ETAC BALDER JUNIOR (01) PDF SUMMARY:

What is the purpose of Balder wheelchairs?

Balder wheelchairs are multifunctional electric wheelchairs that are very comfortable and highly flexible in terms of functionality. They combine the qualities of an outdoor chair with the flexibility of an indoor model and are designed for daily use in all situations.


What should be done to make the chair ready for use?

It is recommended to make sure the chair is adjusted to meet individual needs before use. Each chair has simple control and adjustment options to help the user sit as comfortably as possible. The technical description provides more information about the control and adjustment options.


Where is the unique serial number located on Balder wheelchairs?

The unique serial number is located on the chassis, between the wheels.


Who should you contact if you require assistance with your Balder wheelchair?

You should contact your local dealer or the Assistive Device Centre in your district if you need any assistance. You can also refer to the troubleshooting list.


What does the “DANGER” hazard symbol mean?

The “DANGER” hazard symbol indicates that if instructions are not followed, staff WILL be seriously injured.


What does the “WARNING” hazard symbol mean?

The “WARNING” hazard symbol indicates that if instructions are not followed, machinery WILL be seriously damaged.


What does the “NOTE” hazard symbol mean?

The “NOTE” hazard symbol indicates that if instructions are not followed, staff MAY be injured or machinery or the environment MAY be damaged.


What should be done with the chair in terms of the environment?

These chairs must be sorted at source in accordance with applicable regulations on waste. Batteries and electronic equipment in particular must be taken into account.


How many people are Balder wheelchairs designed to transport?

Balder wheelchairs are designed to transport one – 1 – person.


Is it permissible to allow another person to ride on the Balder wheelchair?

No, never allow anyone else to ride with you, either behind you or on the footrests.


What should you do when using the wheelchair on uneven, wet, or slippery surfaces?

Take care when using the wheelchair on uneven, wet, or slippery surfaces (gravel, loose sand/earth, wet grass, etc.). These are conditions in which you could overturn or lose control of your chair. Be aware that negotiating obstacles can involve a risk of overturning.


How deep of water should be avoided while using the wheelchair?

Avoid traveling through water more than 7 cm deep. This may damage the electric motor and systems, as well as the battery.


What happens when traveling on slopes in excess of 6 degrees?

When traveling on slopes in excess of 6 degrees, remember that this will affect the stability of the chair and there is a risk of the chair overturning.


What happens when the wheelchair drives downhill?

When the wheelchair drives downhill, the motor generates energy, which charges the battery.


What happens if the battery is already fully charged while the wheelchair drives downhill?

If the battery is already fully charged, it cannot accept the generated energy anymore. When this happens the battery voltage becomes too high, which can result in damage to either the controller or the batteries. The controller will try to prevent this damage and if needed it will ultimately force the vehicle to halt abruptly.


How can you ensure a smooth journey downhill?

  • Select a drive profile that has a lower maximum speed.
  • If your vehicle has lights, turn them on. The lights will use energy, and as a result less energy will go to the batteries. This allows you to go downhill at a slightly faster speed than with the lights off.
  • When the LEDs of the battery gauge start to flash as a warning that the batteries are overcharging, do not ignore this warning. Drive at a lower speed. If you do not slow down, you will damage the batteries. When your speed has been too fast for too long, the vehicle will halt to prevent more damage.

What should you do if you often need to go downhill with fully charged batteries?

If you often need to go downhill with fully charged batteries, ask your installer/technician/therapist to optimize the program values of your chair for your situation.
