2 Safety Instructions
2.1 General indications
ATTENTION
The risk of injuries is on all rotatable and turnable
parts. This also goes for adjustment and repair
work.
ATTENTION
The wheelchair can only be used according to its
specications. Any other use or misuse can contain
serious risks for you and your surroundings. Also
the guarantee or product liability can be terminated
in a case of misuse.
Slowly familiarize yourself with the wheelchair at the
rst use and after adjustment work has been done.
First practice on level grounds with the help of an
experienced person. Only then are you allowed to try
uphill and downhill with the help of an experienced
person.
From putting on and taking off the accessories the
measurements of the wheelchair, its weight, the
handling and the tilting changes.
ATTENTION
A strong seat inclination plus a very active rear
wheel position plus unfavorable posture can cause
tipping over even on a at surface.
ATTENTION
All mounting alterations on your wheelchair must
be coordinated and made by the manufacturer or
your rehab technician.
ATTENTION
Do not make any adjustments, repairs and/or do
maintenance work yourself. Contact your qualied
medical supply store.
READ
Consider the indications for maintenance and
inspection on your wheelchair at the end of the
operating instructions.
2.2 Handling
2.2.1 Getting in and out
ATTENTION
(1) Getting in and out can only occur on a at
surface and with ACTIVATED WHEEL LOCK. Activate
the tilt safety for each transfer and always turn the
casters forward in order to enhance the stability.
Let someone help you getting in and out if possible/
necessary. Let the helping person know of possible
hazards such as tripping, edges and your degree of
disability.
ATTENTION
(2) NEVER use the footrest/s to get in and out.
The wheelchair can tip forward. Please fold (when
possible) the footrest/s to the side or to the back in
order to get closer to the wheelchair.
�INDICATION
(3) For some children it is asked for,
therapeutically, that they get in and out on their
own by using the footrest. In this case consider the
following:
• turn casters forward,
• secure the wheelchair from rolling away,
• activate tilt safety,
• don’t let the child get in and out unattended,
• be ready to give assistance.

2.2.2 Starting and slowing down
ATTENTION
Avoid jerky starts. The wheelchair could tip
backwards. Thus, when possible, lean your upper
body forward when starting. With children we
always recommend to use the tilt safety whenever
possible.
ATTENTION
While driving, braking occurs through controlled
pressure applied to the hand rims from your palms/
ngers. Please keep in mind that you require more
strength in order to brake going downhill. When
driving downhill make sure to drive slow enough
that you are able to bring the wheelchair to a full
stop at any time.
ATTENTION
Also keep in mind that the hand rims heat up from
friction (especially hand rims with a cover).
ATTENTION
If necessary, use gloves with a leather inner surface
as used by cycling, but NEVER wool gloves.
2.2.3 Danger of tipping and flipping over
ATTENTION
Generally the hazard of ipping and tipping occurs
(also see pictures on the next page)
(1) from all kinds of height differences of the
ground surface,
(2) from stairs (never manage alone),
(3) from participation in public trafc under the
inuence of medication, drugs, alcohol, etc.,
(4) when driving up hill and/or the emphasis of
different objects on the back of the wheel-
chair,
(5) when leaning out of the wheelchair,
(6) from longitudinal grooves such as streetcar
rails (hazard of getting stuck). Always cross
at a 90° angle.

2.2.4 Up and downhill
ATTENTION
Keep in mind the higher strain in order to drive or
brake going up or downhill (see 2.2.1).
ATTENTION
(1) If possible, the user should tilt his upper body
when driving up or downhill in the direction of the
hill.
ATTENTION
Only go up ramps or hills with an incline or descent
greater than 6% with assistance.
ATTENTION
NEVER go on ramps or hills WITHOUT the anti-tipper
activated.
ATTENTION
(2) NEVER drive on inclines, descents or curbs
sideways to the road, you may tip over.

