Push Handles; Anti-Tip Tubes - Quickie Helium Notice D'utilisation

Push Handles

Height-Adjustable Push Handles
These handles are secured with pins to prevent them from
sliding out unintentionally. Opening the quick-release lever
(1) makes it possible to adjust the height of the push
handles (2) to meet your individual needs. As you move
the lever, you will hear a locking mechanism; you can now
easily position the push handle as desired. The nut on the
tension lever determines how tightly the push handles are
clamped into place. If the nut is loose after adjusting the
tension lever, the push handle will also be too loose. Turn
the push handle from side to side before use to make sure
that it is clamped securely enough into place. After
adjusting the handle height, always clamp the tension
lever (1) securely into place. If the lever is not secure,
injuries could result when ascending stairs. (Fig. 4.29).
NOTE – If the height-adjustable push handles are not
fitted properly, there is a risk that these will develop "play"
or that they move out of position. Please make sure that
the relevant screws are tightened correctly.
Fold-down push handles
If the push handles are not in use, they can be folded
down depressing the button (2). When they are needed
again, simply flip them back up until they click into place.
