SAFETY REGULATIONS
Current information
Up-to-date information on safety and product updates can be found at
Panthera’s: website, www.panthera.se
Verify that your wheelchair corresponds with your order:
– Measure the seat width. – Measure the height of the backrest. – Ensure you
have received the accessories you ordered.
Conduct a technical inspection of your wheelchair, ensuring that:
– the rear wheel’s quick release can easily be shifted in and out of its
casings. – the rear wheel is firmly attached following installation. – the
quick release button springs out fully while in locked position. – all four
wheels are in contact with the floor. – the Castor fork can be rotated with
ease. – the backrest folds down easily.
Balance and tipping capacity
The angle of the backrest, the adjustment of the backrest upholstery and the
position of the rear wheel are the most significant factors affecting the
wheelchair’s balance and tendency to tip. After adapting your wheelchair,
check that you feel confident about the balance of the wheelchair.
The tipping capacity of the wheelchair may also be affected if a bag is hung
on the backrest, if you lean or stretch backwards, if the tyres are worn or
contain insufficient air or if there is an unexpected change to the surface
you are driving on.
Anti-tip device
Panthera wheelchairs are designed to be as manoeuvrable as possible, which
means the wheelchair responds quickly and seamlessly to the actions you
perform. If you perform the wrong actions you could tip over in the
wheelchair. If you operate the wheelchair incorrectly and do not have an anti-
tip device, there is a risk you may tip backwards.
The anti-tip devices are a safety feature designed to prevent you from falling
backwards in the wheelchair. If you have the slightest doubt about the balance
of the wheelchair, the anti-tip devices should always be fully extended. If
you operate or use the wheelchair in such a manner that the anti-tip devices
are used regularly, or if your model is equipped with electrically powered
wheels, the load on the devices will increase and they must be checked daily.

SAFETY REGULATIONS
Wheelchair skills
It is important to test your wheelchair comprehensively and take the time
required to hone your wheelchair skills. If you have any questions on
wheelchair technique, contact the person who prescribed the wheelchair or your
therapist. You are also welcome to get in touch with the team at Panthera AB.
Brakes
Your wheelchair is equipped either with brakes for each rear wheel (high
brakes) or a onehand brake. The one-hand brake can be applied by gripping with
one hand rather than two. The brakes are designed as parking brakes and not
for braking while in motion.
Please note. In order for the brakes to function correctly, the tyres must
contain the correct air pressure. See Technical facts. The brakes will operate
less effectively if the tyres are worn or contain insufficient air pressure.
If changing to a different type of tyre, always check the brakes as dimensions
may vary. If you have a high brake, be careful that your fingers do not make
contact with the brake when driving with the rear wheel. When transferring
sideways in and out of your Panthera, make sure you can lift yourself over the
brake so that you do not sit on or get caught on it. If you use the one-hand
brake and can stand up, be careful not to open the brake by accident with the
back of your legs.
Driving
Before using your wheelchair outdoors, spend plenty of time honing your
driving technique in a secure indoor environment with a flat surface.
Always use the anti-tip devices or ensure someone is behind you as you
practise. Do not attempt to drive outdoors until you feel completely confident
in your wheelchair. At speeds above 8 km / h the risk of losing control of the
wheelchair increases. Watch out for obstacles such as doorsteps and gutters in
which the small castors could become jammed, causing the user to fall
forwards. If the distance between the lowest point of the footrest and the
surface is small (less than 40 mm) the footrest could get caught on bumps in
the surface and cause you to fall forwards. If you drive down a curb with the
anti-tip devices folded out, they may become jammed and cause you to fall
forwards. If you feel unsafe, fold away the anti-tip devices and ask for help.
The wheelchair can also be fitted with push handles which enable the user to
be driven by an assistant.
Shopping or groceries can be hung on the backrest in a bag or rucksack, but
you must be fully aware that this substantially increases the risk of the
wheelchair tipping backwards. In this case, the anti-tip devices must be
folded out.
Driving on uneven or inclined surfaces increases the risk of falling both
forward and backward.

