BRAKES
The brakes are one of the most im-
portant safety features of a wheelchair.
The POWER PRIMUS II is fitted as stan-
dard with two independently-operating
braking systems.
1. The motor brake:
An electronic service brake which
brakes the wheelchair gently
without jerking.
2. The safety magnetic brakes:
These are used only when the
wheelchair is stationary. They are
activated by way of the selection
lever for drive/push mode. At the
same time, they guarantee the
automatic braking of the
wheelchair in the event of a power
failure.
The POWER PRIMUS II, Model 2.432
is not fitted with an additional drum bra-
ke for parking.
The electromagnetic brake is swit-
ched from drive to push mode by way
of the brake release lever on the side
of the wheelchair! – Also observe the
signs affixed to the left and right of the
brake release lever.
Note!
Danger of crushing between the drive
wheel and frame.
When the selection lever is set to
drive mode, the electromagnetic bra-
ke takes effect immediately.
– Con-
trolled braking is not possible!
Please observe the Safety Instructions!
BRAKE RELEASE LEVER
Locking the brake
Push the brake release lever (11) for-
ward as far as it will go, (Fig. 3).
Note!
It is impossible to push the wheelchair
when in drive mode.
The
brake performance decreases
when:
– the brake pads are worn.
If the wheelchair demonstrates an un-
even or impaired braking effect, take
it
immediately
to your
specialist
workshop
for repair.
Releasing the brake
Pull the knob on the brake release lever
and pull the brake release lever back
as far as it will go (Fig. 4).
Note!
Do not
get into/out of
the
wheelchair unless it is
is switched off
and the selection lever has been
set to drive mode.
Inadvertently knocking the control le-
ver (16) will set the wheelchair in
motion without control! –
Danger of
accidents!
