2.2 Carrying the electric wheelchair
The best way to carry the electric wheelchair is to make use of free-wheel mode of the
electric wheelchair. Place the wheelchair in free-wheel mode and roll the wheelchair with the
handgrips to the desired place.
When the wheelchair must be taken up or down stairs, do this with the wheelchair ramps or
lift systems. At least two persons are required to move the wheelchair up or down stairs or
over single steps.
Another way to carry the electric wheelchair is to dismantle the electric wheelchair. Carry the
separate parts (frame, armrests, footrests, battery housing, seat, backrest) to the desired
place. Grasp the wheelchair only on fixed frame parts (never by the footrests, armrests and
wheels).
2.3 Assembly and disassembly of the electric wheelchair
The electric wheelchair is delivered fully assembled. Your dealer delivers the wheelchair fully
assembled and explains the various operating elements and their use. However, for your
own safety we provide a further, detailed explanation of the different parts.
