10 Commissioning and handover
The product will be handed over to you ready
for use by a rehabilitation specialist dealer or a
field representative or by a product consultant
from PRO ACTIV. They will fit, if not already
done, the required fastening elements to your
wheelchair to hold the adapter and, if required,
any other accessories. The height of the park-
ing stand is also adjusted correctly.
Finally, you will be fully instructed in the use of
the product based on the usage instructions
included in delivery. You will be handed over a
record of training and handover certificate as
written proof. In addition, you will be handed
the usage instructions and, if necessary, fur-
ther accessories for your own use. It is rec-
ommended that you take along an assistant to
the training so that, if required, they can assist
you later when handling the product.
During the hand-over, the record of training
(chapter 30) and the hand-over certificate in-
cluding the associated check list (chapter 31)
must be filled in. The rehabilitation specialist
dealer should send the completed documents
to PRO ACTIV for filing as a file by e-mail or in
the form of a copy by fax or in the post.
11 Introduction to the product and
the surroundings
During the initial commissioning of the product,
drive at minimum speed and become accus-
tomed to the driving characteristics of the
product. Always adapt the speed and driving
manoeuvres to match your own abilities, the
external circumstances and the legal regula-
tions. You will get a feel for how to use the
product safely after a short time. Before driving
up or down slopes or hills with the product, you
should be proficient in the safe handling of the
product on level ground. Get familiar with the
braking distance at different speeds.
Get to know the environment in which you wish
to use the product. Look out for obstacles and
learn how to overcome or avoid them.
Get familiar with the road traffic regulations,
since these must be observed when driving on
public roads.
12 Safety instructions – prior to
driving/use
If your wheelchair is operated in combina-
tion with the product, any existing anti-tipping
supports must be put into their passive position
or removed (see the wheelchair's usage in-
structions). If the wheelchair is then used with-
out the product, the anti-tipping supports must
be brought back into their operating position
again to ensure tipping stability.
