Downhill
Moving downhill, it is important to control the direction of movement and, above all, the speed.
1. Lean against the backrest and carefully let the handrims slide through your hands. You must always be able to
stop the wheelchair using the handrims.
WARNING!
Danger of burns
The handrims can warm up, if you brake the wheelchair for a long period of time.
You could burn the palm of your hands.
Wear an appropriate pair of gloves.
