BRAKE
By locking the brakes with the brake
lever (1), the wheelchair is secured
against rolling away unintentionally
(parking brake).
The locking brake belongs to the most
important safety features of a wheel-
chair and is available as a pressure
brake (2).
!
Attention:
Please observe the maintenance
instructions as well as instructions
in the section <
General safety in-
structions > and < Brakes > in the
safety instructions < Mechanical
wheelchairs >.
• In order to prevent an unintention-
al curve while braking the wheel-
chair on slopes, both brakes are to
be activated simultaneously.
– Depending on the inclination of
the road a sideward tilting has to
be reckoned with.
• Do not support the body on the
lateral brake levers.
• The brake performance reduces
with
– tyre profi le is worn
– tyre pressure is too low
– tyres are wet
– loose or defective pressure brake.
!
Attention:
Arrange an immediate repair of
the brakes by your specialist work-
shop if the braking performance
reduces.
• Do not park wheelchairs with
PU wheels with applied pressure
brakes. – Deformations in the run-
ning surface may remain.
• If possible propel and brake the
wheelchair through the handrims.
– Perhaps danger of jamming in
the area of the brake!
