with the kerb (step), the wheelchair should be moving
slowly. Small kerbs can be climbed from a standstill.

to get the chair up. MWD-Chair: Stop the chair as soon
as the castor wheels touch the kerb.
RWD- and MWD-Chair: Apply sufficient power to the
motors to lift the front of the chair up onto the kerb (step)
and then apply slightly more power and speed so that the
drive wheels climb the kerb (step) smoothly and without
hesitation. As far as possible, keep the joystick in the
straight forward position. FWD-Chair: slow down the
acceleration as soon as the drive wheels are on the kerb
until the rear castor are up.

obstacle height possible to climb is 5 cm for a RWD-
Chair (10 cm with kerb climber on a rear wheel drive