SAFETY REGULATIONS
Transfer into the wheelchair
Techniques for transfer must be practised extensively together with qualified
staff. The methods described below are for advisory purposes only.
Transferring into the wheelchair sideways (Fig. 4) 1. Position the wheelchair
as close to you as possible.
2. Lock the brakes. Se “Brakes” under “Settings”.
3. Place one hand on the far corner of the wheelchair chassis and the other
on the surface you are moving from.
4. Carefully transfer yourself into the wheelchair with good balance.
To ensure the wheelchair is as stable as possible, reverse the wheelchair by
510 cm before stopping to make sure the Castors are pointing forwards.
Lifting while the user is in the wheelchair(Fig. 5) If the wheelchair is to be
lifted while the user remains seated, always grip the wheelchair’s chassis.
See arrows in Fig. 5. Do not lift using the backrest, push handles, leg
support, wheels or other movable sections.

SAFETY REGULATIONS
Warm or cold surfaces
If the wheelchair is exposed to sunshine for long periods, its surfaces may
become extremely warm. The wheelchair´s surfaces can also become very cold if
is stored or used in cold conditions.
Risk of jamming
While driving the chair, be aware of the risk of your fingers becoming jammed
between the rear wheel and the brake, and between the rear wheel and side
guard or armrest. Ensure your fingers or loose items do not become trapped in
the rear wheel’s spokes while driving. Moreover, take special care to ensure
children do not place their hands inside the spokes.
Panthera AB reserves the right to make technical changes if required art.nr.8822114 Rev. 2022-06 Publ. 2022-08-24
Risk of burns
If the wheelchair is equipped with friction pushrims on the drive wheels (see item 7 in Overview), there is a risk of burns to the hands and fingers if you brake the wheelchair at high speed with the hands of the pushrims, as the friction between the hand and the pushrim generates high heat.
Incidents
Any serious incident that has occurred in relation to the product should be
reported to Panthera and to the Swedish Medical Products Agency, or the
competent authority of the Member State in which the user and/or patient is
established.
SETTINGS
When adjusting the chair to suit your sitting posture and provide the mobility you require, it is important that you make the adjustments in the correct order. Firstly, adjust the chair to enable the correct sitting posture. Only then can you adjust the balance of the wheelchair to provide the mobility you require. This must be done in the correct sequence, as adjustments to the sitting posture affect the balance of the wheelchair. Bear in mind that a little effort adjusting the chair to your requirements initially will be of considerable benefit for a long time to come. Set aside a day to experiment with alternative settings and see how they feel, to ensure the sitting posture and balance of the wheelchair are just right for you. Adjustments to the wheelchair’s settings must take place in the following order:
The tension of the seat upholstery.
The height of the footrest.
The tension of the calf strap/heel strap.
The angle of the backrest.
The tension of the backrest upholstery.
The balance of the wheelchair.
The brake settings.

SETTINGS
- The tension of the seat upholstery (Fig. 6)
The rear section of the seat upholstery can be tightened or loosened by adjusting the Velcro strap underneath. This allows you to vary your seat height by around 2 cm upwards or downwards. The seat should be used together with a seat cushion. 2) The height of the footrest (Fig. 7) The footrest can be adjusted either upwards or downwards. You should adjust the footrest at a height where your thighs are supported by the seat at the same time as your feet are supported by the footplates or foot support.
Adjusting the height of the footrest: 1) Remove the two screws supporting the footrest on the front of the frame using a 3 mm Allen key. Alt. Allen key 4 mm with foldable footplates. 2) You can then move the footrest up or down to fit into one of the fixed positions. 3) Securely tighten the two screws.
Models with Y.front The footrest in standard configuration allows adjustment in the 4 lowest holes. To use the lowest position (the footrest in its highest position) you need to shorten the footrest with a saw. For more information, please contact Panthera. - The tension of the calf strap/heel strap (Fig. 8 and 9)
The tension of the calf strap and heel strap will determine how far forward you can place your feet on the foot support or footplates, respectively. The suitable tension depends largely on how long or short your legs are.
Adjusting the tension of the calf strap/heel strap (Fig. 8 and 9) 1) Loosen the calf strap/heel strap. 2) Place your feet on the foot support/footplates. - Adjust the tension of the calf strap/heel strap using the Velcro strap provided.

