Driving the MC Concept 1122
MC Concept is a modern device, specially developed to help
you achieve maximum mobility.
Before getting on or off the vehicle, you must check the
following:
• That the wheelchair is switched off.
• That the wheelchair is not disengaged.
• That the wheelchair and the seat you are moving to are both
stable.
• Avoid placing your full body weight on the footrests.
This may tip the wheelchair forwards.
If you are using the MC Concept for the first time, you should try
out all the day-to-day situations you are likely to encounter:
• inclines/declines,
• driving on rough terrain
• driving on sloping terrain.
You should practice these manoeuvres with your therapist or
other carer.
Warning!
The seat should NEVER be hoisted while driving on uneven
surfaces, slopes or up and down kerbs. The higher the seat is
raised, the more unstable the chair becomes.
Arms and legs
While driving, you must place your arms on the armrests and
your feet on the footrests.
Cables and leads
Always make sure that cables and leads from components like
the joystick are fixed using ties.
