· Do not lift the casters using the push rings while the power is on. Depending
on the circumstances, there is a danger of losing balance and falling over
when the power assist function is activated. Always turn off the power before
lifting the casters.
· Push rings tend to slip when operated with wet hands or in rainy weather.
Depending on the circumstances, you may lose your grip on the push ring,
and it may lead to a crash.

adjustments.
· "Standard length" is the length of the anti-tip bar which is adjusted
to stop lifting at 5 to 10 cm from the ground surface when the ca-
sters are lifted.
· When going over high curbs with support, it is necessary to shor-
ten the anti-tip bar. Even in such cases, remember to return the bar
to the standard length immediately.
