Warnings The word Warning refers to a hazard. Failure to observe these warnings may lead to a fall, to the wheelchair tipping over, or loss of control. The helper and/or wheelchair users can suffer injuries. Therefore, please note the following warnings.
For the Assistant • Each helper must have enough strength to move the wheelchair including its user. This also means they must be strong enough to tip the wheelchair backwards in order to overcome obstacles such as getting up and down curbs. Also, the assistant must be able to detect any obstacles.
Description of the Product This STRONGBACK transport wheelchair by Strongback Mobility is a ready to use, completely assembled and, above all, comfortable wheelchair with integrated ergonomic back support. Additionally, the wheelchair is very easy to transport because it is ultra light-weight and can be folded into a very compact configuration.
Usage and Adjustments Generally, the STRONGBACK transport wheelchair is intended for transport and sitting of people with walking and/or standing weaknesses. The wheelchair has integrated support in the backrest, which simplifies and promotes ergonomically correct sitting. The wheelchair is not suitable for people who cannot sit.
