disassembly and storage
The Travel Chair can folded and the leg rests removed for storage. The
chair also comes with a sturdy carry bag. Before folding the wheelchair,
either remove the leg rests or flip up the plastic footplates. Then holding the
centre of the front and rear edge of the seat sling, pull upwards and the
wheelchair will fold. Fold the back if required.
We recommend that the wheelchair is carried by the two lift up straps.
Please note though that the wheelchair may be too heavy for some users to
lift. Also be sure to adopt the latest health and safety recommendations
when lifting the wheelchair.
IMPORTANT: The wheelchair has not been tested as a seat in a motor
vehicle. Users should always transfer to the vehicle’s seat and the
wheelchair should be safely stowed away.
using the stepper tube
Use the stepper tube to raise the front castors (when mounting a kerb for
example). To use, push down on the stepper tube with a foot. Do not raise the
front castors by pushing down on the push handles as this could result in
damage to the wheelchair.
To mount a kerb. Approach the kerb head on. Then the attendant uses the
stepper tube to raise the front castors, and lowers the front castors on the
raised kerb. Finally the attendant should push the wheelchair forward, lifting it
up slightly to mount the kerb if required.
To go down a kerb. Line up the front castors with the edge of the kerb. The
attendant uses the stepper tube to raise the front castors and tip the user
slightly back. Keeping the castors raised, slowly lower the wheelchair down
the kerb.
