Using a lift:
Before transfer to chair:
• Tilt the chair back
• Remove the head support
• Remove the leg supports
• Open the back rest angle slightly
• Replace the components when
transfer is finished.
Never stand on the foot plates due to
the risk of tipping the chair forwards
.
9.8 POINT OF BALANCE
adjust the point of balance by changing
the position of the main wheel in the main
wheel bracket.
• Move the main wheel hub and the
main wheel. (Chapt. 6.6)
• Adjust the brakes. (Chapt. 6.17)
2 pcs 24 mm open-end spanner
5 mm Allen key
When the main wheels are moved
forward, it will be easier to manoeuvre
the wheelchair, but the risk of tipping
backwards increases.
The point of balance can also be
changed by adjusting the seat angle
and/or angle of backrest.
It is recommended to use the anti tip.
Check that the main wheel and quick
release are locked properly. (Chapt 6.2)
9.9 LIFTING THE WHEELCHAIR
• The unfolded wheelchair should be lifted
from 2 persons holding on to the frame and
push bar only.
it is marked with the below symbol where
it should be lifted.
Never lift the wheelchair in the leg-, arm-
or head supports. They may detach and
the wheelchair may fall and get
damaged.
Never lift the wheelchair with a user
in it.
9.10 PUSH RIM
Netti wheelchairs are delivered with
aluminium push rims as standard. the
material and distance to the main wheel
influences the ability of the user to grip.
Contact your dealer to get information about
push rims that fit your chair.
Alternative push rims may give better
grip, but the friction may increase.
When using the hands to stop the
chair, the risk for burning of the hands
increases.
A squeezing and trapping hazard of the
fingers may occur when passing through
narrow passages and if the fingers come
between the spokes. To avoid this risk,
we recommend spoke protectors as
accessory.
If you want/need to change push rims or
increase/decrease the distance between
the push rims and the wheel, please
contact your dealer
