8.1 Pushing
Important:
At the start of every journey make sure that the interface is correctly fitted into the frame and
that the locking clips are fully closed. Please refer to section 4.3 ‘Fitting the seat to the
chassis’ for more information.
Do not allow children to play with either of the gas spring release levers.
1. The wheelbase is easy to push over hard, even surfaces but may be more difficult
over rough, uneven surfaces and the wheels can sink into soft ground. Never force
the wheelbase if it becomes stuck, this may cause the rear wheels to lift and the
wheelbase to be tipped forwards. If the wheelbase gets jammed on a stone or
cracked pavement, tip it backwards to raise the front wheel over the obstacle and
then proceed. On soft ground it may be easier to pull the wheelbase backwards.
2. The wheelbase has swivelling front castor wheels and is easily steered simply by
turning the wheelbase in the desired direction.
3. Whenever possible avoid steep and uneven surfaces because there is a danger
that the wheelbase may tip over. If you cannot avoid difficult surfaces you must
take extra care when travelling across them.
4. Do not use the wheelbase in sandy conditions.
5. Always use two hands for pushing the wheelbase.
