4.3.1 RELEASING
Release the safety lug (
figure 1a
) and move the retention lever into the
rear position (
figure 1b
).
Pivot the handle unit carefully towards the wheelchair until the
wheelchair reaches the ground and the handle unit is in a vertical
position. Then undo the manual bolts and pull both retention blocks to
the side out of the wheelchair backrest.
NOTE
Perform this procedure only on horizontal ground, well
away from the stairs.
4.4 USING THE TRACKED STAIRCLIMBER ON LEVEL
SURFACES
4.4.1 MOVING ON LEVEL SURFACES
In order to move the wheelchair on the tracked stairclimber or to turn
the combination on landings, push the handle unit slightly downwards
(
figure 1
).
This raises the stairclimber tracks so that the tracked stairclimber can be
shifted on the rear left-hand and right-hand side wheel units.
4.4.2 BASE UNIT FUNCTIONS
The following controls are located on the rear side of the base unit:
Combined ON/OFF, UP/DOWN switch
Key switch
Speed selector switch
It is possible to operate the base unit without the handle unit. This mode of operation is provided exclusively for
loading the base unit and for service activities.
The base unit is operated using the ON/OFF button. After switching on, the base unit is automatically set to
Move UP mode. Pressing the ON/OFF button again switches the unit to the Move DOWN mode. Pressing the
ON/OFF button for a longer period switches the unit off.
Use the speed selector switch to choose between one of three speed settings.
