Besides the functions provided by manual brakes, the optional hub brakes provide slow down (for example, on a
slope) and improve safety because they are still efficient when you have a flat tyre!
To slow down gradually pull the lever upwards. To lock the brake in parking position, with the lever tightened,
push the lock to engage it in the notches of the brake handle;then pull the lock up to unlock. To adjust braking:turn
the screw counterclockwise to increase braking force and turn clockwise to reduce it.
The specific adjustments of hub brakes must always be performed by your Dealer.
Always operate the two brakes simultaneously and do not take slopes exceeding 5% to ensure
perfect control of the wheelchair steering!
