Step 4.
Grab the straps which are on the both sides of seat frame and pull them upwards until the
frame of the wheelchair is folded.
WHEEL LOCKS
•
To lock the wheels, push the wheel lock lever forwards until the wheel is fully blocked
(separately for left and right wheel). Please, note that the wheel lock only serves to lock the
wheel when the wheelchair is at a complete stop.
WHEEL LOCKS ADJUSTMENT
The correct lock of the wheel lock depends on its adjustment and position. The handle of the wheel
lock should be positioned so that the wheel lock shoe blocks the wheel firmly and the lever does not
face excessive resistance.
•
In case of excessive resistance, pull the handle forwards slightly by twisting off the locking
screw which is located on the other side of the wheel lock (from the inside of the
wheelchair). Set the wheel lock shoe in such position that the wheel lock blocks the wheel
easily without resistance.
•
When the wheel lock shoe does not touch or lock the wheel sufficiently, follow the above
instruction by moving the handle in the opposite direction.
FOLDING BACKREST
Smooth adjustment, up to horizontal position, is possible owing to levers located above the hand
grips on the back of the backrest.
DETACH FUNCTION OF ARMRESTS
•
To dismantle the armrest, press the locking pin located at the front part of the armrest and
remove the whole armrest from the mounting openings.
•
To assemble the armrest, put the back part of the armrest into the mounting element and
close the armrest until the locking pin clicks.
PUMPING THE WHEELS
•
The wheelchair was equipped with pneumatic rear wheels (24’’) and swivel, PU front wheels
8’’ in diameter (tubeless tyre). Remember to control the air pressure in both wheels and
check the condition of the tyres in search of abrasion, cuts or surface depletion.
•
To balance the air pressure in the wheels, turn off the cap of the valve, insert the pump
(included in the set) into the valve, and pump the air.
