14 HULA
Rev.1.0
4.23.1 Mounting a low kerb or step
WARNING!
Approach the kerb at a 90° angle and stop the •
wheelchair as soon as the castor wheels touch the
kerb.
Apply sufficient power to the motors to lift the front •
of the wheelchair up onto the kerb (or step) and then
apply slightly more power and speed so that the drive
wheels climb the kerb (or step) smoothly and without
hesitation and the rear castor wheels come up as
well.
As far as possible, keep the joystick in the straight •
forward position, (Fig.4.4 - 4.6).
NOTE: In accordance to the ground clearance, the
maximum obstacle height possible to climb is 5.0 cm.
Please ensure that the limitations of the Hula
performance are understood before any outdoor
use, by reading this Owners’ Manual carefully.

WARNINGS!
1. Please show the utmost consideration for the other
traffic on the road. Remember that the last thing a car or
lorry driver expects to see is a wheelchair backing off the
kerb into the road. If in any doubt, do not risk crossing the
road until you are certain that it is safe.
2. Always cross the road as quickly as possible; there may
be other traffic.
3. Do not attempt to go up or down more than a 5.0 cm
(2”) high kerb.
4. Do not attempt to climb a series of steps.
5. Do not attempt kerbs if on steep slopes or cambers.
6. Do not attempt any kerbs in the vicinity of drain covers,
uneven or gritty road surfaces.
7. You should not attempt to dismount a kerb any higher
than 5.0 cm (2”) in any direction.
8. Do not mount or dismount kerbs at an angle other than
straight on (90 degrees) to the edge of the kerb.
9. Prior to climbing ensure your legrests will clear the
kerb.
WARNING!
This wheelchair is designed to be repaired and assembled
by a Sunrise Medical authorised dealer and not the
user. Information on disassembly and assembly of the
wheelchair for storage is shown in section 5.1-5.2.
