Important Notes And Precautions Concerning The Use Of The Twist - Klaxon TWIST Gebrauchsanleitung

13. IMPORTANT NOTES AND PRECAUTIONS CONCERNING THE USE OF THE TWIST

Where and how to use the TWIST
In all its configurations, the TWIST is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, but not for off-road use. It is,
however, possible to negotiate short off-road routes as long as the terrain is dry, whether it is paved or on grass.
On the other hand, it is not possible to ride on terrain with significant unevenness, mud or puddles of water.
Do not use the TWIST on off-road routes with major irregularities.
Do not use the TWIST on sandy and muddy off-road tracks.
Do not drive the TWIST over puddles with a water level higher than the height of the tyre
itself. The maximum permitted height is up to the lower part of the wheel casing on the
TWIST (Figure 106).
In off-road use it is recommended to always use the handlebar accessory installed.
Always drive over puddles at low speed, taking care that the water level does not exceed
the one indicated in the previous point. By low speed is meant the lowest possible speed.
The electronic brake only works when the TWIST is installed at the front with or without the
handlebar equipped.
The mechanical brake only works when the TWIST is installed at the front and with the
handlebar equipped.
When the TWIST is installed at the rear, the wheelchair cannot be slowed down or braked
using the Controller. When the TWIST is rear-installed, braking must be performed by acting
on the manual wheelchair by actively blocking its movement. It is also necessary to act on
the manual wheelchair to keep it stationary in position.
The TWIST installed at the rear does not allow the front castor wheels of the wheelchair to
be lifted mechanically off the ground. For this reason, the use of the rear-installed TWIST is
recommended on terrain with no bumps or small steps that could block the front wheels of
the wheelchair, causing the wheelchair to catapult the passenger dangerously forward. For
use on uneven terrain and therefore generally in the outdoors, link the TWIST at the front
(with or without handlebars).
