TRASPORT OF THE WHEELCHAIR
There is no single best way to load the wheelchair into a vehicle. Factors include the type and degree of the
occupant’
s disability (his/her ability to control his/her upper body, arm, and hand movements), physical
strength (the operation may be too difficult for an older person or a child) and the type of vehicle that will be used. It should be clear that all these factors are too many to indicate a single precise procedure to fit all
cases, therefore this information should be taken as general advice.
Perform all car loading activities with extreme care and only after receiving instruction from specialist service personnel at our authorised dealers. If these procedures seem to be unsafe
or difficult, we recommend asking an assistant for help.
Never transport an occupant sitting on the wheelchair in a vehicle unless the wheelchair is certified for the purpose according to the requirements of ISO 7176-19:2008.
If the occupant must be transported while seated on the wheelchair, remember that the wheelchairs are not supplied with seatbelts. Any safety belts for vehicle transport must be installed
only by companies that are specialised in vehicle transformations.
TRASPORT OF THE OCCUPIED WHEELCHAIR
Always make sure the wheelchair is suitable to transporting the user in a vehicle. The symbols on the product label indicate if the wheelchair is or not crash
tested and, accordingly, if it can be used for the transport of the user on a motor vehicle.
TRANSPORT WITH AN ASSSITANT
In cases where the physical limitations of the occupant prevent him/her from moving and loading the wheelchair into the car on his/her own, the help of an assistant will be required.
The lightness and foldability of this model are very important because they enable the wheelchair to be moved easily even by persons with limited physical strength. Remove all removable parts.
Release the brakes and remove the rear wheels. Fold the wheelchair (seat and/or backrest).
Take hold of the chair with two hands on the two fixed parts of the frame to balance the weight of the wheelchair and make it easier to lift.
Load the wheelchair into the car and then the rear wheels.
Thanks to its reduced encumbrance, the wheelchair can be loaded in the boot of the car or between the front and rear seats.
In larger means of transport, you can load the wheelchair without reducing its encumbrance.
