Safety Summary Continued
•
Always make sure that the quick-release axles on the rear
wheels are set properly and are locked in place. If the
button on the quick-release axle is not pressed in, the rear
wheel cannot be removed.
•
In particular when using lightweight metal hand rims,
fingers will easily become hot when braking from a high
speed or on long inclines.
•
If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight for a long
period of time, then parts of the wheelchair (e.g. frame,
leg rests, brakes and side guards) may become hot
(>41°C).
•
To avoid hand injuries do not grab in between the spokes
or between the rear wheel and wheel lock when driving
the wheelchair.
•
Do not use the wheelchair on slopes > 5°.
•
The dynamic safe slope is dependent on the chair
configuration, the user's abilities and the style of riding.
As the user's abilities and style of riding cannot be
pre-determined then the max safe slope cannot be
determined. Therefore, this must be determined by
the user with the assistance of an attendant to prevent
tipping. It is strongly recommended that inexperienced
users have anti-tips fitted.
•
Do not use your wheelchair on muddy or icy ground.
•
Do not use your wheelchair where pedestrians are not
allowed.
•
The wheelchair should be used with caution in heavy rain,
snow, slippery, or unsound surfaces.
•
Do not use the wheelchair in hazardous environments.
