User benefits
Constant descent control: the action of the high-grip tracks generates the necessary friction on the steps, allowing the operator to guide the chair along the stairs smoothly and without jerks.
Manoeuvrability in tight spaces: the combination of the compact frame and the weight of 12.7 kg allows for managing passages in small stairwells and landings.
Adjustment of the activation handle: the multi-height extendable handle adjustment allows rescuers to set the ideal leverage based on their height.
Easier gliding on flat paths: the Ø20 cm rear wheels reduce friction during transfers in corridors, while the Ø10 cm swivel front wheels with brake ensure parking stability and manoeuvrability.
Patient posture and stabilization: the joint action of the belts on the adjustable headrest and the footrest promotes blood circulation and securely holds the user during evacuation.
