel Lock - Otto Bock Skippi Instructions For Use Manual

Operation
NOTICE
Risk of damage when parking without engaging the
wheel lock. Deactivating the wheel lock may result in un-
controlled rolling of the power wheelchair. Therefore, make
sure that the wheel lock is engaged when parking the
power wheelchair.
In case of control unit failure or insufficient battery capacity,
the power wheelchair can be pushed. To do so, the wheel
lock is deactivated via the mechanical release. The wheel lock
releases are located on the right and left of the driving motors.
Releasing the wheel lock
To release the wheel lock, first pull the red safety pin on both
sides. Then the red wheel lock release lever can be swung
out. The safety pin prevents unintended activation of the
wheel lock release.
