REINSTALLMENT The multifunction and bearing wheelchair is suited for reinstallment. With the building block system the multifunction and bearing wheelchair can be fit to accommodate dif- ferent handicaps body sizes. Before reimple- mentation the multifunction and bearing wheelchair is to undergo a complete clean- ing and inspection.
OVERVIEW The overview shows, representative for all models, the most important components of the multifunction and bearing wheelchair. Pos. Description (8) Footplate (1) Push handle (9) Steering wheel (2) Pushing bar (10) Type plate (3) Head support (11) Brake lever – pressure brake (4) Back support (12) Locking knob –...
BRAKE Arrange an immediate repair of the brakes by your specialist workshop if the braking performance reduces. Multifunction and bearing wheelchairs with PU-tyres when stored for longer pe- riods of time, should be put away safely without activated pressure brakes, since otherwise permanent deformations to the tyre surface could occur.
Drum brake for accompanying persons The drum brake is activated by the accom- panying person through the brake levers (1). Check the locking points! Function as operating brakes Use both brake levers evenly and only light- ly in order to achieve a controlled decel- eration of the multifunction and bearing wheelchair.
LEG SUPPORTS Before any actions on the leg supports the multifunction and bearing wheelchair is to be secured against unintentional roll- ing motions. ☞ Therefore observe chapter Brake on page 12. Lower leg support For entry into, exiting or "scuttling" (forward motion of the multifunction and bearing wheelchair with the feet) the footplates (1) are to be folded up and the calf pads (2)
LEG SUPPORT UPPER PART The upper leg support with an inserted lower leg support is termed leg support [1]. Turning the leg supports to the side Leg supports turned to the side are re- leased automatically and can easily come off.
Swivelling in the leg supports For inward swivelling, let the leg supports swivel forward until the lock audibly engag- es [1]. ☞ After audibly swivelling the leg sup- ports inward check the respective lock- ing device. ☞ Afterwards observe the chapter Lower leg support on page 14.
Mechanically height-adjustable leg supports Never put the free hand into the adjust- ment mechanism. Have the leg support secured by an accompanying person against unintentionally falling down. Do not let the leg support drop on its own weight. – Danger of injury! Lifting/lowering the leg support Before lifting/lowering relieve the leg sup- port by an accompanying person by slightly...
Adjusting the height of the footplate Loosen the clamping screw (1) to adjust the height. ☞ Loosen the clamping screw (1) so far that no damage to the coating occurs during the adjustment. ☞ Observe the maximum extension mark (2). Telescope the footplate to the desired height and then retighten the clamping screw (1).
ARM SUPPORTS Do not use the arm supports [1] to lift or carry the multifunction and bearing wheelchair. Do not drive without the arm supports. No not grab between the frame and arm support. – Danger of squashing! When the multifunction and bearing wheelchair is being pushed by an accom- panying person the user is to place his hands onto the arm cushions or in his lap...
Adjustment of the armrest height For height adjustment of the arm support secure the support pad with one hand to prevent it from falling down. The maximum arm support height has been reached when the marking on the square tube is visible. First loosen the clamping screw (1) of the height stopper before adjusting the height of the arm support.
BACK SUPPORT WITH AN- GLE ADJUSTMENT A back support with a gas-pressure spring may only be reclined to the rear when the multifunction and bearing wheelchair is parked on an even and firm surface. Before any actions on the back support adjustment the multifunction and bear- ing wheelchair is to be secured against unintentional rolling motions.
Folding down the back support Fold open the safety latch (2) first for folding over the back support [1], then remove the pin (3). ☞ All the while hold the back support in position with one hand on the push bar or handle in order to prevent it from tilt- ing over to the back.
Back support upholstery The back support upholstery is attached to the back shell with velcro straps [1] and can be pulled off for cleaning or maintenance [2]. ☞ The cover can be removed with the zip- per for washing. ☞ Therefore observe the label with the washing instruction (3).
HEAD SUPPORT A head support attached to the multi- function and bearing wheelchair serves to support the position of the head, not as a transport safety. The upper edge of the adjustable head support [1] should always be close to the back of the head at about eye level.
SEAT INCLINATION Before any actions on the seat unit the multifunction and bearing wheelchair is to be secured against unintentional roll- ing motions. ☞ Therefore observe chapter Brake on page 12. The seat unit is continuously tiltable through the gas pressure spring [1]. ☞...
RISING AID Before using the rising aid, secure the multifunction and bearing wheelchair and fold up the footplates. ☞ Therefore observe chapter Brake on page 12. The seat is angled forward for the stand-up aid [1] (negative seat inclination). ☞ The negative seat angle setting serves as support for getting up when the multifunction and bearing wheelchair is standing.
WHEELS Tyres are made of a rubber mixture and can leave permanent or difficult-to-re- move marks on some surfaces (e.g. plas- tic, wooden or parquet flooring, carpets, mats). Drive wheels Do not use the multifunction and bear- ing wheelchair without mounted drive Tyre damage on pneumatic tyres wheels.
Handrim Take care that you do not squash your hands when driving narrow routes, e.g. building entrances, doorways, etc.. – Dan- ger of injury to the hands! Replace damaged handrims immediately in order to prevent your hands being in- jured by such handrims and in order to always have full control of your multifunc- tion and bearing wheelchair.
RETAINING STRAP Make sure that no objects are trapped be- tween belt and the body! The retaining strap is not part of the re- taining system for the multifunction and bearing wheelchair and/or the driver dur- ing transport in motor vehicles. The retaining strap [1] is screwed onto the respective lateral back brace with latches.
FOLDING/UNFOLDING The multifunction and bearing wheel- chair is to be secured before folding/un- folding. ☞ Therefore observe chapter Brake on page 12. Folding the wheelchair Proceed as follows to fold the multifunction and bearing wheelchair [2]: In necessary remove the seat cushion. 2.
