2.6 Transportation

For storage or transportation purposes,
the wheelchair can be dismantled into
portable elements without the need for
tools.
Firstly the dimensions of the wheelchair
can be reduced by removing all remov-
able parts. These include the leg sup-
ports and the armrests (arm pads are
not removable). Stabilisers (if present)
can be folded forwards.
The wheelchair can now be folded in
the normal way. In addition, driving
wheels equipped with full floating axles
can now also be removed.
During reassembly, ensure that each
part is correctly installed and securely
fastened. Check that components are
correctly positioned. Check the correct
seating of the components.
