CAUTION
Incorrect centre of gravity setting
Falling of the user due to extreme settings
►
Check the standard adjustments of the rehab buggy for stability against tipping and the ergonomically correct
sitting position of the user. Avoid any extreme settings.
CAUTION
Changed centre of gravity after operating the seat tilt
Tipping over, falling out of the user due to adjustment error
►
Check the tip resistance each time after changing the seat tilt, especially in combination with a back support
angle setting. To do so, hold the product with both hands by the push handle/push bar.
CAUTION
Change in centre of gravity following back angle adjustment
Falling over, falling out of the user due to adjustment errors
►
After each modification of the back angle, check the tilt stability. To do so, hold the product with both hands
by the push handle/push bar.
CAUTION
Risky operation
Falling, tipping over backwards due to approaching obstacles incorrectly
►
Push slowly when crossing obstacles (e.g. steps, curbs) and negotiating uphill or downhill slopes and
inclines.
►
Never cross obstacles at an angle. Always approach obstacles head on (at an angle of 90°).
►
Raise the front wheels before crossing obstacles.
►
Avoid collisions with obstacles and dropping off curbs/ledges.
►
Avoid riding cross-country.
Hazards when overcoming obstacles
WARNING
Overcoming steps and obstacles without assistance
Tipping over, falling of the user due to failure to observe transportation instructions
►
Always have accompanying persons help you negotiate steps and other obstacles.
►
Use available facilities (e.g. access ramps or lifts).
CAUTION
Improper lifting by attendants
Tipping over, falling of the user due to lifting by removable components
►
Attendants may lift the buggy only by welded or permanently attached components (e.g. front frame tube
above the front wheels, rear axle).
►
It is particularly dangerous to lift the buggy by the unfixed push handle/push bar.
