Warning:
Do not drive into curbs!
Going down the pavement:
The attendant should move the wheelchair forward to the curb. Then the user should
lean back so the attendant can tilt the wheelchair to find a balance point. When the
wheelchair is balanced the attendant can move the wheelchair slowly off the curb.
When the wheelchair is off the pavement, the attendant can let the front wheels back
onto the ground.
4.3 Going up and down ramps
Inspect the slope always for risks, such as holes or slippery and uneven surfaces
before you drive off.
Warning:
Do not carry any weight on the back of the wheelchair whilst ascending. This
changes the balance and increases the chances of tipping backwards.
You may recall earlier in the manual that you were instructed to ensure the footrests
are a minimum 7 cm from the ground. One reason for this is that when you are
descending a slope you need a minimum of this amount of clearance in order to
ensure the footplates do not catch the end of the slope.
4.4 Going up and down stairs
Stairs are one of the largest obstacles for wheelchair users. However, with a little help
from others it is possible to climb up and down the stairs. Assessment of the weight
that has to be moved should be undertaken by the attendants prior to this manoeuvre.
Going upstairs
You need to go upstairs backwards with two attendants, one attendant at the front
and one attendant at the back. The attendant at the back grabs the push handles and
let the wheelchair tip backwards until it is in balance. When the wheels are in balance
the attendant at the front needs to grab the side frames. You are now in position to
climb the stairs. The attendant on the front pushes the side frames up until they are
above the first step and the attendant at the back makes the first step on the stairs.
Repeat this technique until the last step of the stair. You can let the front castors down
when the attendant at the front has taken the last step.
