Safety instructions
ParaGolfer
CAUTION
Risk of accidents and injury due to rolling.
A released
brake may result in uncontrolled rolling of the sports
wheelchair. Therefore, ensure that the brake is engaged
after parking the sports wheelchair.
CAUTION
Risk of accidents due to bad tyres.
Visually inspect the
tyres for sufficient tread depth and correct tyre pressure
before each use.
Whenever possible, avoid parking the wheelchair out-
doors and in direct sunlight (UV light), as it causes the
tyres to age prematurely. As a result, the tread surface
hardens and corner pieces break out of the tread.
Ottobock recommends to replace the tyres every 2 years
regardless of wear and tear.
When the wheelchair is not used for extended periods of
time or if the tyres are heated strongly (e. g. near radiators
or by sunlight shining through a window), permanent de-
formation of the tyres will result. Therefore always make
sure that the wheelchair has sufficient distance from
sources of heat, move your wheelchair from time to time or
jack up the wheelchair when storing it.
NOTICE
Risk of damage due to improper use of the stand-up
function.
The power wheelchair is equipped with a stand-
up device. The following particularities must be observed
during operation:
The seat function actuators are not intended for
continuous use, but only for short-term limited opera-
tion (10 % use, 90 % idle time). General recommenda-
tion: At maximum load, 10 seconds of operation should
be followed by 90 seconds of idle time. In this regard,
the electric seat functions are considered independ-
ently of the driving function.
The seat with stand-up device may be subjected to a
maximum load of 140 kg / 308 Ibs.
The stand-up device may not be operated in case of
errors or malfunctions.
If creep speed is not activated when the stand-up de-
vice is operated, please visit a specialist dealer imme-
diately. The power wheelchair may only be used with
the stand-up device in its lowest position until the fault
is repaired.
