4 Adjusting and adaptation possibilities
4.1 Wheel lock (knee lever wheel locks, mounted on the frame)
• Press the brake lever below to lock the wheel lock (23).
CAUTION!
All brakes acting on the tires do not serve as a slow down
brake but are only designed as a parking brake (wheel
lock). The wheel locks must not be used as driving brakes
for slowing down the wheelchair, as in extreme cases, the
abrupt stopping of the wheelchair can lead to falls.
The brake shoe presses on the tires and grips it tightly. The brake
shoe is, therefore, at a 90° angle to its holder (24).
CAUTION!
The effectiveness of the wheel lock are dependent
on adequate air pressure. Before starting to use your
wheelchair, check that the tires are inflated correctly.
The required air pressure is printed on the side of the
tires. For rear wheels, it should be at least 6 bar.
• To release the wheel lock pull the brake lever upwards (25).
When the brakes are released the brake shoe should be 10 mm from
the wheel (25
A
).
This distance can be adjusted by the adjustment screw (25
B
).
The wheel locks should only be adjusted by a technician.
