26.3 Securing the product in a car
(without a person)
To reduce the weight, individual
components, such as the drive wheels for
example, can be removed from the product
and stored separately. The product and all
associated components must be secured
during transport so that they are not damaged
(e.g. by falling over) and do not become a
hazard to persons or other products. Check
with your car dealer before transport about the
risk-free securing using the existing fitted
lashing rings or other securing devices.
Suitable brackets are mostly available in the
car and are described in the operating manual
of the vehicle.
When the product is in the transport vehicle,
you or your accompanying person should
proceed as follows:
1. Secure and safely stow any components
from the product which have been
previously removed.
2. Bags and other objects not belonging to
the product which are on or in the product,
must be removed and securely stowed.
3. Secure the product with lashing straps. To
do this, use the existing securing devices
in the car. After securing, the product not
move or slip any more.
The lashing straps used to secure the
product in the transport vehicle may only be
fitted to the components of the car provided for
that purpose and onto the frame of the product.
Do not transport the product on the front
passenger seat. The product could slip and
impede the driver.
26.4 Passenger transport over
obstacles in the product
If the product with its user needs to be
transported over an obstacle and there are
suitable facilities such as a ramp or a lift
available, then these should be used. If such
facilities are not available, then the obstacle is
to be overcome by being carried by two
helpers. When carrying the product, it may not
be lifted by the side sections, the drive wheels
or the footrests. We recommend holding the
product on the frame and the back cross bar to
carry it.
27 Malfunctions
In the event of any malfunctions which cannot
be solved by yourself based on the operating
instructions included in the scope of delivery,
please contact your rehabilitation specialist
retailer or PRO ACTIV directly.
Malfunctions must be solved before any
further use or, if they occur during the journey,
this must be interrupted immediately.
28 Cleaning and care
Regular cleaning of the product is prescribed
to prevent the components becoming clogged
up due to dirt. In particular, the product should
be carefully cleaned after every major use.
To avoid corrosion and therefore malfunctions
or breakages of components, the product may
not be exposed to any aggressive
environmental influences. If this cannot be
avoided, the product should be cleaned
immediately after such use and moving parts
need to be greased. Regular cleaning prevents
corrosion and increased wear.
In case the product becomes wet when using,
dry it after use.
Clean the quick release axles of the drive
and caster wheels as well as the ball bearings
and grease these with a little lubricating oil with
high corrosion protection properties (e.g.
Neoval MTO 300) approx. every 8 weeks in
order to guarantee the reliable functioning
properties.
