Sideguards (continued)
Side-guard with clothes protector
The clothes protector prevents clothes getting dirty from spray
water, (Fig. 6.9.5).
You can set the position in relation to the rear wheel by moving
the sideguard.
To do this, remove the screws (1 and 2).
After setting to the desired position, re-tighten the screws (see
the page on torque).
WARNING!
Neither the sideguards nor the armrests are to be used for lifting
or carrying the wheelchair.
6.10 Push handles
Height-adjustable push handles
These handles are secured with pins to prevent them from
sliding out unintentionally. By releasing the tension lever (1) the
height of the push handles (2) can be set individually. If the
lever is moved, listen to make sure that it clicks into place. The
push handle can easily be set to the desired position. The nut
on the tension lever determines how tightly the push handles
are clamped into place. If the nut is loose after adjusting the
tension lever, the push handle will also be too loose. Turn the
push handle from side to side before use to make sure that it is
clamped into place securely. After adjusting handle height,
always clamp the tension lever (1) securely into place. If the
lever is not secure, injuries could result when ascending stairs.
(Fig. 6.10.1).
CAUTION!
If the height-adjustable push handles are not fitted properly,
there is a risk that these will develop "play" or that they move
out of position. Please make sure that the relevant screws are
tightened correctly.
Folding push-handles
If the folding push handles are not required, they can be flipped
downwards by pushing the button (1). When they are required
again, flip the push handles up, until they click into place. (Fig.
6.10.2).
