To verify the suitability of the environment where the stair climber is to be
used, you may request a free on-site inspection and demonstration, which will be
performed by authorized personnel for the purpose of ascertaining the compatibility
of the device for its environment of use.
Upon delivery of the stair climber:
- If the device has been damaged in transport when you receive it, do not use it,
but contact the technical support department to have it checked and repaired.
- When the stair climber is delivered, the authorized personnel will perform a free
series of demonstration tests and issue a document attesting to training
and education for its use.
- The above document will indicate the person, identified as the operator,
who should be the only person to use the stair climber.
- It is a good idea for the operator to use the device without a person on board,
performing all the steps of climbing and descending, in order to become as expert
as possible in its use.
- The stair climber must be operated by a person who has the physical capacity
to control the mass of the device and the person transported.
- The operator must be completely familiar with the contents of the manual.
- It is essential that the operator check his ability to manoeuvre the device
by practicing on a flat surface.
- Before using the device each day, check that it is in good condition and that all
of its safety devices are working.
General warnings:
Never use the stair climber on surfaces that are wet, smooth or slippery,
waxed, icy or similar, that do not ensure the operator’s stability or the action of the
wheel brake.
- Carpets and mats can be hazardous.
- While on the stairs, never let your grip on the stair climber go for any reason.
- Make sure that no one is below you while you are travelling on the stairs.
- Make sure the passenger is seated and the safety belt is buckled.
- Always wear closed shoes so as not to interfere with the moving parts;
they should be tightly laced and have a non-skid sole.
- Never stick your hands in the mechanism when it is moving.
Disposal:
The stair climber is an electrical and electronic device that must be disposed
of by KSP Italia or the APIRAEE consortium, whose mandate is the disposal
of electrical and electronic waste. Such disposal is at no charge for the
