6.6 Releasing and locking the brake
WARNING
Risk of death due to brake malfunction.
Incorrect brake
settings can lead to brake failure, and therefore to serious
bodily injuries and even death. Repairs and adjustments
to the brake may only be carried out by authorised spe-
cialist staff.
WARNING
Risk of accidents and injury due to lack of brake func-
tionality.
No brake functionality is available when the brake is un-
locked (push mode).
When moving the power wheelchair on an incline, the per-
son pushing must provide the appropriate brake force.
The brake function may only be released in the pres-
ence of an attendant.
Should the user be unable to release the brake himself,
the brake can be released by the attendant.
NOTICE
Risk of damage when parking the wheelchair with the
brake deactivated.
Releasing the brake may result in
uncontrolled rolling of the sports wheelchair. Therefore,
ensure that the brake is engaged after parking the sports
wheelchair.
It is possible to push the sports wheelchair in case of control
unit failure or insufficient battery charge level. To do so, the
brake is released by mechanically unlocking it. The brake
release mechanism is located on the right between the
frame and seat.
