Using the Stepper Tube
Use the stepper tube to raise the front castors
(when mounting a low kerb for example). To
use, push down on the stepper tube with your
foot. DO NOT raise the front castors by pushing
down on the push handles as this could tip the
wheelchair.
To mount a low kerb.
Approach the low kerb
head on. Then the assistant uses the stepper
tube to raise the front castors, and lowers the
front castors on the raised kerb. Finally the
assistant should push the wheelchair forward,
lifting it up slightly to mount the kerb if required.
WARNING
After any adjustments, and before use, make sure all attaching hardware is
tightened securely. Otherwise, injury or damage may result.
As with any vehicle, the wheels and tyres should be checked periodically for
cracks and wear, and should be replaced when necessary.
To go down a low kerb.
Line up the front castors with the edge of the low kerb.
The assistant uses the stepper tube to raise the front castors and tip the users
back slightly. Keeping the castors raised slowly move the wheelchair forward and
slowly lower it down the low kerb.
Warning:
When going down a low kerb, the front castors must be raised to
prevent the user from falling forward. The above are only recommendations and
may not be suitable for all events.
