The braking effect decreases if:
- the wheels are worn out
- there is too little air pressure (if you chose air filled
wheels)
- the wheels are wet
- the brake is not adjusted properly
The handbrake is not a service brake! Do not use it
while driving the wheel chair. Always stop the wheel
chair with the help of the grip screws which are
located on the drive wheels or with the help of the
assistant brake. Make sure that the distance between
the handbrake and the wheels is at least 3 mm. To
adjust the brake simply loosen up the fastening
screw of the brake which is located on the frame and
adjust it to the required distance.
Attention! After the adjustment of the drive wheel,
the brakes must be checked because they might
need an adjustment as well.
Attention! Worn out wheels can cause an impair-
ment of the brakes which is why the braking effect
should be checked on a regular basis.
The clamp (Anti-tilt mechanism)
The clamp can be used to tilt over the wheel chair
from behind through a second person. If the
assistant steps on the clamp the wheel chair can be
easily pushed over the curb.
Side parts and arm rests
The side parts are equipped with a plastic filling
as well as a padded arm rest. The side parts can be
removed if needed (for example to get closer to a
table). To remove the side parts simply push both
unlocking knobs at the same time and pull up the
side part. The mounting takes place in the opposite
order. Please pay attention while mounting that
the unlocking snaps in correctly. Important: Side
parts are not meant for lifting up or carrying the
wheelchair.
The foot rests
The wheel chair is equipped with footrests. These
footrests can be fold away for an easy access and exit.
The footrest can be individually adjusted to the users
needs by pulling out the pins along the steel tube,
moving the footrest into the desired position and
setting them back in place. Please note that there
must be a minimum space of 2,5 cm between the
footrests and the ground.
The foot rests can be turned to the inside and outs-
ide. Place the foot rests to the outside for insertion
then insert them and push them softly to the inside
until the locking snaps in. To remove the foot rests
just push the unlocking knob and turn the foot rests
to the outside. When mounting the foot rests always
make sure that they are snapped into place correctly.
Important: The foot rests are not meant to carry or
lift up the wheel chair with somebody sitting in it.
Wheels and wheel mounting
The light weight wheelchair REHASHOP „Bison 2
Blue“ will be delivered with antibreakdown solid
rubber wheels. Therefore no air pressure check is
needed. Worn out or old wheels should be replaced
by a specialist dealer.
