ONE ARM DRIVE: The type of one arm drive mechanism which is available with this wheelchair is called a twin rim. The driving wheels are linked so that either wheel or both can be controlled from a dual set of push rims which are positioned on one wheel only. One push rim has a slightly smaller diameter than the other and is positioned on the outside of the larger push rim. When one push rim is moved independently of the other, only one wheel is driven and will cause the wheelchair to turn. (The outer push rim controls the wheel on the opposite side. The inner push rim controls the wheel on the same side). When both push rims are moved together, both large wheels are driven simultaneously and the wheelchair will move forward.

MAINTENANCE: All wheelchairs require regular maintenance. Refer to User Manual for specific details.