2.3 Changing seats independently
ATTENTION
Changing seats independently is dangerous and
requires experience. Practice this rst with the help
of a carer, before you change seats by yourself.
ATTENTION
The footrests are located in the leg area, whereby
the danger of tripping can occur! Make sure
that the footrest is NOT in the maneuver area!
Otherwise, change the transfer side if possible.
Fold the footrest/s, if possible, away or ip the leg
support/s out.
(1) In order to transfer independently drive as close
as possible (forwards or in a 45°angle) to the other
seating area and assure yourself of the rm xation. If
possible, ip the side part back. Lock the wheel lock
and hold on to the new, nonslip seat
(2) It is an advantage to have a nonslip board or a
similar device. Make sure that the nonslip board is
securely on the surface and can’t slip around itself
and proceed as already described.

2.4 Grabbing objects
Carefully test the tilt behavior of the wheelchair to the
side, front and back with the help of an experienced
and strong helper.
ATTENTION
(1) Do not grab objects behind the wheelchair
reaching over the back of the chair, DANGER OF
FLIPPING OVER. Turn the wheelchair around and go
towards the object from the front or the side.
ATTENTION
In order to grab objects from the side/in front of
the wheelchair secure the wheelchair from rolling
away! Do not lean too far out of the wheelchair.
� INDICATION
Generally, using a reacher is safer.
(2) If possible, when leaning out of the wheelchair
sideways, hold on to something on the opposite side
with your free hand and try not to shift too much
weight.
(3) If you have to lean forward out of the wheelchair,
NEVER strain the leg supports, DANGER OF
FLIPPING OVER! First turn the casters forward for
better positioning.
In addition, (if possible) put both feet on the ground,
preferably as far from you as possible. Here you are
generally on the safe side if you use a reacher. Your
medical store will gladly advise you.

2.5 Overcoming obstacles
ATTENTION
A WHEELCHAIR IS NOT FOR CARRYING. IT WAS NOT
DESIGNED NOR TESTED OR BUILT FOR THIS:
For this reason avoid stairs whenever possible!
Instead to overcome height differences use ramps
or elevators.
ATTENTION
(1) NEVER overcome stairs etc. with the wheelchair
ALONE.
ATTENTION
(2) Only overcome stairs with the help of two
experienced people. For this, the anti-tipper must
be deactivated. Be sure that the wheelchair is only
held by metal parts which are screwed securely to
the frame.
ATTENTION
(3) NEVER PULL OR CARRY THE WHEELCHAIR
OVER AN OBSTACLE BY THE REMOVEABLE SLIDING
HANDLE OR THE PUSH HANDLE.
ATTENTION
The plastic caps on the push handle can loosen due
to adverse conditions (heat, precipitation, heavy
strain etc). Inform your carer of the dangers.
ATTENTION
The same goes for the removable leg support,
foldable desk side guard and/or foot rests.
ATTENTION
Do not under any circumstances use escalators,
not even with a carer. Shopping malls and public
building with escalators always have elevators as
well.
ATTENTION
Do not drive towards, for example, curbsides
without braking, DANGER OF TIPPING OVER!
ATTENTION
(1) In order to overcome height differences or
when using an elevator and lifting platforms, you
generally have to deactivate the anti-tipper. You
could become restricted in maneuverability.
(2) In order to overcome curbsides your carer should
slightly tilt you backwards, lift both casters over the
threshold and then, with the rear wheels, carefully
push the wheelchair over the edge-DO NOT LIFT. The
anti-tipper must be deactivated.
(1)
(2)
(3)

user manual for sport and DLS frame
15
(3) When driving off of the curb please proceed
correspondingly.
ATTENTION
For this, the casters must stay in the air until the
rear wheels are over the threshold. DO NOT put the
caster down rst, DANGER OF FLIPPING OVER.
(4) Practiced drivers can overcome curbsides with the
so called wobbling without someone’s help. Slowly
and with the help of a carer familiarize yourself with
this technique.
ATTENTION
This maneuver requires a lot of practice and control
over the wheelchair!
• Drive slowly in a 90° angle up to the spot you
want to overcome and wobble the wheelchair
slowly backwards so that the casters do not
have contact to the ground.
• Bring the casters hanging in the air over the
threshold/edge and drive the wheelchair up to
the obstacle.
• Drive over the threshold/edge with your upper
body leaning forward as far as possible and
put the casters down on the ground after.

