L
Engage all parking brakes in addition to the electromagnetic brake of the wheelchair.
L
Loose parts taken from the wheelchair must be stowed securely.
For transportation by public vehicles for disabled persons you should request information from the
organisation concerned about compliance with the currently applicable prescriptions and norms for
such transport.
For transportation in other vehicles (airplanes, buses, ships, trams, trains, etc.) you should consult the
operator concerned about whether you and your wheelchair could be safely transported according to
the relevant rules and norms.
L
We do not accept any liability for damage and/or injuries resulting from transportation by third
parties. Transportation is at your own risk.
If you have further questions about transportation, kindly consult your specialist dealer.
He/she shall gladly assist you further.
USING RAMPS
If you are considering ramps for overcoming obstacles, kindly note the following:
For your own safety you should drive on ramps at the slowest possible speed. If the wheelchair has
optional adjustment functions, ensure that
1. the back has been set to upright (if there is one)
2. the angled seat has been set to horizontal (if there is one)
3. the leg supports have been set so that no collision can occur while passing the obstacle.
L
The manufacturer can accept no liability for any damage or injury that may arise from the
adjustment functions being extended when being used on a ramp.
If another person is pushing you, note that the large weight of the electric wheelchair exerts
appreciable reverse forces.
If your helper does not have the strength to push the wheelchair up the ramp, you must immediately
secure it by engaging the motor adjustment (Notstop).
L
Observe the instructions on the maximum load of the ramps used.
L
Use a restraining safety belt to secure yourself in your wheelchair.
L
We do not accept any liability for injury or damage caused by an improper choice of ramps.
ACCESSORIES
!
INDIVIDUAL HEADREST (L55)
The standard backrest can be enhanced by an individually adjustable head support supplied by us.
This comprises a cushioned headrest which can be set in various positions by means of a gearwheel
(see diagram).
The receptacle screwed in the upper third of the back, can be fixed to the centre of the back for
inserting the headrest. The height of the headrest can be adjusted and then tightened at the desired
height. The holes required for fixing the headrest have already been drilled in the back unit.
