3.4 Climbing steps

time. Move the balance position backwards and raise the foot rest so that it doesn't hit the step.
Drive the wheelchair’s front wheels onto the step.

wheelchair onto the step. Finally, move the balance to even ground position. The same driving
method can be used to overcome greater obstacles.
