DANGER!
• When using the lifting ramp make sure that the anti-tip
tubes fitted are positioned outside the danger area.
• Secure your wheelchair on uneven ground or when
transferring, e.g. into a car, by using the brakes.
• If and whenever possible, during a journey in a specially
fitted vehicle for disabled people, vehicle occupants
should use the seats in the vehicle and the appropriate
restraint system. This is the only way to ensure that
occupants will have the maximum protection if there is an
accident.
• Depending on the diameter and setting of the castors, as
well as the centre of gravity setting of the wheelchair, the
castors may begin to wobble at high speeds. This can
lead to castor seizure and the wheelchair may tip over.
Therefore, please make sure that the castors are adjusted
correctly (see the Chapter "Castors").
• In particular, do not travel on an incline without brakes,
travel at a reduced speed. We recommend that novice
users use anti-tip tubes.
• Anti-tip tubes should prevent the chair tipping over
backwards unintentionally. Under no circumstances
should they take the place of transit wheels, and be used
to transport a person in a wheelchair with the rear wheels
removed.
• When reaching for objects (which are in front of, to the
side or behind the wheelchair) make sure that you do not
lean too far out of the wheelchair, as if you change the
centre of gravity there is a risk of tipping or rolling over.
The hanging of additional load (back pack or similar
items) onto your chair back posts can affect the rearward
stability of your chair, especially when used in
combination with recliner backrests. This can cause the
chair to tip backwards causing injury.
• For thigh amputees you must use anti-tip tubes.
• Before setting off, check that your tyre pressure is correct.
For rear wheels it should be at least 3.5 bar ( 350 kPa).
The max. pressure is indicated on the tyre.The knee-lever
brakes will only work if there is sufficient tyre pressure
and if the correct setting has been made (see the Chapter
on "Brakes").
• If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must replace
them immediately.
• Be careful with fire, in particular with burning cigarettes.
Seat and back slings can be set alight.
• If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight / cold
temperature for a long period of time, then parts of the
wheelchair (e.g. frame, legrests, brakes and side guard)
may become hot (>41°C) / very cold (<0°).
• Always make sure that, if fitted, the quick-release axles
on the rear wheels are set properly and lock in (locking
ball bearings are showing completely through the axle
sleeve). If the button on the quick-release axle is not
pressed in, the rear wheel cannot be removed.
CAUTION !
• The effect of the knee-lever brake as well as the general
driving characteristics are dependant on tyre pressure.
The wheelchair is significantly lighter and easier to
manoeuvre when the rear wheels are pumped up
correctly and both wheels have the same pressure.
• Make sure that your tyres have sufficient tread!
• Please note that you are subject to any and all traffic
laws when driving in public traffic.
• Always be careful when handling or adjusting the
wheelchair!
• Adjustments which require tools should always be done
by authorized dealers.
• Clean the wheelchair regularly to avoid rust and salt
corrosion.
• Check the rivets, nuts and bolts to make sure they are
tight and that no wheelchair parts will come loose.
CAUTION !
• With all moving parts there is a natural risk of finger
traps. Please handle with care.
