Negotiating obstacles, stairs
Figures 18 and 19
If the wheelchair is being lifted up/
down stairs with the user sitting in it, the
recommended lifting points should be used.
These are marked on the product.
The lifting points are the pushing handles
and the leg supports.
Do not lift the wheelchair by the
armrests!
NB For height adjustable pushing handles,
ensure that the handle is locked before
lifting.
In order for assistants to have a better
lifting position they can alternatively lift
from each side of the chair.
Negotiating obstacles, the kerb
Figure 20
When negotiating the kerb etc., swing the
anti-tip stabiliser up. Then place one foot
on the tipping bar whilst steering with the
pushing handles.
Steep terrain
For frequent use in undulating terrain, we
recommend that a separate brake be fitted
for the assistant.