2.6 Wheel lock
ATTENTION
The knee lever brake is a wheel lock and NOT
designed to brake during the drive. While driving,
(especially downhill) you could bring the wheelchair
to a sudden full stop, whereby you could fall out of
the wheelchair. A service brake, such as a drum
brake, allows controls braking.
ATTENTION
Before each drive make sure to check
• the correct tire pressure (information is on
the outer tire)
• and if necessary the brake pressing bolt.
• and if necessary the cable controls
ATTENTION
Cable controls are high maintenance! Especially
the clamp screws and the Bowden cable need to be
checked on a regular basis and retuned if necessary.
These cable controls are used for:
• Drum brakes
• Cable brake (integrated in the side guard)
• One hand brake
• Accompany brake (only by older models).
ATTENTION
The reverse gear stop is effective on an incline of
max. 12,3% (=7°) with a load (passenger incl. seat
shell or similar) of up to 90kg.
ATTENTION
Regularly remove lint and dirt from the brake bolts.
ATTENTION
Keep in mind that dirt, wetness, ice, snow, mud etc.
can impair the brake force of the wheel lock.
ATTENTION
Do not make repairs on the wheel lock yourself. Ask
your rehab technician.
ATTENTION
After all changes on the rear wheels (position of the
axle plate, tire changing) the functionality of the
wheel lock must be checked and if necessary newly
adjusted.
2.7 Anti-tipper
ATTENTION
We recommend inexperienced and young users to
use the anti-tipper whenever possible.
� INDICATION
Additionally, each one of our wheelchairs can be
equipped with anti-tippers.
(1) In order to independently activate the anti-tipper
you must secure the wheelchair from rolling away,
slowly reach behind you without leaning too far out of
the wheelchair, push the anti-tipper down and turn it
180° on its own axis until it snaps back into the guide
slot. If possible hold with your other hand on to the
rear wheel/hand rim on the opposite side:
ATTENTION
(2) When overcoming height differences or when
using elevators or lifting platforms deactivate
the anti-tipper. You could become restricted in
maneuverability.
(2)

user manual for sport and DLS frame
17
2.8 Angle adjustable back and seat tilt
ATTENTION
(1) With an angle adjustable back or seat tilt the
anti-tipper is to be activated starting from a setting
of 90°.
ATTENTION
For active use the back or seat tilt must be in an
upright (90°) position.
Make sure that when adjusting the back angle or
when tilting that the head has enough support from
for example a heat rest.
ATTENTION
NEVER activate the seat tilt or the angle adjustment
while driving.
� INDICATION
(2) In the case of amputations or leg elevation and
simultaneously “leaning back”, we recommend
for improvement of the tilt stability a wheel base
elongation, at least the use of an anti-kipper.
ATTENTION
A wheel base extension is strictly NOT a replacement
for an anti-tipper!
2.9 Casters
ATTENTION
Casters which are not correctly adjusted or driving
too fast, especially downhill, can cause the casters
to dangerously ap back and forth.
� INDICATION
Clean the axes and the axle holder regularly,
removing lint and dirt.
INFORMATION
After every change on the rear wheels the casters
must be newly adjusted. Let this be done by an
experienced rehab technician.
� INDICATION
(3) When transferring in and out of the wheelchair
turn the casters forward for greater stability by
slightly moving the wheelchair backwards.

2.10 Folding and unfolding
ATTENTION
When folding or unfolding the wheelchair be sure to
be aware of the CRUSHING HAZARD due to the cross
braces.
ATTENTION
Before each use of the wheelchair make sure that
the parts that have been demounted are closed,
locked or put back in properly.
ATTENTION
(1) After folding or unfolding the wheelchair (e.g.
after transport etc.) the cross brace tubes must
be tightly secured in the pedestals, otherwise the
wheelchair will not function properly.
ATTENTION
(2) If your Jump has a stabilizer bar on the back it
must be locked tightly before the rst use.
The same goes for
• hollow molded back,
• the tight seat plate SeatFix and
• the foldable side guards.
They have to be closed and/or locked before the rst
use of the wheelchair.

