3.4 Climbing metal grid stairs
Special caution is required when using the scalamobil on stairs whose steps are made
of metal grids.
!
Before transporting a person over such stairs, complete a test run
with the empty wheelchair. If the brakes become jammed, do not
use the scalamobil on the stairs. The scalamobil must not be rotat-
ed, as this could bend or destroy the brake.
!
Never use the scalamobil on wet or slippery metal grid stairs. When
using the stair climber on outdoor stairs, ensure that metal grids are
not covered in wet leaves or pieces of paper, as they make the steps
slippery. Never use the scalamobil on stairs that are obviously slip-
pery. Never use the scalamobil to climb stairs covered in ice.
!
To guarantee brake function [17], the length of the grid structure
(measured in the direction of travel [F] of the scalamobil) must not
be less than the following:
Brake [17] with wheel diameter d= 72 mm: a= maximum 55 mm
Brake [17] with wheel diameter d= 60 mm: a= maximum 50 mm
Never use the scalamobil on metal grid stairs where the specified
values are exceeded.
S3.5 Halting the scalamobil while climbing stairs
When climbing stairs, do not interrupt the operation of the scalamobil or halt the
device mid-stairs. In general, stopping on stairs is only permitted in emergencies,
for example if the wheelchair user requires medical attention.
If you need to call for assistance, lower the scalamobil on the steps as shown in the
diagram to the left. Do not leave the person in the wheelchair alone, and always
remain in visual contact.
In an emergency, the person in the wheelchair must remain calm, as sudden
movements induced by panic might dislodge the stair climber from its position.
If the scalamobil is not equipped with a headrest, we strongly recommend that
the head of the person in the wheelchair be brought into a comfortable resting
position. To do this, you might need to place the head on a cushion made from
pieces of clothing.
Please note that the scalamobil is automatically shut down when it is not in use for
more than 5 minutes.
3.6 Driving a wheelchair with attached scalamobil
If required, the scalamobil can remain attached to the wheelchair while moving on
level ground. To allow for proper movement, ensure that the inner [15] and outer
[16] wheels are aligned with each other (see chapter 2.5.1) so that they do not
touch the ground.
Please note that the brake [17] protrudes somewhat from the bottom of the stair
climber and might collide with obstacles (e.g. kerb stones). Avoid any impact as this
could damage the brake [17].
!
Before using the scalamobil to climb stairs, you must remove the
drive wheels from the wheelchair.
Never attempt to climb stairs while the drive wheels of the wheel-
chair are still attached, as this will result in the wheelchair toppling
over, causing serious injury!
