Special safety informations
▲
For safety reasons, the wheelchair
must be unloaded (without bagga-
ge and without user) during its loa-
ding into a car or when a split ramp
is used.
▲
Ensure that the wheelchair can roll
back for a short distance (neutral
zone) if forward motion on the
ramp is interrupted or when set-
ting in motion at the bottom of the
ramp.
▲
Cars and vans should be parked on
a level and firm surface with the
handbrake on to prevent them
from rolling away.
▲
Ensure that the ramp cannot slip
at the ground end or at the trans-
port vehicle end.
▲
Ramps should be positioned so as
to leave enough space for
wheelchair steering correction wi-
thout one of the wheels protruding
over the edge of the ramp.
▲
Only use the wheelchair on dry,
clean and undamaged ramps or lif-
ting equipment.
▲
Pre-select the lowest maximum
speed.
