The wheelchair can be lifted and transported in many
different ways. However it is advisable to fold the
wheelchair down to facilitate these actions.
In order to reduce weight, remove the rear wheels (see
chapter 5.5 Quick release rear wheels ) and close the
wheelchair. In order to have greater balance while
lifting (see chapter 5.3 Closing system ) take hold of
the wheelchair using one of the rear handles and the
front frame of the wheelchair (see fig. 33).
