6 Pushing the wheelchair by hand
The motors of the wheelchair are equipped with automatic brakes, preventing that the wheelchair
starts rolling out of control when the joystick box is switched off. When pushing the wheelchair, the
magnetic brakes must be disengaged.
6.1 Manually disengaging conventional motors
Danger of the vehicle running away!
• When the motors are disengaged (for push operation), the electromagnetic motor brakes are
deactivated! When the vehicle is parked, the levers for engaging and disengaging the motors
must without fail be locked firmly into the "DRIVE" position (electromagnetic motor brakes
activated)!
The lever for disengaging the motors is on the rear right side on the wheelchair chassis.
Disengaging motors:
• Switch off remote.
• Pull the locking pin (1) downwards. Pull the
engaging lever (2) to the rear. The motors are now
disengaged.
Re-engaging motors
• Push the engaging lever (1) forwards. The motors
are now re-engaged.
