Needs
The purpose of an Eloflex power wheelchair is to
compensate for an injury or disability, which is why it is
recommended in
the following circumstances:
• If the user has the inability to walk or very limited ability
to walk, which makes it difficult to move in his / her own
home.
• If there is a need to leave the home to get out or to visit
places that are normally visited in order to carry out everyday
affairs.
• When the user has difficulty getting to, or performing work
or activities because of his / her mobility disabilities.
It is advisable to use Eloflex power wheelchairs both indoors
and outdoors, if it is not possible to use hand-operated
wheelchairs due to mobility problems, but it is still possible to
properly handle power wheelchairs.
Accessories
Chargers and bag with simpler tools are available when
delivered in the storage bag under the seat.
