12 Safety instructions – prior to
driving / use
When getting into the wheelchair, do not
tread on the footrests as this may tip the chair
over.
Before every trip, check the condition of
the wheels (e.g. visual inspection of the spokes
and rims, check the tyres for damage, foreign
bodies and crack formation). If you have any
doubts about the serviceability of the product,
stop using it.
Check tyre pressures at regular intervals.
Ensure that you comply with the manufac-
turer's specifications which can be found on
the tyres. Tyre pressure that is too low affects
the driving behaviour of the product and has a
negative effect on the braking efficiency.
Before starting out, check that the prod-
uct's brake works. If all existing brakes are not
fully functional, no trips may be taken.
Every time before you use the product,
make sure that the folding mechanism is firmly
attached.
Check the stable condition of the seat and
back upholstery at regular intervals and in case
of doubt, have your dealer assess its condition.

Always ensure that your feet cannot slip
off the footrest when using the product, if nec-
essary by using a special securing device.
Before using the product, ensure that the
anti-tippers are in the operating position and in
good working order. In this case, it must not be
possible to swivel the anti-tippers to the side
when in operating position without having to
unlock them first.
The lower edge of the anti-tipper wheels
may not be any more than 5 cm from the
ground. If a larger gap is required or neces-
sary, then you need to work with your thera-
pists and doctors to practice and learn to han-
dle the increased risk of tipping.
Due to environmental effects, it is possible
that the properties and therefore secure at-
tachment of the push handle covers may
change detrimentally. For this reason, it is
important to check the handles are tightly fitted
and fixed in position prior to use. If this should
no longer be the case, then the push handles
may not be used until they have been fixed
Every time before you use the product,
make sure that the anti-tippers and push han-
dles are firmly attached and the quick-release
axles on the caster and drive wheels are also
securely locked in place.
Depending on the optional extras, the
product may have folding / closing mecha-
nisms that pose a risk of crushing injuries (e.g.
trapping your fingers). For this reason, please
allow your specialist retailer to explain how to
work these mechanisms and then have a go
yourself under instruction.
If required, you can have a suitable waist
belt fitted to your product. Please make sure
that the waist belt is set up so that it does not
have any negative impact on breathing, does
not strangle you should you fall or tip out of the
product and that you can easily remove your-
self.
