Using the Stepper Tube

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.

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.

Warning: When going down a kerb, the front castors must be raised to

prevent the user from falling out. The above are only recommendations and

may not be suitable for all events.

Disassembly and Folding

Before folding, remove any quick release components if required. The

Bariatric Transport Chair has been designed with an easy fold mechanism. To

fold the wheelchair, ensure that the leg rests are removed, or in the forward

position with the footplates flipped up. Holding the front and rear edge of the

seat sling, pull the seat in an upward motion. The wheelchair will naturally fold

up.

Please note though that the wheelchair may be too heavy for some users to

lift. Also be sure to adopt the latest health and safety recommendations

when lifting the wheelchair.

Maintenance and Tyre Pressure

The Bariatric Transport Chair is installed with puncture proof solid tyres that

will not require inflation.

Proper care and maintenance is important in order to keep your wheelchair in

good working order. Be

sure that your chair is in proper working order at all

times. A qualified dealer or repair centre should be

consulted for periodic

inspections and repairs:

1. At least once a week, wipe down the frame using a

clean soft cloth. If the

chair is exposed to moisture,

dry the chair immediately. The metal parts of

the chair should be polished once a month with an auto

wax.

2. Clean the upholstery with a mild soap solution,

rinse and wipe dry. Worn or

torn upholstery should be replaced promptly as it may not support your

body weight.

3. Inspect the wheels at least once a month.

Correct any side play by

loosening the lock nut on the axle then tighten the axle just enough to

remove anyplay.

4. Solid tyres require limited upkeep, but need to be cleaned periodically

with a damp cloth.

Solid tyres need to be replaced if they become cracked

or severely worn.
