How to use

To move independently, grip the rear driving rims and push forward or backward. For attendant operation, use the rear push handles to guide the user safely.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 39 cm seat width is appropriate for the user's body measurements.
• Ensure the 125 kg weight capacity meets the user's requirements.
• Check if the overall width of 59 cm fits through the doorways in your home or workplace.
• Consider the need for additional cushions if the user requires extended periods of sitting.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the brakes and ensure the anti-tip wheels are correctly adjusted for the user's center of gravity. Keep the frame clean and dry to maintain its structural integrity, and periodically check that all folding mechanisms are free of debris for smooth operation.
