The Wheelbase is made of a strong and lightweight aluminium alloy, minimising weight
and providing a very rugged frame. The wheelbase provides tilt in space and rotation
facilities and has 2 fixed rear wheels and 2 castor wheels at the front for easy steering.
The Interface provides a very lightweight, easy to operate, quick release system that can
be fitted to a wide range of special seating systems. Please note the interface requires
additional framework to fit to a seat, and has been designed to take 19mm (3/4”)
aluminium or mild steel tube.
The interface can be quickly fitted and released from the wheelbase, which can be folded
for transport. The Swirl has been successfully impact tested as a wheelbase and interface,
with the Snappi, Snug and Modular seating systems. When fitting 3rd party seating
systems to the Swirl, the manufacturer of the system must carry out a risk assessment
before use.
These instructions apply to all sizes.
