1 Introduction
1.1 General Information
Like any other medical aid, a wheelchair is a technical
device which may bear certain dangers if used inap-
propriately. This brochure was written to help you ma-
ke yourself thoroughly familiar with your wheelchair
and its potentials.
ATTENTION
For this purpose, please read the following manuals
and instructions provided with your wheelchair:

1.5 Specification Jump beta
Jump beta is a lightweight, versatile activity wheelchair
for indoor and outdoor use (flat, school, workplace, lei-
sure time, travels). It is equipped with two different
frame versions with two different leg supports each:
• firmly integrated with the frame (sports-frame)
• or pivoting and removable (PLS-frame).
Both frames are available with straight or abducted (6
cm) leg supports and two frame heights:
• standard height and
• XL-height (+4 cm)
for very tall people with particularly long lower legs.
Jump beta is suitable for adolescents and adults from
a seat width of 28 cm and up to a maximum payload
of 120 kg. 3 frame sizes are available depending on
the seat depth chosen:
• frame size 4 (for wheel sizes 22“/24“)
• frame size 5 (for wheel sizes 24“/26“)
• frame size XL (for wheel size 26“)
Thanks to its double cross-brace, Jump provides
freedom of twisting and driving comfort comparable
to that of a wheelchair with a rigid frame. In order to
support long-term and sustainable therapy concepts,
all equipment components are compatible with any
frame version and may be converted or upgraded at
any time. The wheelchair is perfectly adjustable to the
user’s physiognomic needs.
Jump’s seat/back area provides manifold options,
enabling a highly differentiated positioning of the us-
er:
• seat and back covers/belts,
• firm seat plate and firm moulded back,
• anatomic seat/back unit,
• suitable for all kinds of seat shells (type 1-3)
Casters are available in various versions in sizes from
4’’ to 7’’.
The side-parts are available in various versions as
well: from welted aluminium (height-adjustable) to re-
tractable and pivoting versions, with or without arm
rest (also height-adjustable).
Foot rest(s) are available in both versions (on the in-
side or outside): divided or persistent. They all fold up-
wards, and in the case of the sports-frame versions
they are pivoting as well. For the PLS-frame, an up-
ward-folding leg rest with physiological pivotal point
and leg support is available.
Furthermore, Jump beta offers a wide range of equip-
ment options (cf. order sheet).
1.6 Usage
The wheelchair serves the sole purpose of active or
passive transportation of the person to whom it has
beenadjustedbyaqualiedspecialisedtrade.Itmay
be used without restrictions indoors, and on rm
ground outdoors. If the wheelchair is to be used on
uneven grounds, such as sand, gravel, cobblestone,
etc., a suitable upgrade (e.g. outdoors power steering
device) is necessary.
ATTENTION The wheelchair must not be used in ex-
tremely wet areas (shower, sauna, etc.), and it should
not be exposed to wetness in any excessive fashion.
ATTENTION The wheelchair must not be used as
means of transportation of goods, objects, and the
like.

2 Safety Instructions
2.1 General Indications
ATTENTION
All rotating and pivoting parts pose a certain risk of
injury. This is also the case for adjustment and rep-
aration works.
READ
Before putting your wheelchair into service, please
read the enclosed brochure “General Usage and Safe-
ty Advice”.
ATTENTION
The wheelchair may exclusively be used according
to its specification. Any other inappropriate use may
put you and your surroundings into serious danger.
Furthermore, any disregard of appropriate use may
lead to the expiry of our warranty and product lia-
bility!
Make yourself thoroughly familiar with your wheelchair
after adjustments have been done or before putting it
intoserviceforthersttime.Practiseonevenground
andwiththehelpofanassistantatrst.Onlythencan
you, with an assistant, try to tackle slopes.
Removing or attaching items of equipment changes
the wheelchair’s measurements, weight, driving char-
acteristics, and tendency to tip over.
Please consider that a strong seat inclination and
very active rear wheel position combined with a dis-
advantageous posture may cause the wheelchair to
tip backwards even on level ground. Only very expe-
rienced wheelchair users should make such extreme
adjustments.
ATTENTION
Any constructional changes of your wheelchair must
be discussed with, and conducted by, the manufac-
turer or your rehab technician.
ATTENTION
Do not conduct any adjustments, reparations, and/
or maintenance work yourself. Please turn to your
qualified medical store for this purpose.
READ
Please mind the advice on maintenance and inspec-
tion of your wheelchair at the end of this user manual.

