Transport of the wheelchair

Your Excel G-Explorer is designed to be easily transported by car. Your wheelchair is foldable so the total width is 

limited to an average width of 30-35 cm. Furthermore your wheelchair is equipped with swing away and detachable 

footrests. As well as the footrests, some other components are removable for transportation. The rear wheels are 

detachable, based on a quick-release system.

Folding the wheelchair

To fold the wheelchair, please follow the following operations:

• 

Before you fold the wheelchair, remove the back and seat cushion;
