IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
♦
ALWAYS DEPLOY THE ANTI-TIPPER AND THE BRAKES WHEN
PARKED AND BEFORE TRANSFERRING IN OR OUT OF THE BUGGY.
The Delta buggy is designed to be easy to tip backwards for improved
manoeuvrability and easier handling. NB. THE ANTI-TIPPER WILL NOT
BE AS EFFECTIVE ON SOFT GROUND LIKE SAND.
♦
DO NOT HANG ANY LUGGAGE ON THE HANDLE OR BACKREST
FRAME. This can cause the buggy to tip backwards.
♦
WHEN ASSEMBLING THE BUGGY CHECK THAT QUICK RELEASE
WHEELS ARE SECURELY ATTACHED.
♦
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE; PAY PARTICULAR
ATTENTION TO ITEMS WITH THE WARNING TRIANGLE.
♦
ALWAYS HOLD ON TO THE BUGGY IN USE. TAKE EXTRA CARE
ON INCLINES. A wrist strap is provided for extra security.
♦
ALWAYS USE THE LAP BELT TO KEEP THE OCCUPANT SAFE. The
shoulder and groin straps of the harness can be removed if not required.
♦
WHEN OPERATING THE PARK BRAKES CHECK THAT THEY ARE
WORKING EFFECTIVELY AND DEPLOY THE ANTI-TIPPER BEFORE
RELEASING THE BUGGY.
RISK OF FIRE DUE TO POTENTIAL FLAMMABILITY OF
UPHOLSTERED COMPONENTS. KEEP AWAY FROM NAKED FLAMES
AND REFRAIN FROM SMOKING.
♦
Do not allow the occupant to climb into the buggy unassisted.
♦
Attempting to negotiate steps and stairs is dangerous, be sure that you
and your helper can support the weight of the buggy and occupant. Do not
attempt more than a short run of steps without at least two carers.
♦
The handle mounting is flexible to reduce hand/wrist fatigue. Do not lift
the buggy by the handle when occupied; use the frame or section of tube
between the handle adjusters and frame.