2.2 Driving Characteristics
2.2.1 Getting in and out
ATTENTION
(1) Only get into or out of your wheelchair while on
even ground and with the LOCKING BRAKE TIGHT-
ENED. Always activate the anti-tipper and turn the
casters forwards in order to enhance the wheel-
chair’s stability.
If necessary/possible, have someone help you get in
or out. Make your assistant aware of any possible dan-
gers, such as tripping points, hems, or the nature of
your disability.
ATTENTION
(2) NEVER use the foot rest(s) to get into or out of
your wheelchair for it may tip forwards. If possible,
please fold the foot rest away in order to get closer
to the wheelchair.
�PLEASE NOTE
(3) In some cases, it might be therapeutically desir-
able that a child gets into or out of the wheelchair
independently via the foot rest. In this case, always
do the following:
• turn the casters forwards,
• secure the wheelchair against rolling away,
• activate the anti-tipper,
• do not let the child get in or out without super-
vision,
• always be ready to help.

2.2.2 Starting and Braking
ATTENTION
Always avoid a jerky start for the wheelchair might
tip backwards. So, if possible, lean forwards when
starting. For children, we generally recommend us-
ing the anti-tipper whenever possible.
ATTENTION
When driving actively, you may brake by gradually
excreting pressure on the hand rims with your palms
and fingers. Please keep in mind that you are going
to have to use considerably more force when brak-
ing on downward slopes. Always ride very slowly on
such slopes so you can bring your wheelchair to a
standstill at any moment.
ATTENTION
Also keep in mind that the hand rims may heat up
through friction.
ATTENTION
If necessary, wear gloves with leather palms (like
the ones used in cycling), but NEVER woollen gloves.
2.2.3 Danger of Tipping Over
ATTENTION
There is a general risk of the wheelchair tipping
over:
(1) when faced with any kind of offset or curb,
(2) when faced with staircases (never try to over-
come them alone!),
(3) when participating in road traffic under the influ-
ence of medication, drugs, alcohol, etc.
(4) when faced with slopes and/or when you have
objects attached to the back of the wheelchair,
which change its centre of gravity,
(5) when leaning out of the wheelchair,
(6) when crossing transverse ribs, e.g. tram rails -
only do so from a 90° angle, otherwise there is a
high risk of getting stuck and flipping over (if possi-
ble, try to find a different spot to cross).

2.2.4 Up- and Downgrade Slopes
ATTENTION
Please consider the considerably higher force nec-
essary to ride and brake on slopes (cf. 2.2.1).
ATTENTION
(1) When tackling upgrade slops, always lean your
upper body forwards. When riding on downgrade
slopes or offsets, lean backwards as much as pos-
sible.
ATTENTION
When tackling an up- or downgrade slope with an
inclination of more than 6%, only do so with an as-
sistant!
ATTENTION
NEVER tackle up- or downgrade slopes WITHOUT
the anti-tipper activated!
ATTENTION
(2) NEVER ride on slopes and offsets crossways. The
wheelchair might tip over to one of its sides.

2.3 Independent Transfer
ATTENTION
Independent transfer from or to the wheelchair
is dangerous and some experience is required. So
please practise this with an assistant several times
before attempting to transfer by yourself.
ATTENTION
The foot rests are in the leg area, which may cause
a risk of tripping! Make sure the foot rest is NOT in
the area of your movement when transferring! Oth-
erwise please transfer from a different side. If possi-
ble, fold the foot rest(s) and leg supports away.
(1) To transfer independently, get as close as possible
(frontal, in a 45° angle) to the other seat and make
sure the wheelchair stays steady. If possible, fold the
side part to the back. Lock the locking brake and prop
up on the new, steady seat.
(2) A sliding board or the like would be of advantage.
Make sure that the board rests rmly on the target
seat so it won’t slip and proceed as described above.

2.4 Reaching for Obstacles
With the help of an experienced and strong assis-
tant, test the wheelchair’s proneness to tipping to all
sides. In order to do this, carefully lean out of your
wheelchair as far as possible to the sides, front, and
back respectively, to, for instance, grab an object from
the ground. Observe carefully at what point the wheel-
chair starts tipping over and remember that point well.
ATTENTION
(1) Never grab obstacles situated behind your wheel-
chair while facing it backwards - DANGER OF FLIP-
PING OVER! Turn your wheelchair around first and
approach the obstacle from a frontal or lateral po-
sition.
ATTENTION
Before reaching for objects situated next to or in
front of your wheelchair, secure it against rolling
away! Do not lean out too far.
�PLEASE NOTE
You are on the safe side if you are using a gripping
aid.
(2) When leaning out to one of the wheelchair’s sides,
please hold on to the opposite side and try to shift your
weight as little as possible.
(3) If you have to lean forwards, NEVER put ANY weight
on the leg support - DANGER OF FLIPPING OVER! Turn
thecastersforwardsforarmerstand.
If possible, place both feet on the ground and as far
away from yourself as possible. Here, too, you are ad-
vised to use a gripping aid. Your medical supply store
will be glad to advise you.

