6 Pushing the mobility device in freewheel mode
The motors of the wheelchair are equipped with automatic brakes, preventing that the wheelchair
starts rolling out of control when the joystick box is switched off. When pushing the wheelchair
manually whilst freewheeling, the magnetic brakes must be disengaged.
NOTE:
Pushing the wheelchair by hand may require more physical force than expected (more than
100 N).
6.1 Disengaging motors
Danger of the vehicle running away!
• When the motors are disengaged (for push operation whilst freewheeling), the
electromagnetic motor brakes are deactivated! When the vehicle is parked, the levers for
engaging and disengaging the motors must without fail be locked firmly into the "DRIVE"
position (electromagnetic motor brakes activated)!
Each motor is fitted with an engaging lever which is used to engage or disengage the motor.
