Using your wheelchair
10
EN
NL
Always keep the swing range of the footplate in mind to prevent
bystanders from being injured
or objects from being damaged.
If you don’t have enough experience riding your wheelchair, ask assistance of an attendant.
Keep your arms away from the wheels and keep your feet on the footplate.
Stairs should always be negotiated with the help of two attendants.
Never try to use stairs that are not appropriate for wheelchairs.
3.8.1 Riding your wheelchair:
1. Release the brakes.
2. Take both hand rims at their highest position.
3. Lean forward and push the hand rims forward until your arms are straight.
4. Move your hands back to the top of the hand rims and repeat the movement.
3.8.2 Moving on slopes
Risk of injuries
Moving on slopes as slow as possible.
If your attendant does not have enough force to control the wheelchair, put on the brakes.
Lean forward to move your centre of gravity forward. To improve a better stability
.
1. If available on the wheelchair, wear the safety belt.
2. Do not attempt moving on too high slopes. The maximum slope angles
(upwards and downwards) are mentioned in table 1.
3. Ask an attendant to help you moving on the slope.
4. Lean forward to move your centre of gravity forward.
3.8.3 Negotiating steps or kerbs
Risk of injuries
If you do not have
enough experience with your wheelchair, ask assistance of an attendant.
Getting down steps or kerbs
Riding down low kerbs can be done moving forwards. Make sure that the foot bracket does not
touch the ground.
A practiced user can negotiate small steps or kerbs by himself:
1. Bring balance on the rear wheels to reduce the pressure on the front
wheels.
2. Negotiate the kerbs.
Higher kerbs can be taken forward with an attendant:
1. Ask the attendant to tip the wheelchair slightly backwards.
2. Get past the kerbs while moving on the rear wheels.
3. Put the wheelchair back on the four wheels.
An experienced user can negotiate higher kerbs by himself. This is best done backwards.
