Safety Precautions
When choosing a ramp, the length, and therefore
the angle of the ramp depend upon:
•
The height to be raised
•
The type of wheelchair or scooter
•
The weight of the wheelchair or scooter
and the user
•
The strength of the helper or user.
As a general guide, a minimum gradient of 1 in 6
is suggested, although 1 in 8 is recommended,
when the user is seated on the wheelchair or
scooter.
For loading an unmanned wheelchair or scooter
into a vehicle, a higher gradient can be used, but
this should not exceed 1 in 3.3 In addition to this, it
is important that you refer to your
vehicle’s user
guide for the proper degree of incline/decline and
direction before using the ramp.
- Never exceed its recommendations.
General Safety Warning
Please ensure these instructions are fully
read and implemented. Failure to do so
may result in injury to the user. Retain in a
safe place for future reference.
