8. Detailed description of construction and regulation
8. . Mechanism of frame assembly Fig.8.1.
The frame folding mechanism is located inside the frame, and on the frame in three
places in its left part and in three places in its right side. Describing these places from the
top, from the rehab buggy pushing handle, they are:
a) frame folding loc - a handle for loc ing and unloc ing the frame folding option, which
has a red loc built in on the right part of the frame (see Fig. 8.1)
b) right and left frame swivel - element fixing the upper frame with the bottom frame
(see Fig.8.1.)
c) right and left twister- an element that allows the upper frame to be folded down to
reduce its dimensions (see Fig.8.1.)
8.2. Disassembly of the rehab buggy frame Fig.8. .
To unfold the rehab buggy frame: place the rehab buggy frame horizontally on
the ground so that the pushing handle is at the top, then remove the transport
loc (see 8.5 Mounting and removing the transport loc ) and pull up the rehab
buggy pushing handle (see Fig. 8.2.) until hearing a clear clic . The rehab buggy
frame will be properly disassembled only when the folding mechanism of the
frame is properly closed. This is evidenced by the clear "clic " sound coming from
the well-closed frame folding mechanism.

folded (closed) frame of the rehab buggy prior to its automatic opening during
transport and storage.
The transport loc consists of two parts (see Fig.8.4): eyelet (female element)
and pin (male element).
8.5. Installation and removal of the transport lock Fig.8.5.
In order to secure the frame against its accidental opening, the frame must first
be folded (see 8.3. Assembly of the rehab buggy frame) and then place the loc
eyelet on the loc ing pin so that both of these elements close over each other.
To unloc the transport loc , before unfolding the frame, pull the loc eyelet out
of the loc ing pin, and then you can proceed to unfold the frame of the rehab
buggy.
8.6. Front swiveling wheels, full Fig. 8.6.
Wheels of German production guarantee the highest quality of rehab buggy
driving, pleasure from driving and an elegant appearance. The tires are tubeless,
filled with a special gel, which has suspension qualities very close to pneumatic
tires. The wheels are pre-assembled in the for s of the front wheels, which are
ended with front wheel steering axle from the top (see Fig.8.6).
Both front wheels can be set for driving straight ahead or unloc ed for turning,
which ma es handling of the rehab buggy much easier (see 8.10. Front wheel
drive loc ).

disassembling it, when pushing the rehab buggy, the bigger comfort of both the child and
the assistant is clearly noticeable.
It is advisable to remove the loc and allow the front wheels to be tilted while driving the
rehab buggy on a completely smooth surface such as in shopping centers, schools.
On the other hand, in the case of inferior surfaces, moving on inclined surfaces, when
crossing thresholds or curbs, it is recommended to mount a loc and loc ing the turning
of front wheels.
