4. Area of application:
The pushing device provides the attendant with the
potential to enable the user to safely cover long distances
in an ergonomically and ecologically efficient manner,
using their own wheelchair. It significantly extends the
activity radius.
The attached wheelchair must be equipped in
accordance with road traffic regulations when used on
public roads, pavements and spaces.
The max load (user and wheelchair) is 190 kg.
The pushing device can be operated by people who:
• are physically and mentally capable of safely operating
the pushing device in all operating situations (uphill,
downhill, etc.) and can meet the legal requirements for
use on public roads.
• have been advised and trained in its use by Sunrise
Medical or an authorised Sunrise Medical dealer.
Operating Conditions
The pushing device should be able to cope with tarmac
surfaces and firm paths with different topography. Avoid
driving on loose surfaces (e.g. loose gravel, in sand,
mud, snow, ice or through deep puddles of water), as this
may expose the user to unforeseen risks.
Observe the information on permissible operating
conditions in the Instructions for Use for the wheelchair
onto which the pushing device is fitted. Any limits
regarding the permissible operating conditions (e.g.
maximum climbing capability, maximum permissible
height of obstacles, max. user weight, etc.) must be
observed when using the pushing device!
