Brakes
- Intelligent electromagnetic brakes: as soon as the control joystick is not operated, the brakes will be automatically operative to stop the electric wheelchair.
- Please observe whether the hand brake works or not
- The brakes can be released using two safety releases on the rear which can be operated from behind by foot, or by hand if the wheelchair occupant reaches back
- After the brakes have been released, the wheelchair can be pushed from behind or it can be rolled on the rear wheels when folded. If the wheelchair is occupied, it is recommended to use power assistance (joystick control). Pushing the electric wheelchair from behind is possible, however it is a bit harder compared to pushing a non-motorized wheelchair.
Joystick Controller
- The joystick controller is used to control the chair's movement, including its speed and direction. The joystick control is installed in one armrest, which is connected to the motor and battery.
- The further you push the joystick from central position, the faster the wheelchair moves. Whenever you release the joystick lever, it will automatically return to center, and brake will be automatically engaged to stop the ewheelchair.
- Plus(+) and Minus (-) buttton to adjust 5-speed, starting from steady slowest motion to the speed you feel comfortable to ride. Leitner recommends you start at our lowest speed until you can ride ewheelchair skillfully.
