4.4.1 Parking brakes
The parking brakes are used to immobilize the wheelchair
when it is stationary to prevent it from rolling away.
WARNING!
Risk of overturning if you brake sharply
If you apply the parking brakes while you are
moving, the direction of movement can become
uncontrollable and the wheelchair may stop
suddenly, which can lead to a collision or to you
falling out.
– Never apply the parking brakes while you are
moving.
WARNING!
Risk due to wheelchair being out of control
– The parking brakes must be operated
simultaneously.
– Do not apply the parking brakes to slow down
the wheelchair.
– Do not lean on the parking brakes for support
or transfer.
WARNING!
Risk of overturning
The parking brakes will not operate correctly
unless there is sufficient air in the tires.
– Ensure the correct tire pressure, 3.10 Tires,
page 32 .
CAUTION!
Risk of pinching or crushing
There may be a very small gap between the rear
wheel and the parking brake with the risk that
you could trap your fingers.
– Keep your fingers away from movable parts
when using the brake, always keep your hand
on the brake lever.
The distance between the brake shoe and the tire
can be adjusted. The adjustment must be carried
out by an authorized dealer.
