BRAKE
Arrange an immediate repair of the brakes
by your specialist workshop if the braking
performance reduces.
Wheelchairs with PU-tyres when stored
for longer periods of time, should be put
away safely without activated pressure
brakes, since otherwise permanent defor-
mations to the tyre surface could occur.
By locking the brakes with the brake lever
(1), the wheelchair is secured against rolling
away unintentionally (parking brake).
Depending on the version, the wheelchair
can be equipped with pressure brakes (2) or
with drum brakes (3).

Locking the brakes
To secure the wheelchair against any unin-
tentional rolling, press both brake levers for-
ward all the way [4].
☞ It should not be possible to push the
wheelchair forward when both brakes
are locked.
Releasing the brakes
Pull both brake levers back all the way [2].
Service brake
The wheelchair is braked down with help of
the handrims.
☞ If needed use suitable gloves in order to
brake down the wheelchair.
