Options - Transit Wheels
Transit wheels should be used wherever your wheelchair would be too wide if
the rear wheels were used (e.g., in airplanes, buses, etc.). After the rear wheels
have been removed with the aid of the quick-release axles, the transit wheels
can immediately be used to continue riding. The transit wheels are mounted so
that they are approx. 3 centimeters above the ground when not in use. They
are thus out of the way when riding, transporting or when tipping to pass over
obstacles (e.g., kerbs, steps, etc.) (Fig. 41).
DANGER!
Your wheelchair does not have any wheel locks when the transit wheels are being used.
