14.8 Use on slopes: driving on uphill slopes
Driving on uphill slopes must always be performed with great care and
attention. Avoid sudden avoidance maneuvers and never drive at a speed
higher than needed to maneuver the wheelchair in a safe and secure way.
Avoid holes and bumps as much as possible. Drive slowly and controlled.
Max. acceptable uphill slope
The position of the seat in height and angle or the position of the backrest
has great influence on the stability of the wheelchair when driving on slopes.
Make sure the seat is in the optimal driving position to avoid tipping
When driving on uphill slopes with an uneven or slippery surface (for
example grass, gravel, sand, ice or snow) you should drive with extra care
and attention.
When driving on uphill you can use the tilt (if build in) to create a more
stable seating position for yourself.
Never drive uphill on slopes bigger than 6°. This might result into
uncontrollable behavior of the wheelchair. This can lead to material or
personal damage. (Dynamic stability according to ISO 7176-2= 6°)
