Tekna Tilt     5 

 

INTENDED USE AND CONDITION OF USE 

 

The wheelchair Progeo® TEKNA TILT adult/TEKNA TILT junior is a wheelchair with a tilting seat 
function and it is also folding with a crossbar system 

 
The wheelchair TEKNA TILT adult / TEKNA TILT junior is manual propelled which means that it can 

be moved manually by using the hand rims on the rear wheels or, as in most cases, it is pushed by 
an attendant using the backrest bar as point to catch hold on. 
 

It can have both a rehabilitative and active function and it is thus suitable for a daily use by users 
with different kinds of pathologies. 
It  is  used  to  guarantee  either  fully  independent  or  assisted  (with  an  attendant)  movement  for  a 

person with reduced or fully impaired movement in one or more parts of the body. 
 

As it has such a large range of accessories and configurations, the wheelchair can be used in full 
safety both inside (at home, at school, etc.) and outside (on the road, pavement, courtyard, etc.) as 
long as the temperature is within -30°C and +60°C. 

 
Where  the  user  is  affected  by  particularly  severe  pathologies  or  with  people  who  are  unable  to 
move  at  all  on  their  own,  an  attendant  is  always  advisable.  We  also  discourage  use  over  hilly, 

particularly soft, sandy or uneven ground, slopes exceeding the recommended gradient and acid 
environments. 

 

In the daily use of the wheelchair, the user may come across situations such as rough 
or irregular terrains (gravel, cobblestones, holes on the ground, etc.) or slippery terrains 

(wet, sandy, dusty, oily hard surfaces, etc.). In all such situations and, in general, in all 
those cases where the use of the wheelchair can be difficult or risky (for the wheelchair 
and  its  user),  it  is  always  advisable  to  drive  carefully  and  smoothly  with  no  sudden 

acceleration or hard braking.  
 

When the difficulty or risk is high, an attendant is always advisable
 

The maximum gradeability of the wheelchair, in order to prevent tipping back, is 
3° (6%).
 

 
Maximum load for the model TEKNA TILT ADULT / TEKNA TILT JUNIOR : 125 kg. 
 

According  to  its  dimensional  and  structural  characteristics  the  wheelchair  model  TEKNA  TILT 

ADULT is ideal for use by both teenagers and adults. 
 
According  to  its  dimensional  and  structural  characteristics  the  wheelchair  model  TEKNA  TILT 

JUNIOR is  ideal for use by both children and small adults. 

PUT INTO SERVICE / USE 

 

It is important that a general check of all the functional parts of the wheelchair IS 
CARRIED  OUT  BY  QUALIFIED  AND  AUTHORISED  PERSONNEL  ONLY,  both  to 

assess its suitability and to provide the user and his/her possible attendant with 
the correct instruction of use.  

 
Should the user and/or his/her attendant find any malfunctioning of any part of 
the wheelchair, he/she is bound to contact the dealer to solve the problem. 

 
Neglecting  the  instructions  and  information  written  in  this  manual  may  cause 
malfunctioning and/or damage to the wheelchair and/or to the user and/or to third 

parties.  Rehateam  s.r.l  is  not  responsible  for  any  damage  to  the  wheelchair 
and/or to the user and/or to third parties, caused by or coming from neglecting 

such instructions and information.
