Safety instructions
Lean or push your body in the direction of the top
n
of the slope. This will shift the centre of gravity of
the wheelchair to a better position and will reduce
the risk of the chair tipping over backwards.
Do not push the wheelchair up slopes while the
n
seat is tilted.
n The person pushing the wheelchair must continue
to push the chair to prevent it from starting to
move under its own momentum.
Do not turn the wheelchair round on a steep
n
slope.
n If the wheelchair is facing across a steep slope, it
can very easily tip over.
Always keep your speed under control when going
n
downhill.
The accompanying person must reduce the speed
n
of the wheelchair via the push-handles.
n If you are operating the wheelchair yourself, only
slow the wheelchair down by hand, not by using
the brake, as this can cause you to lose control of
the wheelchair.
