Checking of stair slope
Before a stair is driven upon, the respective gradient has to be checked and may not
exceed 35°. When measuring the gradient with the special measuring tool delivered along
with the
Stairmax
, the indicator has to remain within the green coloured area of the
display. Steeper stairs (indicator is in yellow or red area) are not safe to be driven upon
and the
Stairmax
may not be used in these cases.
Connecting the wheelchair to the
Stairmax
In order to be able to connect the wheelchair to the
Stairmax
the adapter must be in the
upper position and the red control lever must not be in closed position. This unlocks the
locking brackets for the wheelchair backrest and the adapter holder profiles are in the right
position to connect to the adaptation pipes of the wheelchair. Only in this position it is
possible to attach the wheelchair.