2.11. Loading and transporting
For the transport of your wheelchair in a car please
consider the following points:
• If necessary ip the anti-tipper inwards.
• If necessary remove the push handle/s or han-
dle bars.
• If possible remove the hollow molded back and
fold the back down.
• If possible fold the wheelchair and close it se-
curely with the folding xture strap.
• Unlock the wheel lock and remove the rear
wheels.
• Secure the wheelchair with tension belts in the
vehicle.
• The tension belts can only be secured on xed
frame parts. Foot rests, side guards, back or
seat adapters are not suitable for this.
• Secure all removed parts of the wheelchair in
the vehicle so that they cannot hurt anyone in
case of sudden braking.
ATTENTION
There is a risk of getting hurt from loose, ying
objects such as leg supports, seat shells, wheels,
sticks, bags etc.
Inform yourself by your car salesman about safely
securing the wheelchair with lashing exes or other
suitable safety measures in your vehicle before
transporting the wheelchair.
2.11.1 Transport in public transportation
In every public transportation a spot must be provided
to place the wheelchair according to the EG-guideline
2001/85/EG.
ATTENTION
The spot in public transportation is only arranged for
EMPTY wheelchairs.
ATTENTION
Place the wheelchair in the provided area opposite
the driving direction so that the backrest and a side
guard rest securely on the edge of the provided area.
The wheelchair is not allowed to shift in case of
an accident.
Close the wheel lock.
During the drive leave the wheelchair and seat
yourself in the provided seat next to the spot for
your wheelchair.
If available, use the seat belt!
Let someone help you get in and out of the public
transportation,
• so that you don’t get stuck in the crack be-
tween the door and the sidewalk,
• so that you don’t panic
• so that your claim for the marked seat possibly
gets more emphasis,
• so that you can be helped getting into the seat
and tying down the wheelchair.
2.11.2 Transport in other vehicles
Wheelchairs can never reach the stabile features of a
rmly mounted car seat because of their purpose and
light build.
ATTENTION
Thus, we recommend you to NOT use the wheelchair
as a seat while transporting in a vehicle.

2.12 Other risks
ATTENTION
After a collision, contact your rehab service station
to check the carriage, frame and Bowden cables
and have the damages xed.
� INDICATATON
Avoid direct sunrays. Dark parts on the wheelchair
can heat quickly and can possibly cause burns.
ATTENTION
FIRE RISK from the textile parts (seat shell and
back covering, seat cushion or plastic parts). Keep
sources of ignition away from the wheelchair.
ATTENTION
Hand rims heat up from strong friction especially
from braking while driving fast or from driving
downhill for a while.
� INDICATION
For sensitive skin we recommend to wear gloves as
used for cycling (nger stalls with a leather inner
surface---but NEVER wool gloves).
ATTENTION
RISK OF HAND INJURY from turning parts. Do not
grab in between the spokes of the rear wheel or
between the rear wheel and the knee lever brake.
ATTENTION
Do not use the wheelchair in damp rooms or drive
in salt water with it. Important parts may corrode
and not work properly anymore, whereby the driving
qualities or the lifespan of the wheelchair are
negatively inuenced.
ATTENTION
The position of the rear wheels in the axle plate can
only be changed by a qualied specialty store! It
inuences the focus (tilt ability) and the functionality
of the knee lever brake.
ATTENTION
Do not put your ngers between the hand rims and
the rear wheels. (Grooved wheels with built in hand
rims make this impossible.)
ATTENTION
Be cautious by tight spots: You can bruise your
ngers (4) and/or damage the hand rims.
ATTENTION
From braking with the hand rims, heat occurs
through friction. If necessary, use leather gloves as
used for cycling.
ATTENTION
Regularly check the screwing and the secure position
of the hand rims according to the maintenance plan.
ATTENTION
Regularly check the secure position of the spokes
according to the maintenance plan.
ATTENTION
From strong sunrays, the wheels can heat up to 42°
and you could burn yourself.
