Transport and collapsing
For transport in a personal vehicle or simply to make
space, the backrest can be folded down. It then takes up
very little space and can be easily stored.
In addition, the drive wheels can be easily taken off.
Important! The wheelchair is not approved as a chair in
vehicles such as a transport vehicle for the disabled!
Collapsing
Remove the seat and back cushions. Simply pull the
cushion off. Pull the locking pin on the back of the back-
rest out. You can now fold the backrest down.
Putting the wheels on
Adjusting the brakes
Adjustments to the brake should be performed by trained
professionals. If you have sufficient experience, you can
also perform this work yourself.
Brake adjustment
Push the brakes into the correct position. Then screw the
screws back in securely and test the function. You should
not be able to push the wheelchair when the brakes are
activated.
