Introduction

Specification

Assembly

Folding

The CareCo Airglide Wheelchair will come fully

assembled with the exception of the legrests.

Simply take the wheelchair out of its packaging

and pull the armrests apart, then push the seat

base down until in the horizontal position.

The legrests then clip into the two fixings part

way down the wheelchair legs and swing in

towards the centre of the chair where they

will click into place. The legrests are height

adjustable to a number of fixed positions. To

adjust the length of the footrest simply push

the silver buttons on the footrest pole and slide

into one of the fixed height adjustment holes.

The CareCo Airglide Wheelchair has been

designed to fold for ease of transportation and

storage. Ensure the footrests are in the forward

position and flip the plastic footplates up.

Whilst holding the front and rear of the seat

canvas, pull upwards to fold the chair.

For transportation it is recommended that the

legrests are removed by pushing the chrome

lever on the legrests and swinging away from

the wheelchair. This will unlock the legrest and

allow it to be removed by lifting upwards.

Pull this

lever.

WARNING

Do not push down on the handles to raise the front of the wheel-

chair as this could result in damage to your Airglide Wheelchair.

Use the stepper tube as described further on in this manual.

Mounting a Kerb – Approach the kerb head

on. The attendant/carer pushes down with

their foot on the stepper tube at the rear of the

The attendant/carer then pushes the wheelchair

forward and lifts the rear of the wheelchair up

onto the kerb.

Going down a Kerb – Approach the kerb head

on. The attendant/carer pushes down with their

foot on the stepper tube at the rear and gently

the ground.
