4.34.1 Dismounting the kerb with a rear wheel drive chair
WARNING!
Reverse the chair slowly and carefully until both rear
wheels are on the edge of the kerb, again in a 90° position
to the kerb.
Reverse as slowly as possible off the kerb with the rear
wheels. You will feel more secure if you can lean forward,
but if you can’t, don’t worry, the wheelchair is extremely
stable. As long as you stay within its limitation, you will
be quite safe.
The front of the chair will naturally follow down the kerb
as you continue to drive slowly backwards.
We recommend to use the lap strap to feel more secure during
declining the kerb.
4.34.2 Dismounting the kerb with a front (FWD) or mid
wheel drive (MWD) chair
WARNING!
Move the chair slowly and carefully in a forward direction
until both front wheels are on the edge of the kerb, again in
a 90° position to the kerb. (Fig 4.6 )
Drive as slowly as possible off the kerb with the drive
wheels. Don’t stop the chair during declining the kerb.
You will feel more secure if you can lean backwards, but if
you can’t, don’t worry, the wheelchair is extremely stable.
As long as you stay within its limitation, you will be quite
safe.
The rear of the chair will naturally follow down the kerb as
you continue to drive slowly forwards.
All powered seating options need to be in home position.
Your powered legrests may need to be adjusted to give
enough clearance to mount or dismount the kerb.
We recommend to use the lap strap to feel more secure
during declining the kerb. For extra protection we
recommend to fit every chair with the legrests.
4.34.3 Kerb climber tting and removal procedure
(RWD base only)
Locate the kerb climber bar into the left hand location
bracket and push it into the right hand receiver bracket
(Fig. 4.8 and Fig 4.9).
Hold the kerb climber with your right hand in the receiver
bracket.
Align the holes of the receiver bracket and the kerb climber
tube and plug in the locking pin from the top.
Reverse the procedure to remove the kerb climber.
DANGER!
1. Please show the utmost consideration for the other traffic on
the road. Remember that the last thing a car or lorry driver
expects to see is a wheelchair backing off the kerb into the
road. If in any doubt, do not risk crossing the road until you are
certain that it is safe.
2. Always cross the road as quickly as possible; there may be
other traffic.
3. Do not attempt to go up or down more than a 10 cm (4”) high
kerb (GROOVE R only with kerb climber fitted).
4. Do not attempt to use the kerb climber on a series of steps.
5. Do not attempt kerbs if on steep slopes or cambers.
6. Do not attempt any kerbs in the vicinity of drain covers,
uneven or gritty road surfaces.
7. Do not attempt to dismount a kerb any higher than 5 cm (2”)
in the forwards direction in a RWD-chair.
8. Do not mount or dismount kerbs at an angle other than straight
on (90 degrees) to the edge of the kerb.
9. Prior to climbing ensure your legrests will clear the kerb.
10. Take care of the anti tips which might interfere with the kerb
or the ground when mounting or dismounting a kerb.
WARNING!
This wheelchair is designed to be repaired and assembled by
a Sunrise Medical authorised dealer and not the end user. The
end user has to disassemble and assemble the chair only for
transportation (see section 5.2).