2.5 Overcoming Obstacles
Avoid using staircases! Whenever possible, please
use ramps or lifts to overcome any kind of height dif-
ferences.
ATTENTION
(1) NEVER TACKLE STAIRCASES ALONE.
ATTENTION
(2) If you do have to use a staircase, only do so with
the help of two experienced assistants. Make sure
the anti-tipper is deactivated and keep in mind that
the wheelchair may only be touched on metal parts
which are firmly screwed onto the frame.
ATTENTION
(3) The plastic caps on the push handles may come
off under unfavourable circumstances (heat, mois-
ture, extreme straining, etc.). Please inform your as-
sistants about this danger.
ATTENTION
(3) NEVER pull (or let alone carry!) the wheelchair
over an obstacle holding on to the extendible push
handles.
ATTENTION
The same goes for removable leg supports, foldable
side parts and/or foot rests.
ATTENTION
NEVER use escalators - not even with assistants!!!
Shopping malls or any public buildings with escala-
tors always provide lifts as well.

Jump beta

(2)
ATTENTION
Do not approach offsets (such as curbs) at a fast
pace - DANGER OF TIPPING!
ATTENTION
(1) As a general rule, you have to deactivate your an-
ti-tipper before tackling offsets or using lifts or lift-
ing ramps. Otherwise you may be unable to manoeu-
vre.
(2) In order to overcome curb offsets, your assistant
should tip you backwards slightly (tipping aid), lift
the casters above the curb and then carefully roll the
wheelchair over via the rear wheels. The anti-tipper
must be deactivated.
(3) To ride off a curb offset, please proceed analogi-
cally.
ATTENTION
The casters must remain in the air until the rear
wheels have passed the offset. UNDER NO CIRCUM-
STANCES should you have the casters touch the
ground first - DANGER OF TURNING OVER.
(4) Experienced users may be able to overcome off-
sets without an assistant using the so-called ‘tilting’
method (cf. below).
ATTENTION
This manoeuvre requires a lot of practise and skill
on the part of the user!
• Carefully approach the curb in a 90°-angle
and slightly tilt the chair backwards until the
casters no longer touch the ground.
• With the casters in the air, move them across
the offset and approach the curb as closely as
possible.
• Now drive across the curb with your upper
body leaned forwards as far as you can.

User Manual for sport frame and swing-away frame

2.6 Locking Brake
ATTENTION
The knee-lever brake is a locking brake and NOT sui-
table for braking while driving. At a fast pace (es-
pecially on downgrade slopes), it could bring the
wheelchair to an abrupt stop, which might cause
you to fall out. With a driving brake, such as a drum
brake, on the other hand, gradual deceleration is
possible.
ATTENTION
Before any (longer) trip, make sure that...
• the tyre air pressure is correct (cf. indica-
tions on tyre covers),
• the braking bolt is in good condition,
• that the cable pulls (if present) are in good
condition.
ATTENTION
Cable pulls need a lot of maintenance! The clamp
screws on the Bowden cable in particular need to
be checked and readjusted regularly. These cable
pulls are used for:
• drum brakes,
• cable brakes (integrated in the side parts),
• assistant brake,
• single-hand brake.
ATTENTION
The recoil blocking is effective on slopes with an in-
clination of max. 6% and with a maximum payload
(user incl. seat shell and the like) of max. 90 kg.
ATTENTION
Please clean the braking bolt from dirt and fluff re-
gularly.
ATTENTION
Please keep in mind that dirt, moisture, ice, snow,
mud, etc. may inhibit the function of the locking
brake considerably.
ATTENTION
Do not conduct any reparations of the locking brake
yourself. Please turn to your rehab technician!
ATTENTION
Upon making any changes concerning the re-
ar wheels (position in the perforated plate, tyre
change, etc.), please check the function of the lo-
cking brake and readjust if necessary.
2.7 Anti-tipper
ATTENTION
We recommend that young and inexperienced
wheelchair users use the anti-tipper whenever pos-
sible.
�PLEASE NOTE
All our wheelchair models can be subsequently
equipped with anti-tippers at any time.
(1) In order to activate the anti-tipper without an as-
sistant, rst secure the wheelchair against rolling
away. Then carefully reach backwards without leaning
out too far and push the anti-tipper down and turn it
by 180° until it snaps into the guide slot. If possible,
please hold on to the rear wheel/grip-tyre during this
procedure.
ATTENTION
(2) Deactivate the anti-tipper before overcoming off-
sets or using lifts and lifting ramps.

