Folding the wheelchair
To fold the wheelchair, please follow the following operations:
•
Remove the seat cushion (if supplied). The foot plates should be folded, as per photo 40, 41 and 42 (also see
paragraph 6.7 and 6.8);
•
To fold the wheelchair you have to stand next to it. Get a hold of the seat sling in the middle of the rear and
the front, and pull straight up. To fold the chair completely, tilt the chair sideward (so the wheels cannot drag)
and push the sides towards each other (photo 43 and 44);
•
To make wheelchair even smaller so that it can be easily transported, you can take wheels of the wheelchair
off by the Quick-release system (see section 6.10.1). Picture 45: Shows the function of the quick release
button, you can easily release the rear wheels of the wheelchair (photo 46).
