6.12.3 Performing a function check of the wheel lock settings
During the functional test of the wheel lock settings, please observe the following points and
complete the tasks described below:
Steps:
1. Lock the release lever in position 1 (driving mode).
2. While driving straight ahead at approximately 6 km/h, release the joystick in its front-most
position.
3. If the wheelchair maintains its current direction during the delay, repeat the test on a slope
of 10 % unless this is limited by information on the nameplate.
4. If the wheelchair leaves the current direction, adjust the Bowden cable for the opposite side.
The adjustment process is described in Section 6.12.2a under “Adjusting an over-tightened
Bowden cable”.
5. If the wheelchair tracks properly in both cases, conduct the following test on an even surface:
a. Pull the release bolt on the brake housing. The lever automatically moves forward into
position 2. You should not be able to push the wheelchair with the lever in this position.
If the drive wheels do not lock, loosen the Bowden cable for the side with the wheel that
still rotates by ½ turn (see Section 6.12.2a “Adjusting an over-tightened Bowden cable”).
b. Turn the lever to position 3 (push mode). The wheelchair can be pushed easily, even
when turning. If the wheelchair pulls to one side, tighten the Bowden cable on the corre-
sponding side. The adjustment process is described in Section 6.12.2b under “Adjusting
a slack Bowden cable”.
6. If no deviations are found during the tests described above, no readjustment is necessary.
