Intended Use & Parts - Karman S-Ergo 300G Owner's Manual

3. INTENDED USE & PARTS
3.1 Intended Use
The S-Ergo 300 series is a self-propelled chair. That is, it can either be pushed
by an attendant or by the patients themselves.
These wheelchairs are suitable for users up to 115kg in weight. Hand brakes
are provided for both rear wheels.
It has pneumatic tires for traction and comfort. It also has an extremely durable
aluminum alloy frame with tough accessories and does not suffer in dramatic
extremes of temperature (neither user nor attendant need touch metal parts in
normal use).
The casters have PU tires for greater durability; pneumatic casters are available
on request.
Rear wheels are 24 inches in diameter and solid PU tires are available on
request.
When prescribing wheelchairs for use by full or partial amputees (above or below
knee, single or double) or other conditions that affects the users natural center of
gravity, we suggest contacting your therapist or dealer as well as attaching
anti-tippers.
The S-Ergo system provides pressure relief, stabilization and reduced sliding.
The S-shaped back can be adjusted so as to make the user more comfortable.
(For S-Ergo 300G)
The plastic modular parts of this model reduce weight and are easy to maintain.
