Handling - Sunrise Medical Zippie YOUNGSTER 3 Directions For Use Manual

3.0 Handling

Übersicht
Folding up (Fig. 3.0).
First remove the seat cushion from the wheelchair and flip up
the (platform) footplate or the individual footplates. Take hold of
the sling from underneath in the middle and pull upwards. The
wheelchair will then fold up. (Fig. 3.0).
Transportation:
To move the mobility aid, the folded wheelchair should be lifted
by holding the front part of the cross-brace and the push
handles.
When transporting the unoccupied wheelchair in a vehicle, it
should be tied down or strapped in.
Unfolding (Fig. 3.1).
Open the strap on folded frame prior to unfolding.
Press down on the seat tubing (see picture). Your wheelchair is
then unfolded. Now snap the seat tubing into position in the
seat saddle. This can be facilitated by slightly tipping your
wheel chair. In this way, the weight can be taken off of one rear
wheel so that the wheelchair can be more easily unfolded.
WARNING!
Be careful not to get your fingers caught in the cross-tube
assembly, (Fig. 3.1).
Quick-Release Axles for Rear Wheels
(Fig. 3.2)
The rear wheels are equipped with quick-release axles. The
wheels can thus be installed or removed without using tools. To
remove a wheel, simply depress the quick-release button on the
axle (1) and pull it out, (Fig. 3.2).
CAUTION:
Hold the quick-release button on the axle depressed when
inserting the axle into the frame to mount the rear wheels.
Release the button to lock the wheel in place. The quick-release
button should snap back to its original position.
Setting the Directional Stability (Fig. 3.3)
Release the Allen screws (1) on the underside of the fork. You
can then undo the screw (2). You can now turn the black socket
(3) left or right.
Left – chair pulls to the left
Right – chair pulls to the right
Then tighten up the screw (2) again. Please set a 90° angle
from the fork to the floor.
Now tighten up the screw (1) again. (Fig. 3.3) Use.
