Double Handrim - SORG Vector User Manual

3.1.3 Double handrim

Moving a wheelchair with a dual handrim requires a
lot of practice. Familiarize yourself, with the help of an
experienced carer and in familiar surroundings, with
the technology of this type of particular way of driving.
(1) When transporting etc. remove the telescopic tube
(A) by pushing both ends together. Unlock (B) the rear
wheels and remove them.
(2) To set them back on proceed in the same way and
pull the telescopic tube over the wheel axle (C). Make
sure the seat is correctly secured in place.
Before reusing the wheelchair the lock (B) must be
activated.
ATTENTION
To brake you must apply the same pressure to the
handrims (inside and outside), otherwise you will
swerve unwillingly and become a hazard to yourself
and your surroundings.
ATTENTION
Especially when driving downhill, make sure that
you are able to bring your wheelchair to a stop at
any time or have someone help you.
