danger!
• When using the lifting ramp make sure that the anti-tip tubes
fitted are positioned outside the danger area.
• Secure your wheelchair on uneven ground or when
transferring, e.g. into a car, by using the brakes.
• If and whenever possible, during a journey in a specially
fitted vehicle for disabled people, vehicle occupants should
use the seats in the vehicle and the appropriate restraint
system. This is the only way to ensure that occupants will
have the maximum protection if there is an accident.
• Depending on the diameter and setting of the castors, as well
as the centre of gravity setting of the wheelchair, the castors
may begin to wobble at high speeds. This can lead to castor
seizure and the wheelchair may tip over. Therefore, please
make sure that the castors are adjusted correctly (see the
Chapter "Castors").
• In particular, do not travel on an incline without brakes, travel
at a reduced speed. We recommend that novice users use
anti-tip tubes.
• Anti-tip tubes should prevent the chair tipping over
backwards unintentionally. Under no circumstances should
they take the place of transit wheels, and be used to
transport a person in a wheelchair with the rear wheels
removed.
• When reaching for objects (which are in front of, to the side
or behind the wheelchair) make sure that you do not lean too
far out of the wheelchair, as if you change the centre of
gravity there is a risk of tipping or rolling over. The hanging of
additional load (back pack or similar items) onto your chair
back posts can affect the rearward stability of your chair,
especially when used in combination with recliner backrests.
This can cause the chair to tip backwards causing injury.
• For thigh amputees you must use anti-tip tubes.
• Before setting off, check that your tyre pressure is correct.
For rear wheels it should be at least 3.5 bar ( 350 kPa). The
max. pressure is indicated on the tyre.The knee-lever brakes
will only work if there is sufficient tyre pressure and if the
correct setting has been made (see the Chapter on
"Brakes").
• If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must replace
them immediately.
• Be careful with fire, in particular with burning cigarettes. Seat
and back slings can be set alight.
• If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight / cold
temperature for a long period of time, then parts of the
wheelchair (e.g. frame, legrests, brakes and side guard) may
become hot (>41°C) / very cold (<0°).
• Always make sure that, if fitted, the quick-release axles on
the rear wheels are set properly and lock in (locking ball
bearings are showing completely through the axle sleeve). If
the button on the quick-release axle is not pressed in, the
rear wheel cannot be removed.
caution !
• The effect of the knee-lever brake as well as the general
driving characteristics are dependant on tyre pressure. The
wheelchair is significantly lighter and easier to manoeuvre
when the rear wheels are pumped up correctly and both
wheels have the same pressure.
• Make sure that your tyres have sufficient tread!
• Please note that you are subject to any and all traffic laws
when driving in public traffic.
• Always be careful when handling or adjusting the
wheelchair!
• Adjustments which require tools should always be done by
authorized dealers.
• Clean the wheelchair regularly to avoid rust and salt
corrosion.
• Check the rivets, nuts and bolts to make sure they are tight
and that no wheelchair parts will come loose.
• With all moving parts there is a natural risk of finger traps.
Please handle with care.
• The products shown and described in this manual may not
be exactly the same in every detail as your own model.
However, all instructions are still entirely relevant,
irrespective of detai differences.
• The manufacturer reserves the right to alter without notice
any weights, measurements or other technical data shown in
