Brakes
The MC Concept is equipped with two sets of brakes: The
motor brake and the parking brake.
Motor braking:
When you drive downhill, the control unit of the MC Concept
applies the motor brake.
Parking brake:
When the vehicle is stationary and the joystick is not moved, a
magnetic brake is automatically applied to each drive unit. For
driving, the magnetic brake is released fi rst, after which the MC
Concept can be driven as described above.
Note!
You must NEVER brake the MC Concept by switching off with
the I/O button while moving, as this applies the magnetic brake
with considerable force, with a resulting risk of tipping.
Disengagement:
The MC Concept is equipped with two disengagement levers:
One on each side of the vehicle.
ALWAYS disengage on both sides.
Warning!
When the powered wheelchair is disengaged, the braking system is
deactivated.
You must NEVER disengage on sloping terrain. This can lead to
serious damage or personal injury.
Normal position for driving -
pushed in.
Position for disengagement -
pushed out.
