Purpose and indication

This product offers persons who have difficulty
walking or cannot walk the option of replacing
walking with driving using a muscle-powered
wheelchair to a technically feasible extent. The
objective is to maintain or increase the greatest
possible independent mobility and to integrate
the active wheelchair user in everyday life.
Indications: Walking impediment or limited abil-
ity to walk due to paralysis, limb loss, limb de-
fect/deformation, joint contractions/joint dam-
age, neurological and muscular diseases.
Contraindications: Some wheelchair options
are unsuitable for certain disease profiles or
handicaps. A suitable selection will be made by
the therapist/doctor/rehabilitation specialist
dealer during the consultation.
In addition - for safety reasons - the product
may only be operated by people who
• can move and coordinate their hands and
arms so that they are able to operate all
control elements without restrictions while
using the wheelchair.
