6.4 Pushing the Mobility Device in Freewheel

manually while freewheeling, the motor locks must be
disengaged.
Pushing the mobility device by hand may require more
physical force than expected (more than 100 N). The
necessary force nevertheless complies with the

The intended use of the freewheel mode is to
maneuver the mobility device over short distances.
The push handles or push bars support this function,
but be aware that there might be some interference
between the feet of the assistant and the rear part of
the mobility device.
