User Manual | Handling of Wheelchairs
Method 1
The assistant should tilt the chair until the front castors clear
the kerb. Roll the chair forward and lower the front castors to
the pavement. Push the chair forward until the rear wheels
roll up and over the kerb. See Fig 3 and Fig 4.

Method 2
The assistant should stand on the pavement and turn the chair
so that the rear wheels are against the kerb. The chair should
be tilted back to the balance point and, in one continuous
movement, the rear wheels should be pulled up and over the
kerb. See fig 5.
Fig 5
DO NOT return the front castors to the ground until the chair
back has been pulled backward far enough to clear the edge
of the kerb. Unless the assistant has exceptional upper body
strength, it is recommended that two assistants be utilised
when choosing Method 2.
WARNING:
DO NOT attempt to lift a wheelchair by lifting on any
removable (detachable) parts. Lifting by means of any
removable (detachable) parts of a wheelchair may result in
injury to the user or damage to the wheelchair.
WARNING:
Extreme caution is advised when it is necessary to move
an occupied wheelchair up or down the stairs. RGK
recommends using two assistants and making thorough
preparations. Make sure to use ONLY secure, non-
detachable parts for hand-hold supports.
