4. Secure the product with lashing straps. To
do this, use the existing securing devices
in the vehicle. After securing, the product
may not roll, slip or tip over to the side any
more.
The tensioning straps used to fasten the
product securely in the transport vehicle must
only be attached to the motor vehicle compo-
nents intended for that purpose and to the
frame of the product.
Do not transport the product on the front
passenger seat. The product could slip and
impede the driver.
29.4 Passenger transport over obsta-
cles in the product
If the product with its user needs to be
transported over an obstacle and there are
suitable facilities such as a ramp or a lift avail-
able, then these should be used. If such facili-
ties are not available, then the obstacle is to be
overcome by being carried by two helpers.
When carrying the product, it may not be lifted
by the side sections, the drive wheels or the
footrests. PRO ACTIV recommends holding
the product by the frame and the back cross
bar to carry it.
The procedure with stairs is usually as follows:
Climbing up stairs:
1. Two assistants carry the product with its
user backwards up the stairs. The anti-
tipping supports are in the passive posi-
tion.
2. The assistant behind the product has the
control. They tilt the product and have a
firm grip on the back cross bar during the
transport process.
3. The second helper at the front grips the
product by the frame and lifts the product
up one step at a time.
4. The helpers then move to the next step up
and repeat the process until they reach the
end.

5. The user can help the climb by rotating the
handrim.
Climbing down stairs:
1. Two assistants carry the product with its
user forwards down the stairs. The anti-
tipping supports are in the passive posi-
tion.
2. The assistant behind the product has the
control. They tilt the product and have a
firm grip on the back cross bar during the
transport process.
3. The second assistant stands securely on a
lower step and grips the product by the
frame. They lift the product down one step
by letting the drive wheels roll over the
edge of the step.
4. The helpers then stand on the next step
down and repeat the process until they
reach the end.
5. The user can help the descent by breaking
on the handrim.
