SAFETY REGULATIONS
Transfer into the wheelchair
Techniques for transfer must be practised extensively together with qualified staff.
The methods described below are for advisory purposes only.
Transferring into the wheelchair sideways
(Fig. 4)
1. Position the wheelchair as close to you as possible.
2. Lock the brakes. Se “Brakes” under “Settings”.
3. Place one hand on the far corner of the wheelchair chassis and the other on the surface
you are moving from.
4. Carefully transfer yourself into the wheelchair with good balance.
To ensure the wheelchair is as stable as possible, reverse the wheelchair by 5–10 cm
before stopping to make sure the Castors are pointing forwards.
Lifting while the user is in the wheelchair
(Fig. 5)
If the wheelchair is to be lifted while the user remains seated, always grip the wheelchair’s
chassis. See arrows in

tions.
