| Multifunctional wheelchair
Frontal transfer:
•
Move the wheelchair as close as possible to the front of the seat.
•
Secure the wheelchair by applying the parking brake.
•
If you are transferring from another wheelchair or indoor frame,
secure these by applying the parking brakes.
•
Flip the footrests up.
•
Now slide onto the seat surface by rotating your body. Please make
sure that you sit as far back in the seat as possible.
•
Then flip the footrests back down and put your feet on them.
7.2. Propulsion
Propulsion is achieved using the handrims on the drive wheels, as long
as it is not being pushed by an attendant. Carry out the first test drives
carefully, until you have got used to the wheelchair and its driving
characteristics. Wheelchairs only have limited security against tipping
over and slipping.
Take extra care when braking, starting off or turning on slopes. Extended
leaning out of the wheelchair also increases the risk of tipping over. For
greater safety, all wheelchairs are fitted with a lap belt (not standard).
In order to be able to go up or down obstacles more easily, the
attendant has the option of lining the wheelchair up at right angles to
the obstacle by pressing their foot on the tipping aid.
In accordance with StVZO 66/1 of 01.01.1981, manual wheelchairs
which are used on public roads (on pavements too) require lights which

Never stand on the footplate and when swinging it
away, there is a risk of tipping over!
Before transferring on or off the wheelchair apply
the parking brake. You must only drive outside your
home if you have sufficient driving experience.
Where possible, you should have an attendant.

are permanently fitted.
This consists of (passive):
•
two red reflectors at the back.
•
Reflectors in the spokes of the drive wheels.
If the wheelchair is used after dark, then in addition, lights are required
(active):
The functionality of lights must be guaranteed by a circuit which is
independent of the drive system (batteries).
7.3. Going up or down stairs or a
high step
Only the frame and the push handles must be used
as grip points.
The helpers only grip on the firmly fixed frame parts (Fig. 24). In order
to go up stairs, the rear helper pulls the wheelchair backwards up the
steps by holding onto firmly-mounted handles. The lower helper grips
on the front frame tubes and stabilises the wheelchair. When doing
this he pushes the drive wheels of the wheelchair onto the steps.
When descending, the lower helper brakes the chair by pressing
the wheelchair straight into the steps. The upper helper holds the
wheelchair by the push handles, keeps it secure and holds it in the
right position. The wheelchair should roll down step by step.
Two attendants must help with obstacles and stairs
with more than three steps.
