Invacare® TDX® SP2 Series
6 Usage
6.1 Pushing the Mobility Device in Freewheel
Mode
The motors of the mobility device are equipped with motor
locks, which prevent the mobility device from rolling when
the remote is switched off. When pushing the mobility
device manually while freewheeling, the motor locks must
be disengaged.
Pushing the mobility device by hand may require
more physical force than expected (more than 100
N). The necessary force nevertheless complies with
the requirements of RESNA Section 14.
The intended use of the freewheel mode is to
maneuver the mobility device over short distances.
The push handles or push bars support this function,
but be aware that there might be some interference
between the feet of the assistant and the rear part
of the mobility device.
