1. Important safety instructions
In order to avoid any accidents and dangerous situations
practice using your wheelchair on a flat and clearly visible
area. The presence of an accompanying person is recom-
mended for this.
• Before you start using your wheelchair make sure that
all fitted parts are properly secured
• Never lift the wheelchair on parts which are not firmly
assembled (armrests or leg supports)
• Make sure that the screwing axle/full floating axle are
tightly in the axle holder, otherwise there is danger of
injuries/risk of injuries
• Please note that the risk of overturning can be increase
by the change of balance (e.g. strong movements of the
upper body or surmounting obstacles). The critical
obstacle height is 23 mm.
• Stairs and bigger obstacles must be surmounted only
with 2 accompanying people. Use the lifting points 1
and 2 (look at the overview of the wheelchair) If there
are facilities like –ramps, elevators or stair climbing aids
use them.
• When driving down slopes you must have in mind that
a risk of overturning exists already at 8 % (5 °). Therefore
it is recommended to use a tipping /turnover protection.
• Avoid driving against obstacles (steps, kerbs) or
bumping down from a higher level.
• Avoid driving on uneven loose underground.
• When surmounting obstacles (stairs etc.) you must have
an accompanying person with you. Use the tipping aid
to tip the wheelchair appropriately.

• When getting on or off the wheelchair both handbrakes
must be pulled.
• Take care of adequate depth of tread on your tyres.
• When using roads, the Highway Code must be observed.
• The wheelchair’s lightning must always be visible to
other road users.
• You must not use the handbrake to stop the wheelchair.
• When braking down on fast rides or on long slopes
using the wheel grips your fingers and palms get hot.
Attention! Danger of burning!
• We recommend the use of leather gloves for outdoor
rides. They offer a better grip and at the same time
protect your fingers and palms from dirt and injuries.
• When shifting between wheelchair and bed always
make sure
- to pull both parking brakes/hand brakes
- to swing the side part on the getting on and off side
backwardly
- to pull up the foot plates (when getting on and off)
swing them inside/outside or take them off.
