Your power chair is equipped with | SECUREMENT BRACKETS |
(STS). STS is a suspension system designed to make your |
|
power chair traverse different types of terrain and obstacles |
|
while maintaining smooth operation. With STS, the spring- |
|
loaded drive wheels move in two |
|
over obstacles and down when encountering transitions. |
|
As the drive wheels come in contact with an obstacle, they |
|
are drawn upward. At the same time, the rear |
|
work in opposition to the drive wheels to eliminate the |
|
possibility of the chair losing traction. This creates a safer, |
|
more secure ride. |
