PYRO LIGHT OPTIMA

To get over obstacles more easily, the assisting person must position 
the wheelchair at the correct angle to the obstacle by pressing on the 
tip assist.

Before getting in or out, the parking brake should get locked. Use 
outside of the home should only be undertaken with sufficient 
experience. When possible, somebody should accompany you.

The static stability of the basic model is 7° (ca. 8 %). The critical 
obstacle height at the basic model in unfavourable situations is 23 
mm (maximum centre of gravity shift)

The critical obstacle height is the height in which the centre of gravity 
(with the user) is right vertical over the obstacle rim. If the user tries to 
put the wheelchair with the help of the driving wheels on the obstacle 
without having shifted the centre of gravity forwardly, the wheelchair 
will tip over backwardly.

According to STVZO 66/1 (German Road Traffic Act) of 01.01.1981, 
hand propelled wheelchairs require permanently attached lighting to 
participate in public road traffic (including on footpaths).
This consists of (passive):

• 

two red reflectors to the rear

• 

two amber reflectors on both sides.

If the wheelchair is used after dark, the following are necessary in 
addition (active):

• 

one white light forwards

• 

one red light backwards.

These lights must work from an electrical circuit independent of the 
movement (batteries) power.
