Introduction
The Power Assist HD (PMW-PSHD) is designed as an aid to a wheelchair attendant providing power to
aid pushing in otherwise strenuous situations such as up steep hills, etc.
The PMW-PSHD features some ingenious concepts to help the installation and operation of the device.
Some of these are covered by a pending patent.
The PMW-PSHD is designed to work in conjunction with most wheelchairs with seat widths between
16” and 24”.
The PMW-PSHD is dual-wheel (for added stability and traction).
The PMW-PSHD is to be controlled by an attendant with a manual wheelchair and user up to a combined
weight of 400lbs (182kg).
The PMW-PSHD uses a 24V 12ah battery pack, and has a range of up to ten miles between charges.