2.8 Angle-Adjustable Back, Seat Tilt
ATTENTION
(1) For wheelchairs with a back adjustable in angle
or a seat tilt, the anti-tipper must be activated for
angle-adjustments above 90°!
ATTENTION
For active driving, the back or seat tilt must ALWAYS
be in upright position (90°)!
When changing the back angle or seat tilt, please

support or the like.
ATTENTION
NEVER activate the seat tilt or back angle adjust-
ment while driving!
(2) For cases of amputated or elevated legs, we rec-
ommend using a wheel base extension to improve the
wheelchair’s stability when leaning backwards. At the
very least, however, the anti-tipper must be activated.
ATTENTION
A wheel base extension does NOT replace the an-
ti-tipper!
2.9 Casters
ATTENTION
If the casters are adjusted incorrectly or the wheel-
chair is riding at too high a pace (especially on down-
grade slopes), the casters may judder and lead the
wheelchair to a dangerous, abrupt halt.
�PLEASE NOTE
Regularly clean the casters’ axes and axis covers
from dirt and uff.
INFORMATION
After making any changes affecting the rear wheels,
the casters must be readjusted. Please have this
done by an experienced rehab-technician.
�PLEASE NOTE
(3) When transferring into or out of the wheelchair,
turn the casters forwards in order to improve stabili-
ty. You can do this by briey riding forwards.

2.10 Folding and Unfolding
ATTENTION
Please mind the DANGER OF BRUISING your ngers
due to the cross-brace when folding or unfolding
Jump.
ATTENTION
Before putting your wheelchair into service again,
make sure that all components that have been re-
moved are now rmly locked, attached, or screwed
on. This is of particular importance for the quick-re-
lease axles and rear wheels!
ATTENTION
(1) Upon unfolding/opening the wheelchair (e.g. af-
ter transportation etc.), please make sure that the
cross-braces have rmly snapped into the trestles.
Otherwise the wheelchair is not functional.
ATTENTION
(2) If your Jump is equipped with a stabilising bar
on the back, it, too, must be rmly snapped in and
locked before putting the wheelchair into service.
The same holds analogically for
the moulded back,
the rm seat plate SeatFix, and
the folding side parts.
Before putting the wheelchair into service, above
components must be rmly attached and/or locked/
screwed on.

2.11 Loading and Transportation
When transporting your wheelchair in a motor vehicle,
please mind the following:
• fold the anti-tipper inwards (if present).
• remove the push handle(s) (if present).
• If possible, remove the moulded back and
fold the back onto the seat.
• If possible, fold the wheelchair and keep it
safelyinplaceusingxatingfoldingtape.
• loosen the locking brakes and remove the rear
wheels.
• secure the wheelchair inside the vehicle using
tension belts.
• The tension belts may only be attached to the
rmframe.Footrest,sideparts,backorseat
are not suitable for this purpose.
• Store all detached wheelchair components in
a safe place inside the vehicle so they cannot
injure anyone in the event of abrupt braking.
ATTENTION
There is danger of injury due to loose objects spin-
ning around in the vehicle, such as leg rests, seat
plates, wheels, sticks, bags, etc.
Please turn to the manufacturer of your motor vehicle
for information on safe securing of the wheelchair with
lash loops or other suitable safety precautions in your
vehicle.
2.11.1 Transportation in Public Transport
According to the EG directive 2001/85/EG, every ve-
hicle of public transport (buses, trams, etc.) must pro-
vide a space for wheelchairs.
ATTENTION
This space is meant for EMPTY wheelchairs only.
ATTENTION
Place the wheelchair on the designated space with
the back facing in driving direction, so both the back
and one of the side parts rmly rest on the borders
of the wheelchair area.
In the event of an accident, the wheelchair must
not slip away.
Lock the locking brake.
Get out of the wheelchair while on the vehicle and
use the seat next to the wheelchair area pro-
vided for this purpose.
If present, please use the vehicle’s safety belts!
Have someone help you transfer in and out of the pub-
lic vehicle
• so you do not get caught in the gap between
door and platform,
• so you do not panic,
• so your assistant can help you claim the wheel-
chair space you are entitled to on the vehicle if
necessary,
• so your assistant can help you transfer onto a
seatandxateyourwheelchair.
2.11.2 Transportation in a Passenger Car
Due to their purpose and light-weight construction,
wheelchairs can never provide your with the stable
characteristicsofarmlybuilt-incarseat.
ATTENTION
This is why we do NOT recommend using a wheel-
chair as a seat in a passenger car.
READ
Please read our information brochure „Crash Test
ISO 7176-19“ where we describe the risk factors
and norms of ISO 7176-19 in detail.
ATTENTION
The only wheelchair models that may be used as a
seat in a passenger car are those that have passed
the crash test according to ISO 7176-19.
Our wheelchair models that have been successfully
tested are designated with this international anchor
symbol on their type plate.
On the order sheets, they
are additionally highlighted
with our “Crash-Test” but-
ton.
If in doubt, please turn to
your manufacturer or con-
sult www.sorgrollstuhltech-
