- Dual handrim :
Two systems allow the user to drive the wheelchair with a
single arm using two handrims on the same wheel (right or
left available).
• Fixed (photo 30) : the wheel axles are xed, folding is the
same as for a regular wheelchair.
• Quick release (photo 31) : the removable and inter-
changeable rear wheels facilitate transport as well as the
replacement of the control side.
To fold the wheelchair, disengage the transmission shaft (A)
by sliding the two rings (B and B')). To facilitate this opera-
tion apply a front to rear motion to the outside handrim.
To roll the folded wheelchair, separate the two wheels (one
centimetre) by pushing the buttons of quick-release axles.
Make sure that the wheels are still engaged!
Several types of braking adapted to your specic needs
are available. Please consult with your dealer upon agree-
ment by your prescribing physician.
