weight and minimize storage space.

Using The Stepper Tube

An attendant can use the stepper

tube to raise the front castors

(when mounting a kerb for

example).

To use, push down on the stepper

tube with a foot. Do not raise the

front castors by pushing down on

the push handles as this could

result in damage to the wheelchair

(as shown by the photo on the

right).

To mount a kerb. Approach the kerb head on. Then the attendant

uses the stepper tube to raise the front castors, and lowers the front

castors on the raised kerb. Finally the attendant should push the

wheelchair forward, lifting it up slightly to mount the kerb if required.

To go down a kerb. Line up the front castors with the edge of the

kerb. The attendant uses the stepper tube to raise the front castors

and tip the user slightly back. Keeping the castors raised, slowly lower

the wheelchair down the kerb.

Brake Operation

Parking Brakes

To apply the parking brakes, push the handle on the brake unit until

locked in place. To release the brake, push the handle in the

opposite direction. The brakes should always be applied when the

wheelchair is stationary.

When stationary, apply the

parking brakes as described

above.

Cable Brakes

On the transit model, the

attendant pushing the wheelchair

may use cable-operated brakes

to slow the wheelchair.

To apply the brakes, squeeze the

large lever on the push handles

and the brakes will be applied.

A locking feature is available for

the cable brakes. Squeeze the

large lever until the brake clicks

at least once. You can now

release the lever and the brake

will still apply. To release the

brake press the small lever (as

shown)

Operation And Propulsion

Before Using the Wheelchair read the safety notices

below:

Use slow speeds on gradients. Do not exceed the maximum

gradient stated.

The wheelchair is only suitable for single occupancy.

Keep your feet on the footplates when moving. Do

not stand on the footplates.

Do not use escalators.

Do not reverse down a gradient

Maintain proper balance at all times. Users should

not move their centre of gravity out of the seating

area.

Do not reach for items further than your arm will

extend.

Be aware of hazards in your environment, such as

narrow doorways, steps, household appliances,

children’s toys, etc.

We recommend you consult your healthcare

professional for advice about transferring to and

from the wheelchair. The parking brakes should

always be applied when transferring.

Ensure that fingers and objects do not get caught in

the spokes of the rear wheels.

The transit wheelchair can only be propelled by an attendant. The

attendant should push the wheelchair from behind using the handgrips,

and following the safety advice above.

The self propel wheelchair can be propelled by an attendant (as directed

above) or the wheelchair user. The user can propel themselves by

pushing on the handrims attached to the side of the rear wheels, and

slow themselves down by applying pressure to the handrims.

When stationary the brakes should always be applied.

Using The Lap Belt

The lap belt may be fitted to restrain the wheelchair occupant during

normal use. Such lap belts are not to be used as a seat belt in a motor

vehicle. The wheelchair is should not be used as a seat in a motor

vehicle (e.g. cars, buses, trains, etc).

When fastened, the lap belt should be tight around the user’s pelvis

without causing discomfort or undue pressure. This will help keep the

user’s hips and pelvis towards the back of the wheelchair. Use the tri-

glides (shown) to adjust the length of the lap belt. The length of the lap

belt should be checked each time the belt is used.

There is a risk of suffocation from users ‘submarining’ (where they

slide down the chair until the lap belt is around the neck area). To

reduce the risk of this, ensure that the lap belt is used under

supervision and is used as instructed.

The lap belt may not be suitable for all users of wheelchairs. Seek

professional medical advice before using the lap belt.

Powerpack Installation

This wheelchair is suitable for some retrofit

powerpacks, such as the PowerStroll. A

suggested configuration is shown left.

Note this is a suggestion, and the mounting

position will need adapting to be suitable for

the user and the powerpack used. For more

information about the PowerStroll contact

your Drive DeVilbiss dealer or visit

www.drivedevilbiss.co.uk for more details.
