Kerb Edge
STARTING TO DRIVE YOUR POWER WHEELCHAIR
Getting Started
Select an area with plenty of space.
Ensure that when seated in the in the powerchair you are in a comfortable
position and can easily and freely operate the controls.
Moving off and steering
Turn the power on and check that your batteries are fully charged.
Set your speed to a low setting.
Gently push the joystick in the direction you wish to travel. The harder you
push the joystick the faster you will travel.
Release the joystick, this will automatically return to the centre position and
the electromagnetic brake will be activated.
Reversing
Before reversing please ensure that the area behind is free from any hazard
or obstruction.
Kerb Climbing
We recommend that wherever possible that a suitable access point such as a
drop kerb or ramp be used. The necessity to climb a kerb directly should be
as a last resort.
Your powerchair is capable of climbing a 2.5cm (1”)
kerb. Care should be taken when attempting to climb a
kerb. Please address the kerb at 90º.
Reduce speed to a slow rate until the front castor
meets the edge of the kerb then push the joystick
forward to accelerate up over the kerb. The backrest
MUST be in the upright position before attempting any
kerb/incline.
Warning: Do not hit the kerb at speed and do not attempt to climb a kerb
if the anti tipping castors have been removed. Please take time to get
accustomed to your new powerchair before driving in heavily
pedestrianised areas or attempting to climb kerbs.
You should always use a drop kerb or ramp if the seat is set in it’s
highest position as the higher centre of gravity could cause the
powerchair to become unstable.
