5.7.3. Operating the parking brake
with the brake lever extension
The procedure for operating the parking brake with the brake lever
extension is the same as operating the parking brake (see Chapter
4.7.1).
Folding the brake lever extension in
16.
• The brake lever can be folded in when driving or transferring to the
side.
• Pull the plastic grip out of the lever (Fig. 16).
• Fold the plastic grip down (Fig. 17).
• Before setting off, the brake must returned to its operational
position by following the procedure in reverse order.
Never use the brake lever as a support - e.g. when
transferring or standing up -, otherwise there is a

risk of tipping over and falling! The lever could
break off!

5.8. One-hand brake (optional)

Using the one-hand brake, you have a parking brake which you can
use to brake both drive wheels using a brake lever.

The parking brake - with or without brake lever
extension - only works on one drive wheel and
must therefore always be used on both sides!

5.8.1. Drum brake (optional)

As an option, the wheelchair can be fitted with a drum brake which can
only be operated by an attendant using the brake lever on the push
handles (Fig. 18).
Adjusting the drum brake
Basic setup for the drum brake is carried out on the cable clamping
screw. Fine adjustment is carried out using the adjusting nut on the
brake cable. Unscrewing the adjustment nut will increase the braking
effect (Fig. 19).
• Drum brakes only work on one drive wheel at a time!
• Drum brakes are also subject to natural wear. If the braking effect
decreases, the wheelchair must no longer be used. In order to avoid
this happening, for your own safety you should check that the
brakes are working properly each time before setting off!
• Once you have finished the adjustment, re-tighten all screws and
carry out a brake test!
Adjusting the brakes must only be carried out by
trained personnel. Please bear in mind that if
the brakes are set incorrectly this can have life-
threatening consequences.
