3.11.2 Drum brake (optional)
The drum brake is, unlike to the locking brake,
also suitable for braking while driving.
The adjustment of the drum brake is to be
carried out through a set screw (A) at the lower
end of the brake cable. The brake is readjusted
by turning the set screw counter-clockwise.
In the second lock-in-position of the hand brake
lever (B), the brake must be so tight that the
rear wheels of the wheelchair with passenger
will not slip on a ramp with 6% incline (cf.
above).
To lock firmly, the latch lever (C) has to snap
into the brake lever (B). To unlock, please
pull the brake lever further which will release
the latch lever automatically.

ATTENTION
The brake shoes of the drum brake react
very sensitively to dirt, fluff, etc. Please clean
the brake regularly with a dry brush. When
removing and inserting the wheels with the
quick-release-axle, make sure not to damage
the brake as this would be a considerable
safety risk!
