ATTENDANT BRAKES
The levers of the brakes are located under the hand grip on the right
and left side and are connected with united brake by cable.
•
In order to apply emergency braking or stopping lock, squeeze the
lever of the brake, and in order to release the brake, drop the
levers. Perform this activity smoothly and with appropriate force.
Note!
These brakes should not be used to slow down the wheelchair. If
they are often used for this purpose, they may cause tyre abrasion
which will not be covered by guarantee terms.

openings and tighten the locking knob.
PUMPING THE WHEELS

The wheelchair was equipped with pneumatic rear wheels 24’’ in
diameter and swivel, PU front wheels 8’’ in diameter (tubeless
tyre). Remember to control the air pressure in both wheels and
check the condition of the tyres in search of abrasion, cuts or
surface depletion.

To balance the air pressure in the wheels, twist off the cap of the
valve, insert the pump (included in the set) into the valve, and
pump the air.
