environmental conditions, such as sun-
light, extreme cold or salty water.
–
Sand and other dirt particles can seize
on moving parts and render them with-
out function.
–
Use only the handrims on the drive
wheels to propel your wheelchair.
You must not let yourself be carried in your
wheelchair by having the wheelchair lifted
from the floor. Parts that are not securely
fixed, e.g. side elements or leg supports, can
come away and thus cause an accident.
☞ The wheelchair is a vehicle and not a
carrying device.
Only apply the wheelchair within the
scope of the specifications and limitation
described in chapter Technical data on
page 45.
WHEELCHAIR FOLDING/
UNFOLDING/CARRYING
You wheelchair can be folded without the
aid of tools.
1.
Remove the seat cushion, if applicable.
2. Lift up the footplates or remove the leg
supports.
3.
Pull the seat belt upward in the centre
of the front and back.
4. If necessary remove the connection
rod of the double handrim drive or the
push bar.
Your wheelchair can be carried without dif-
ficulty when folded.
For this, push one lower arm from the front
under the upward folded seat belt. Place
other hand underneath the rear seat fold for
support.
Lift the wheelchair to horizontal position.
Tip the wheelchair slightly to one side in
order to make the unfolding easier. At the
side resting on the floor, press the seat tube
down to the end stop.
☞ You may need to press down both seat
tubes with the hands in order to do this.
☞ Ensure that the seat tube sits securely
on the support surface.
ADJUSTMENT
Always have adaptation, adjustment or re-
pair work carried out by a specialist dealer.
The wheelchair offers manifold adjustment
possibilities to individual vital statistics. Be-
fore first use an adaptation of the wheel-
chair and a practical instruction in the
functionalities of your wheelchair should
be carried out by your specialist dealer. The
adaptation will take into account the driving
experience, the physical limits of the user
and the main place of use of the wheelchair.
Before first use, check the functionality of
your wheelchair.
☞ We recommend a regular control if
the wheelchair adjustment in order to
ensure a long-term optimal provision
even with changing illness/handicap
patterns of the user. Especially for juve-
niles an adjustment every 6 months is
recommendable.
