SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Failure to follow the safety precautions may result in the risk of serious injury.
Do not exceed the maximum supported weight of 135 Kg.
Make sure that all parts are well fixed and in good working order. Do not use the product on stairs or escalators.
Only use the accessories and parts supplied by the manufacturer.
Check the correct operation of the brakes before use.
This wheelchair has been designed for use inside vehicles of all kinds. Always transfer the wheelchair to the user in a seat
approved by the vehicle manufacturer and use all available safety restraints.
Do not use this wheelchair in roads, streets or other surface traffic.
Be sure to fully activate the wheel brakes when getting out of the wheelchair, or when you are in a lift or wheelchair lift. The
wheelchair must be on a flat, stable and level surface.
When getting in or out of the wheelchair, do not climb or put any weight on your foot. When you try to extend your arms
over your back, do so only until your arm can be extended without changing your sitting position.
Do not stand in the wheelchair
If you have to lean or lean on the chair, make sure that the front wheels are pointing forward, so that the base of the wheel
extends to stabilise the chair.
Seek professional advice when going up or down slopes of more than 10 cm. If you have to stop on a slope, avoid abrupt and
rapid movements when moving. Movement can cause instability due to the angle of the chair. The use of brakes can lead to
accidental braking, uncontrolled movement or sudden blockage. Try not to change direction on a ramp, as this may cause
instability and cause the chair to tip over.
During use, lock the brakes for all actions.
All wheels must always be in contact with the ground.
When the product is in a stationary position, the brakes must be locked. Do not attempt to move the product if the brakes
are locked.
Make sure that the footrests are properly engaged.
Make sure the removal pin is securely engaged in the rear wheels and frame of the chair.
Be careful when climbing pavements or walking on sloping, uneven or slippery surfaces. Failure to do so may result in a signif-
icant risk of falling or injury.
Do not use the product on a wet, icy or snowy slope. Beware or the risk of pinching during use.
If any parts are damaged, broken, worn, or missing, contact the dealer.
MOUNTING
SEAT HEIGHT
In this chair, the seat height is adjusted with the rear wheel support bracket where the axle is located. Once the seat height is
adjusted at the rear, adjust the front part correctly so that the seat is not tilted forward or too far back.
Change the fork or change the position of the front wheel by choosing another hole in the fork. The purpose of adjusting the
seat height is to maximise the user's efficiency by adapting the seat to the environment according to the user's physical and
mechanical needs.
ADJUSTING FOOTRESTS ADJUSTMENT
The Footrests are folding inward for easy transfer. The footrest of the footrest is adjustable in degrees of inclination.
Note: To remove the footrest, squeeze the trigger toward the chair, rotate the footrests outward or inward and raise them. To
install the footrests, place the plastic swivel on the tubing in front of the seat, turn the footrests inward, until you grasp the
locking bolt.
FIXING SYSTEM-ADJUSTING REAR WHEEL
The fixing-adjustment system is the most important adjustment for the wheelchair, because it determines the center of
gravity, the rotation of the chair, the degrees of the wheels and the height of the seat. The center of gravity is determined by
the user's position on the chair. You can change its Handle Attendant brake vertical coordinate by changing the height of the
seat, but the higher the seat, the more unstable the seat.
The position of the rear axle with respect to the horizontal coordinate of the center of gravity determines the ease of propulsion
and handling of the chair, but also the subsequent stability.
ARMRESTS
To allow easy access from each side of the chair, the armrests are folded down. Check that they are locked when they are
replaced.
