2.1 Foreword
Regular maintenance is important - it increases safety and extends the life of the product. Every rehab
product should be checked and serviced once a year. However, it is advisable to check, readjust and, if
necessary, wait for products with a high frequency of use, users with growing users or users with changing
clinical pictures every 6 months.
Be Only original spare parts are to be used for all service and maintenance work.

For device operation.
Note!
For service personnel.
Danger!
Read the instruction manual first!
Read the instruction manual first!
Before using it, make yourself familiar with the handling and function of the product and
practice using it first.
You are responsible for your child's safety. Your child's safety could be compromised if you
do not follow these guidelines. However, not all conditions and unforeseen situations that
may arise can be covered. Reason, caution and prudence are factors that this product
cannot bring; they are assumed for the person who uses or accompanies the child's
wheelchair. The person using the wheelchair and related accessories should understand all
of the instructions. You should explain how to operate the wheelchair to everyone who uses
the Reha folding buggy and its accessories.
If instructions are incomprehensible and more detailed explanations are required or if you
have further questions, please contact your HOGGI specialist dealer.
First, practice driving with the child on level, manageable terrain. Together with the child,
research the effects of shifting the focus on the behavior of the rehab buggy, for example on
slopes, inclines, on all inclines or when overcoming obstacles, but only with the safe support
of a helper.
Always buckle up your child in the rehab buggy
We would like to point out that the use of a rehab buggy beyond its typical use can be
dangerous. This product is not suitable for jogging, running, skating or the like. Steerable
front wheels can start to wobble at higher speeds, which could lead to an abrupt stop and
overturning of the rehab buggy forwards. Therefore, please only push the wheelchair at
normal walking speed. Under no circumstances is it permitted to let go of the folding rehab
buggy while pushing it or to push it off.
The product may only be used on a level and firm surface.

3.1 Meaning of the symbols
3.2 General safety information

Only drive over steps and thresholds with the chassis tilted onto the rear wheels (upwards -
pulling backwards, downwards - slowly lowering forward).
Stairs may only be climbed with the help of an accompanying person.
If facilities such as ramps, lifting platforms or elevators are available, these must be used. If
facilities such as ramps etc. are missing, the obstacle must be overcome by carrying two
helpers.
To lift the rehab buggy, only grasp firmly welded or firmly screwed frame parts that are fixed
to the base of the back.
Always lean the occupant's upper body far forward when negotiating inclines, obstacles on
inclines and ramps.
Do not drive down slopes without braking, but at reduced speed. Relieving the load on the
steering wheels by changing the center of gravity can lead to steering wheel flutter.
The folding rehab buggy should only be parked on horizontal, level surfaces. Should it ever
be unavoidable to park it on an incline, please make sure that the seat is brought into an
upright position. When the backrest is in the unloaded position, there is a risk of tipping
backwards on inclines.
Always apply the brakes before leaving the folding rehab buggy or before getting in and out.
- Footboards may not be used for getting in and out.
- Only step on the footboard with shoes.
-
Depending on the setting of the footboard and the geometry of the folding rehab buggy,
there is a risk of tipping forward when stepping over the footboard. It is essential that you
practice the first steps with the child with an assistant who secures the rehab folding
buggy and modify the footrest and seat height settings if there is a tendency to tip over.
You can also increase the safety of the folding rehab buggy when getting in over the
footboard by turning the steering wheel fork forwards (this increases the wheelbase).
The general driving behavior and the effectiveness of the parking brakes depend on the air
pressure. With properly inflated wheels, your folding rehab buggy can be maneuvered much
easier and better. Before starting your journey, ensure that the air pressure of the tires used
is correct. The correct air pressure is printed on the wheel cover.
All brakes that act on the tires do not serve as service brakes, but are only designed as
parking brakes. The parking brakes must not be used as driving brakes. Suddenly stopping
the rehab buggy can lead to falls in extreme cases.
Make sure that packaging is kept away from children. There is a risk of suffocation when
using plastic packaging.
Use your folding rehab buggy only as intended. For example, avoid driving against an
obstacle (step, curb) without braking.
Avoid jumping off heels

7
Never leave your child unattended in the rehab buggy for children and adolescents. Not even
if it is secured with seat belts and the brakes are applied.
The user should wear light-colored clothing or clothing with reflectors in the dark in order to
be seen better.
We also recommend installing active lighting
.
With extreme settings such as B. short wheelbase and back in the rearmost position (active
setting) and an unfavorable posture, the rehab buggy can tip over on a flat surface.
When driving uphill, the static stability can be less than 10 °.
Hanging heavy bags or the like on the push handles can also have a negative effect on
stability.
The maximum user weight / maximum payload of the folding rehab buggy is 75 kg.
All accessories and attachments reduce the remaining load capacity.
Danger!
If and whenever possible, vehicle occupants should use the seats installed in the vehicle and
the associated restraint systems while driving a vehicle for the disabled. This is the only way
to ensure that occupants are optimally protected in the event of an accident.
DURO is not approved for use as a seat in BTW.
Always ensure that the quick-release axles on the drive wheel are correctly
adjusted. It must not be possible to remove the drive wheel if the button on the
quick-release axle is not pressed.
Neither the seat nor the back height may be exceeded.
Check the condition of the product if the packaging shows signs of damage.
Disposal: The product packaging and all metal, aluminum and plastic parts can be recycled.
Disposal must take place in accordance with the respective national legal regulations.
Please ask the city / community administration about local waste disposal companies.

Avoid reaching into the clamping areas. There is a risk of pinching on the following
assemblies:
-
-
To lift the rehab buggy, only grasp firmly welded or firmly screwed frame parts.
The HOGGI seat cushion (Trevira CS) as well as the HOGGI back cushion are flame
retardant in accordance with the standards EN 1021-1 and EN 1021-2. When using other
seat cushions and back cushions than those originally supplied by HOGGI or with
additionally used cushions the flame-retardant effect is not given.
Beware of extreme temperatures. The rehab buggy can get very hot from sunlight, on a
radiator or in the sauna. In extreme cold there is a risk of hypothermia.
For people with insensitive skin (i.e. people who cannot perceive a rise in temperature) and /
or with skin damage, make sure that metal parts do not reach too high a temperature. In
these cases it is imperative to wear appropriate clothing to protect the skin.
Visually impaired people or people with cognitive impairments must have information
material and the operating instructions read out to them by auxiliary persons, or they can use
electronic reading aids. All documents are available as PDF files at www.hoggi.de in the
download center. Product videos and product photo galleries are also available online!
After all adjustment work, tighten the previously loosened screw connections again.
The installation of seat shells is only permitted within the seat area specified by the design.
The manufacturer of this new combination must check the stability against tipping and
compliance with the maximum load before commissioning.
Always use padded seat cushions when using the seat and back plates to avoid pressure
points!
