Driving on a slope
• When driving on a slope, always
drive carefully and with the utmost
concentration.
• Avoid sudden and jerky movements.
• Avoid making emergency stops on a
slope.
• Avoid changing direction on a slope
whenever possible.
• Do not turn on a slope.
• Only drive up a slope with all the
adjustment options set to the neutral
position.
• Driving on a slope in reverse can be
extremely dangerous.
• Do not drive on slopes with loose
gravel or a sandy surface, as one of
the driving wheels could slip/spin.
• Driving on a slope too long can cause
overheating of the motor.
• When driving down a slope forwards
in a FWD wheelchair, we always
recommend using an anti-tip.
Uphill
• If you notice a strong decrease in
speed when driving up a slope, take
a less steep route.
Downhill
• Prevent the wheelchair from gaining
too much speed.
6.4 Obstakels
Driving up a kerb
• Choose the place where the kerb is
at its lowest (see chapter 10 ‘climbing
capacity for obstacles’)
• Drive straight up to the kerb (20 cm in
front of the kerb).
• Move the joystick forwards. Drive up
the kerb without changing direction.
• As soon as the front wheels are on
the pavement, you must maintain
speed in order to get onto the
pavement with all wheels. If it is
impossible to drive onto the
pavement, find a lower place where it
is possible.
Driving down a kerb
• Choose the place where the kerb is
at its lowest. In case of doubt, do not
take any risks and find another route
or someone to help you.
• Drive with your front wheels straight
up to the kerb.
• Move the joystick slowly forwards.
Drive down the kerb carefully and as
slowly as possible, without changing
direction.
• Never drive down stairs in a
wheelchair.
• Do not drive off obstacles higher than
6 cm.
