1.4 Usage
The Pandhora EVO wheelchair is a self-propelled model, so motion
is created manually by pushing the handrails of the rear wheels.
This can have a rehabilitative effect and keeps the user active,
making the EVO suitable for a wide range of users with different
requirements.
The EVO can be used safely both inside and outside, including with
the full range of accessories and configurations. In the case of
users with a serious reduction in physical ability it is always
recommen- ded to use the wheelchair with the presence of a carer.
The EVO is not recommended for use on particularly rough terrain
such as mountain paths, sandy soil, acidic environments, or on
slopes grea- ter than the safe working angle.
The EVO is suitable for teenagers and adults.
1.5 General recommendations
Before you start using your wheelchair, we recommend that you
read the instructions carefully, paying particular attention to the
chapter dedicated to safety.
