Flat tyre

If a fl at tyre occurs to the air fi lled 
tyres due to puncture by sharp objects 
such as nails, screws, glass splinters, 
etc. the damage should be eliminated 
by repairing (mending the inner tube) 
or replacing the inner tube.

!

 Attention:

 

Sitting in the wheelchair during a 
wheel change is not permitted. The 
wheelchair must stand on a level 
and fi rm surface. Before starting 
the disassembly work, support the 
frame to prevent the wheelchair 
from tipping over and secure it to 
prevent an unwanted movement 
or tipping over.

Changing the tyres

  

Note:

 

Always change tyres in pairs. – Dif-
ferently worn tyres can impair the 
straight-on travel of the wheel-
chair.

!

 Attention:

 

Before tyre repair, open the pneu-
matic valve and vent any remaining 
compressed air in the inner tube.

  

Note:

  The air pressure for the tyres is 

shown on both sides of the tyre 
and in the <

tion.

 Attention:

 

Ensure that the tyre cover is always 
removed and reinstalled with the

vers!

Replacement of the steering 
wheels

Before replacement or repair the 
steering wheel axle (1) is to be disas-
sembled.

 Note:

 Always replace the steering wheels 

in pairs.
