Swivelling The Side Panels Back (Fig. 25); Folding The Foot Plates Up (Fig. 26); Swivelling Away And Detaching The Leg Supports (Fig. 27); Pushing And Braking - Dietz Caneo E Gebrauchsanweisung

Swivelling the side panels back (Abb. 25)
To swivel up, press the detent lever and pull the side panel upwards.
The arm rest engages automatically on swivelling back.
This engagement is clearly audible.
Folding the foot plates up (Abb. 26)
Fold the foot plates up to make entering and exiting easier.
The foot plates must be folded up to save space when folding the wheelchair
together.
Swivelling away and detaching the leg supports (Abb. 27)
To remove the leg supports, first fold the foot plates up.
Now actuate the locking mechanism (orange) and swivel the leg support
outwards.
The leg support can now be detached upwards.
Carry the procedure out in the opposite sequence during assembly.
When the leg support is swivelled forwards, it can be clearly heard to engage.

Pushing and braking

Pushing and braking by an accompanying person

The accompanying person propels the wheelchair by pushing on the intended
pushing handles.
Important!
In models without an optional drum brake, the accompanying
person must be physically and mentally able to brake the
wheelchair by using his own strength. The locking brake is then
available as a parking brake.
The accompanying person can use an optional drum brake as a service and
locking brake. This is particularly advantageous when moving on slopes.
Movement can then be dosed and braked by applying the brake levers more
or less extensively subject to requirements. In addition, the drum brake can
also be used as a parking brake.
