3 General description
Comfort is of paramount importance to many people
who make use of a wheelchair. And this is exactly what
this electrical driven wheelchair offers: an unknown
degree of driving comfort. A distinctive feature is the
unique independent suspension system, which absorbs
not only shocks, but also vibrations.

3.2 Configurations
Generally speaking, the wheelchair comprises a chassis
with a seating system on top. This special chassis
makes it possible for the wheelchair to be configured
as front wheel drive (FWD, figure 3) or rear wheel-drive
(RWD, figure 4). The wheelchair is available in different
speeds (6 km/h & 10 km/h).
In addition, the Puma 40 can be supplied with two
different types of tyres (for indoor and outdoor use).
This will have an effect on certain specifications.
Warning!
It is not allowed to change the technical specifications.
Do not make any changes to the electrical circuit.
Modifications to the wheelchair or to any parts thereof
are not permitted.
