10. Safety Instructions and Hazard Warnings
The following instructions are to be implicitly observed in order to guarantee the
secure utilisation of your viamobil.
10.1 Safety Instructions
Pay attention to the following before driving:
the viamobil should only be fixed to wheel chairs, which have been cleared by the
Alber GmbH company for this purpose.
Assembly and alteration to the brackets for the viamobil are only to be carried out
by the Alber GmbH company or by a health care specialist authorised by Alber.
It is imperative that you pay attention to the instruction manual for the
wheelchair when using the viamobil.
The permissible peak load of the wheelchair is reduced by the weight of the viamo-
bil (approx. 25 kg).
The viamobil is designed to be used on self propelling wheelchairs and transit
chairs and must be operated by the attendent only (under no circumstances must
any modification be done to the viamobil that allows the person sitting in the
chair to be in charge of the controls of the viamobil). The person pushing must be
able to support the wheelchair and wheelchair occupant in the event of it tilting
backwards or to the side.
It is strongly recommended that anti-tippers are mounted to your viamobil or
wheelchair! The use of paired anti-tippers is mandatory on uphill slopes over
4,57° (8%).
The lever brakes on the wheelchair, to which the viamobil is attached, have to be
arranged so that the person pushing is able to reach them easily.
Check the condition of the drive wheels before setting off on every drive. You are
no longer permitted to operate the viamobil if the tyres have reached their wear
limit.
Check whether the control unit [11] is firmly seated on the rocker arm [8] prior to
each use.
If you discover that the control unit is only loosely connected to the rocker arm,
have your authorised specialist dealer reinstall it properly.
Also check the distance between the driving lever [9] and the handle [7] in this
regard. As they must not come into contact with one another, driving lever and
handle should be at least 5 mm apart.
Ensure that the air pressure in the wheels of the wheelchair correspond with the
specifications of the wheelchair manufacturer.
The viamobil should be checked and serviced every two years by Alber or your spe-
cialised dealer (see chapter 11.3).
Pay attention to the following when driving your viamobil:
You should know how to handle the drive add-on on flat surfaces before taking the
viamobil on uphill or downhill slopes.
Always turn the operating button for the speed selection to the position displa-
ying the lowest speed possible when starting up and gradually increase the speed
to the required walking speed.
It is not permitted to drive on uphill or downhill slopes with an incline over 5,71°
(10%). The max. permissable incline as stated by the wheelchair manufacturer is
under no circumstances to be exceeded.
Set the operating button for the speed selection to a speed which is not faster
than a comfortable walking speed for the person pushing, especially before mano-
euvring inclines.
Uphill and downhill slopes should never be manoeuvred in roll operation mode.
Never back up to steps or drops when the drive add-on is switched on.
If the viamobil is switched on, every impulse on the handle bar is tranferred into a
driving command. Every unwanted impulse should therefore be eliminated if possi-
ble. Switch the viamobil off when stopping or waiting in front of potential danger
spots (i.e. while waiting at traffic lights, uphill and downhill slopes or ramps of all
kinds) and remove your hands from the handle bar.
