The forus push handle mechanism is centred with
springs which will always bring it back to its centre
position when the attendant's hands are taken off the
handles. The push handles can be adjusted in height by
releasing the spring loaded pin on the side, adjusting to
the right height position and releasing the pin. (Fig 10.3)
9.8 Emergency stop button
The forus attendant control is equipped with an
EMERGENCY STOP button (Fig 9.3). When pressed, it
brings the wheelchair to a controlled stop.
When the button is pressed, it automatically locks
mechanically in that position. To release twist and pull
the EMERGENCY STOP button until it locks into the off
position. The wheelchair can now be switched on.
NOTE: Always move the wheelchair with care. If the
programming of the attendant drive profile(s) needs
adjustments to make it more convenient for the attendant
and/or the person sitting in the wheelchair please contact
your Sunrise Service agent for adaptation.
If the direction of movement of the forus attendant control
needs to be altered please contact your authorised
Sunrise Medical dealer for adaptation.
