Push and Brake Assist for the Attendant
Pushing a wheelchair can put great strain on nursing staff
and family members. The z10 push and brake assist makes
it easier for the attendant to push the wheelchair - over
longer distance, on uneven surfaces or when additional
power is needed to go uphill. While driving downhill, the
attendant can rely on the secure braking function.
Easy Installation
The z10 push and brake assist is attached below the seat
bottom from the rear. In order to do so, an adapter plate is
permanently mounted to the wheelchair frame so that the
z10 can be attached or removed as needed.
z10-ce
Add-On Drive with Tiller Control for
Independent Driving
In the z10-ce product version, the user can drive the wheelchair with tiller control independently. The user continues
to benefit from the advantages of a manual wheelchair,
such as manoeuvrability and ease of transportation, while
enjoying the ability to move about independently both
indoors and outdoors. The intuitive tiller control control is
easy and safe to operate, even for inexperienced drivers.
Easy Handling
The z10 push and brake
assist can be converted
to the z10-ce product
version at any time.
Only a few components,
which can be ordered
from a specialist dealer,
z10-ce retrofitting kit
are required.
