2.2 Before every use
Please check the braking effect of the locking
brake (and the drum brake, depending on the
design)
before every use. The locking brake
can only function properly with sufficient air
pressure and flawless tyre profile of the rear
wheels.
Check the correct tyre inflation pressure
according to the indication on the tyre
equipment. The correct inflation pressure is
printed on the wheelcover and should be at
least 7.5 bar for the rear wheels. By the way: it
will be a lot easier to drive and manoeuvre your
wheelchair with the correct air pressure of
caster and rear wheels.
Please check the safe and firm fit of the quick-
release-axles: If the quick-release-axle button is
not pressed, the rear wheels or casters must
not be removable. The axles need to be
cleaned from dust and fluff regularly.
Please conduct a general visual inspection to
duly discover and repair possible damage that
might lead to endangerment.
2.3 How to avoid tipping
Avoid using the foot rest(s) when getting in or
out of your wheelchair for it might tip forward.
Please fold the foot rest(s) to the side or to the
back in order to get closer to the wheelchair.
And make sure that you only conduct this
action on firm, even ground and with the
locking brake tightened.
Practice all driving techniques on even ground
and only with the support of an experienced
assistant at first. Only after that should you try
and tackle downgrade and upgrade paths –
again, with the support of an experienced
assistant.

ATTENTION
Avoid putting your wheelchair into bank
positions on uneven or sloping ground to
prevent it from tipping sidewards! Always
drive in right angle from the hillside/the
obstacle, never diagonally!
1
ATTENTION
BEFORE putting your wheelchair into a rest
position by tilting its seat or changing the
back angle to more than 90°, make sure to
turn both anti-tippers into functional
position.
Please drive downgrade or upgrade paths
exclusively with the anti-tipper feature
activated. When driving on upgrade paths
and offsets, bend the upper part of your
body forward as far as possible and drive
ramps and upgrades with a pitch or incline
of more than 6% only with the support of an
assistant. When driving downgrade paths,
please bend your upper body as much to the
back as possible.
Please always use both anti-tippers if the
back angle is adjusted to more than 90°
and/or the immersible back extension is
active – regardless of whether the
wheelchair is resting or being pulled.
