YOUNGSTER 3
NOTE !
The effect of the knee-lever brake as well as the general
driving characteristics are dependent on tyre pressure. The
wheelchair is significantly lighter and easier to manoeuvre
when the rear wheels are pumped up correctly and both
wheels have the same pressure.
Make sure that your tyres have sufficient tread!
Please note that you are subject to any and all traffic laws
when driving in public traffic.
When it is dark, please wear light clothing or clothing with
reflectors, so that you can be seen more easily. Make sure
that the reflectors on the side and back of the wheelchair
are clearly visible. We would also recommend that you fit
an active light.
Always be careful with your fingers when working or
adjusting the wheelchair!
WARNING!
CHOKING HAZARD – This mobility aid uses small parts which
under certain circumstances may present a choking hazard to
small children.
The products shown and described in this manual may not be
exactly the same in every detail as your own model. However,
all instructions are completely relevant, regardless of possible
detail differences.
The manufacturer reserves the right to alter without notice any
weights, measurements or other technical data shown in this
manual. All figures, measurements and capacities shown in this
manual are approximate and do not constitute specifications.
Lifetime
The intended lifetime of the wheelchair is 5 years.
The wheel locks have not been designed to be used as
brakes for a moving wheelchair.
Always make use of elevators and ramps. If these are not
available, you should request the help of an attendant.
They should only grip the wheelchair at securely mounted
parts. If anti-tip tubes are fitted these must be folded away.
A wheelchair should never be lifted with an occupant; it
should only be pushed.
If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must replace
them immediately.
Do not lift or carry the wheelchair by the backtubes or the
pushhandles.
Do not fit any unauthorized electronic equipment, powered
or mechanically operated mobility drives, hand-bike or any
other device that changes the intended use or the structure
of the wheelchair. Any combination with other medical
devices requires the approval of Sunrise Medical.
Be careful with fire, in particular with burning cigarettes.
Seat and back slings can be set alight.
If and whenever possible, during a journey in a specially
fitted vehicle for disabled people, vehicle occupants should
use the seats in the vehicle and the appropriate restraint
system. This is the only way to ensure that occupants will
have the maximum protection if there is an accident. When
using safety elements offered by SUNRISE MEDICAL and
using a specially designed safety system, the wheelchairs
can be used as a seat when being transported in a
specially fitted vehicle. (See the Chapter on
“Transportation”).
Always make sure that the quick-release axles on the rear
wheels are set properly and lock in. If the button on the
quick-release axle is not pressed in, the rear wheel cannot
be removed.
In particular when using lightweight metal handrims, fingers
will easily become hot when braking from a high speed or
on long inclines.
If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight for a long
period of time, then parts of the wheelchair (e.g. frame,
legrests, brakes and sideguard) may become hot (>41°C).
To avoid hand injuries do not grab in between the spokes
or between the rear wheel and wheel lock when driving the
wheelchair.
When using the chair outside, always wear leather gloves
which will increase your grip and protect the fingers from
dirt and overheating.
Do not use the wheelchair on slopes > 10°.
The Dynamic safe slope is dependent on the chair
configuration, the user#s abilities and the style of riding. As
the user’s abilities and style of riding cannot be pre-
determined then the max safe slope cannot be determined.
Therefore this must be determined by the user with the
assistance of an attendant to prevent tipping. It is strongly
recommended that inexperienced users have anti-tip tubes
fitted. Do not use your wheelchair on muddy or icy ground.
Do not use your wheelchair where pedestrians are not
allowed.
With all moving parts there is a natural risk of finger traps.
Please handle with care
The wheelchair should not be used in heavy rain, snow,
slippery, or unsound surfaces. Do not use the wheelchair in
hazardous environments.
Adjustments to your wheelchair, particularly to safety-
related components must be carried out by an approved
dealer. This applies to adjustments to wheel locks, anti-tip
tubes, backrest angle and height, lower leg length, COG,
lap belt, rear wheel toe-in and camber, seat height as well
as toe-in and directional stability of the castor fork.
When using mobility accessories fitted to the wheelchair
such as handbikes, electronic power assist, etc, make sure
that your wheelchair is fitted with the appropriate castor
forks, approved for this use. Please contact your dealer if
you have any questions.
Any combination with other medical devices requires the
approval of Sunrise Medical.
