Fig.13.6.
hold the therapeutic seat with backrest only by the solid
elements of the therapeutic seat with backrest (see
Fig.13.6).
13.7. For safety reasons, do not lift the whole rehab
buggy, i.e. the therapeutic seat with backrest, assembled
to the rehab buggy frame and assembled with additional
equipment, as it may damage your health.
13.8. Do not lift the rehab buggy by its footrest or safety
barrier, therapeutic table, or any other accessory, as this
could damage the product and endanger the safety of
others from the environment.
14. Getting in and out of the rehab buggy
14.1. When getting in and out of the rehab buggy, place the rehab buggy as close as possible to a stable and safe place
to which the user will be changing their position. Once you are sure that the central brake is active and the footplate is
lifted up to avoid standing on it, the user can change their position.
15. Correct position in the rehab buggy
15.1. For safety and health reasons, it is recommended that the user places the hips and back as close to the backrest
as possible for even support of the spine (optimum support for all parts of the spine so that no free space is created).
15.2. The thighs should have support on the largest area possible, at their full length, this is enabled adjustment of
seat depth of the rehab buggy (see 8.29 Seat depth adjustment).
16. Driving the rehab buggy
16.1. During use, always hold the pushing handle to prevent the rehab buggy from coasting.
16.2. Release the central brake while holding the pushing handle and push the rehab buggy in a safe direction.
16.3. Depending on the setting, the therapeutic seat with backrest can be set with its front or rear to the direction of
movement (see 8.26. Seat assembly).
17. Moving on sloping surfaces
17.1. When moving on inclinations or ramps, always place the rehab buggy in a frontal position to the direction of
travel.
17.2. Reduce speed on sloping surfaces and move as slowly as possible.
17.3. The assistant pushing the rehab buggy (parent, guardian) must have appropriate strength to control the stability
of the rehab buggy.
18. Overcoming thresholds or curbs
18.1. When crossing small obstacles (small thresholds, small curbs, etc.), press the tilting foot and the rehab buggy
pushing handle both down toward the ground to lift the front wheels of the rehab buggy and carefully drive on to the
obstacle with the front wheels. Then slowly pull the pushing handle up, away from the ground to lift the rear wheels
of the rehab buggy and carefully drive the rear wheels on the obstacle.
