Moving the wheelchair and its user up or down a staircase by escorts 

 

warning:

 

If possible this action should be avoided in order to prevent injury to you and/or your escort. Read and 
follow the warnings to escorts. If you do not heed these warnings, it may result in falling or tilting and 
serious injury to all involved. 
 

1.

 

Always get the help of two or more escorts when moving a wheelchair with the user in it up or 
down a staircase.  

2.

 

Make sure the user  is firmly seated in the wheelchair with his/her arms, legs or hands safely 
out of the way of obstacles.  

3.

 

Recommended way of carrying:  

a.

 

escorts position themselves  to the left and the right side  of the wheelchair with 
the user seated in it. 

b.

 

the escorts pick up the wheelchair by the bottom of the seat in front and back 

c.

 

the escorts lift the wheelchair carefully and try and find the equilibrium point of 
the wheelchair with the user in it. 

 

Detection gates 

When  passing  through  a  detection  gate,  for  instance  in  shops,  it  may  react  to  your  wheelchair  by 
sounding an alarm. In the construction of the wheelchair this possibility has been taken into account 
and we tried to prevent this from happening. The wheelchair has actually been tested, but since there 
are numerous brands of detection systems, and the circumstances vary, occasionally an alarm may be 
set off.  

 

Substrate 

The wheelchair works best on a hard surface. Therefore try to avoid soft surface such as sand, mud 
grass shell paths etc.