4) The angle of the backrest (Fig. 10)
- Deactivate the backrest locking function on both sides by pulling the wire (1).
- Fold the backrest forwards.
- Loosen the lock screws (2) a few rotations using a 4 mm Allen key. Repeat this process on the other side.
- Turn the backrest lock casings (3) clockwise so that the lock faucet does not fix the backrest in place. Use the 19 mm cap key. Repeat this process on the other side.
- Release the lock nuts (4) on both sides using the 17 mm cap key.
- Adjust the angle of the backrest using the adjustment screws (5) on both sides. Using the 4 mm Allen key, unscrew the adjustment screws to tilt the backrest forwards. Tightening the adjustment screws will allow the backrest to tilt backwards. It is important to adjust both sides equally to avoid the backrest tubing becoming crooked. Test this by placing the backrest in the upright position and checking that both adjustment screws are touching the frame.
- Experiment with suitable backrest angles before tightening the lock nuts (4) on both sides.
- Place the backrest into the upright position.
- Turn the backrest lock casings (3) so that the lock faucets spring out into their tracks. Use the 19 mm cap key.
- Tighten the lock screws (2) on both sides using a 4 mm Allen key.

SETTINGS
5) The tension of the backrest upholstery (Fig. 11)
You can adjust the backrest upholstery to suit the shape of your back using
the straps located under the flap at the rear of the backrest. This provides
good support to the small of the back. The backrest upholstery also has a
lower flap fastened with Velcro above the seat upholstery, under the seat
cushion. This flap can be moved backwards or forwards to obtain the required
tension in the lower section of the back upholstery (known as the seat
bucket). Adjusting the tension of the backrest upholstery: 1) Lift up the
backrest upholstery’s upper flap (1). 2) Loosen the bands. 3) Sit as far back
in the chair as you can. If it feels as though you are not sitting far back
enough in the chair, it may be because the backrest upholstery’s lower flap is
fastened too far forward on the seat Loosen the flap (2) and then fasten it
further back on the seat upholstery. 4) Tighten the bands to ensure you have
the necessary support. 5) Fold down the backrest upholstery’s upper flap (1).
6) The balance of the wheelchair (Fig. 12) You can adjust the balance of the
wheelchair by moving the rear wheel’s rear axle either forwards or backwards
the further forward the rear axle is placed, the greater the wheelchair’s rear
balance. This is done in order to transfer more weight onto the rear wheel,
making the chair lighter at the front. This makes the chair easier to
manoeuvre and easier to tip up onto its rear wheels, for instance, when
negotiating curbs, doorsteps and so on. However, the chair should not be
balanced too far to the rear, as this increases the risk of the chair tipping
backwards. It is important that you take time trying out a balance that suits
your body and driving technique, so you can adapt the chair to be as easy to
drive as possible without substantially increasing the risk of tipping. You
should always have someone standing behind you when you try out the chair
after adjusting its balance. If you still feel unsure about the balance of
your chair having tested it thoroughly, you should use anti-tip devices. When
extended, these devices eliminate the danger of tipping backwards and are
easily retracted when you no longer need them.

Adjusting the balance of the wheelchair (Fig. 12)
- Remove the rear wheel by pressing the quick release button and pulling the wheel straight off. 2) Use the 15 mm cap key in order to loosen the lock screw (1). Repeat this process on the other side. 3) You will now be able to push the rear axle forward or backwards along the horizontal frame tubing. Continue until you find a suitable setting. 4) It is important that the rear axle is in the same forward position on both sides of the frame. This is most easily verified by measuring the distance between the rear end of the horizontal tubing and the rear end of the wheel attachment. See the two-way arrow in Fig.
- Use a tape measure or ruler to ensure the distance is the same on both sides. 5) Tighten the lock screws (1) on both sides. 6) Reattach the rear wheels to the rear axle of the wheelchair and push in the wheels as far as possible. Check that the quick release button has sprung out, confirming the quick release is in locked position. 7) Pull the wheels outwards to ensure they are firmly attached.
- Adjusting the brakes
Please note! The effectiveness of the brakes is affected when the air pressure drops, the tyres become worn or when changing to a different type of tyre. As a result, the brakes’ settings should be checked from time to time. Adjusting the one-hand brake (Fig. 13)
One-arm brake is activated by pulling lever (1) backwards until stop. Then both rear wheel are locked at the same time. 1) Use a 5 mm Allen key to loosen the one-hand brake’s clamping bolts on both sides. 2) You will now be able to push the brake forwards and backwards along the chassis’ seat tubing. Adjust the brake so that it presses around 4 mm into the tyre while in locked position. 3) Ensure that the brakes are in the same forward position on both sides of the chair. 4) Tighten the clamping bolt (2) using a 4 mm Allen key.

setting the anti-tip device in one of the five positions (4).. Folding in the
anti-tip devices: 1. Push the knob downwards (1). 2. Fold the anti-tip device
under the seat. 3. Repeat on the other anti-tip device.
Side guards (Fig. 16) The side guards prevent clothing and loose items from
becoming jammed in the wheelchair’s spokes and also stop dirt from the wheels
getting onto the user’s clothing. The side guards are fitted with a soft upper
section that folds down upon load, for example, when the user transfers to and
from the wheelchair. You can place your hands on the side guards while pulling
yourself up and down. The side guards can be removed, during transportation,
for example, by pulling them up vertically to release them from their
attachments.

