In case there should appear disturbances in the wheelchair's functionality, transporting it etc., one
might want to have it towed. To make this possible, the release of brakes needs to be switched on.
To switch them on, the engine's red brake release levers (2 pieces) on the axles have to be turned
backwards to the wheelchair's drive direction. This means that the front axle's brake release lever
has to be pulled towards the chair and the rear axle’s lever away from the chair. If the brakes are
released, the wheelchair cannot be driven. The steering lever has to be switched off while towing.
During tow, it is forbidden to sit in the wheelchair.
5 TRANSPORTATION OF THE WHEELCHAIR
The wheelchair can be placed in a vehicle with the help of a ramp or chair lifting device.
Every corner of the wheelchair has attachment hoops (1) to which the safety belts are attached
during transportation. When attaching the wheelchair in the car, damaging the electric cables has to
be avoided. During transportation, the brakes are to be locked on and that the steering center is to
be well-protected.
It is strictly forbidden to sit in the wheelchair during transportation. Only car seats can be used.
If transporting the wheelchair on a plane, ship, train or by some other means of transportation,
contact the transportation provider beforehand to receive useful instructions from them.
