7.4. Driving the wheelchair
•
Sit in your Bischoff & Bischoff wheelchair. Make sure that you sit as
far back as possible.
•
Propulsion is achieved using the handrims on the drive wheels.
Place your hands on the handrims using your thumbs and bent
index fingers.
•
From this position, push the wheelchair with both hands.
•
Turning right: hold the right handrim tight and only push with the
left one
•
Turning left: push in the opposite way
•
Turning on the spot: push the handrims in opposite directions at
the same time
•
Braking: reduce the speed of the handrims with your hands.
Carry out the first test drives carefully, until you have got used to
the wheelchair and its driving characteristics. Wheelchairs only have
limited security against tipping over and slipping. Take extra care when
braking, starting off or turning on slopes. Extended leaning out of the
wheelchair also increases the risk of tipping over. Tipping protection
reduces this risk. In order to go up or down obstacles more easily, the
attendant can tip the wheelchair (see Chapter 6.8.4).
8. Accessories
8.1. Lap belt (optional)
You can order a lap belt as an option and this will secure users who
do not have the required stability in the wheelchair.
This is fitted to the frame of the wheelchair backrest with the
sideguard temporarily removed.
•
Wrap the open end of the belt once round the frame tube of the
back section and then fix it with the buckle
•
Guide this through the backrest on both sides. You can also adjust

the length of the belt using the buckle. Adjust the belt length so
that the belt is taut but does not pinch
•
Use the fastening clip to open and close the belt.
8.2. Therapy table (optional)
The table is simply pushed into the armrest from the front. To
remove the therapy table, simply pull it back out.
8.3. Infusion/oxygen bottle
holder (optional)
The infusion/oxygen bottle holder is fixed on the backrest tube of
your wheelchair.
Warning - with increased load from the oxygen bottles, the risk of
your wheelchair tipping over backwards will also increase. We strongly
recommend the use of anti-tip wheels.
Please note that reflectors must not be covered.
Warning - with increased load in the bag,
the risk of your wheelchair tipping over
backwards will also increase. We strongly
recommend the use of anti-tip wheels.