TRANSPORTATION
Securing the wheelchair in a vehicle (Fig. 22 and 23)
During transportation, the wheelchair must always be facing in the direction
of travel while the user is sitting in the chair. An exception may be made if
the vehicle is fitted with a device designed in accordance with Bus Directive
2001/85/EG, Appendix VII, Item 3.8.3. In such cases, the user may travel
without a restraint system with the wheelchair facing in the opposite
direction to which the vehicle is travelling.
The wheelchair must always be secured to the vehicle in four locations.
Securing the wheelchair:
- Secure the straps around the tubing above the two castors. See Fig. 22. 2) Fasten the two straps around the rear axle. See Fig. 23. Please note! Do not attach metal hooks directly against the rear axle. 3) Pull the wheelchair backwards and fully tighten the rear straps to ensure the wheelchair is secured and cannot be moved forwards or backwards. 4) If the wheelchair is fitted with brakes, ensure these are activated. 5) We also recommend that the anti-tip devices are folded out. 6) Ensure that all straps and bands are fully fastened to the profile rail on the floor of the vehicle. 7) Check that all straps and belts have been tightened sufficiently.

TRANSPORTATION Securing the user (Fig. 24 and 25)
If the user remains in the wheelchair during transportation, we recommend that
the backrest is level with or above the user’s shoulders. The user must be
secured in the vehicle using a three-point seatbelt in order to minimise the
risk of injury to the head or chest in conjunction with braking or potential
collision. The vehicle’s seatbelt must remain in contact with the user’s body.
Seatbelts may not be separated from the user’s body by any part of the
wheelchair. See Fig. 24 and Fig. 25. Unsecured accessories in the wheelchair
must be removed in order to minimise the risk of injury to the user or fellow
passengers.

MAINTENANCE
Your Panthera model was designed for rigorous daily use over a number of
years, and as such, some parts must be regularly checked. If using your
wheelchair in more demanding environments, such as sand or saltwater, you must
examine and clean your wheelchair more often than what is specified below.
Storage When storing your wheelchair for four months or more, ensure it is
kept in a dry, warm area. After storage, check the tyre air pressure and the
condition of the upholstery.
Ongoing maintenance For ongoing maintenance, you will need the following: ·
car shampoo or detergent. · degreasing agent (for removal of severe dirt). ·
multi-purpose oil, for example, CRC 5-56.
Once a month, you must: · Wipe the wheelchair chassis over with car shampoo or
detergent using a damp cloth. To remove severe dirt, use a degreasing agent.
After cleaning, lubricate all movable parts with oil. · Clean the Castor fork
casing (between the wheel and the fork). Hair and dust, etc. often accumulate
here which can damage the bearing. Use a 4 mm Allen key in order to loosen the
screw. Remove the bolt and detach the Castor. Clean the washers between the
wheel and the fork and wipe the outside of the wheel bearing with a cloth.
Apply a drop of oil to each bearing. When finished, reassemble the components.
· Lubricate the rear wheel’s quick release. Remove the rear wheel by pressing
the quick release button and pulling the wheel straight off. Distribute a few
drops of oil over the quick releases at the hub of the rear axle. If you drive
in rain, sand, salt or slush, or rarely remove the rear wheel, you should
lubricate the quick releases more regularly. · Pump up the tyres. Unscrew the
cap from the tyres’ air valves. Fill the tyres with air at the correct
pressure using a suitable valve adaptor (see Technical facts). · Check that
all the screws and nuts are securely fastened. Tighten them where necessary. ·
Ensure the wheelchair has not sustained any damage. In the event of damage,
immediately contact your local supplier or the team at Panthera AB.
Twice a year, you must: · Lubricate the movable parts of the brakes with a few
drops of oil. · Lubricate the bushing at the joint of the backrest. Use two 10
mm cap keys in order to hold down the bolts and loosen the nuts. Lubricate the
bushings with a few drops of oil. When finished, reassemble the components. ·
Wash the upholstery when necessary. Machine wash the seat upholstery, backrest
upholstery and seat cushion cover at 40°C. Before washing, attach the male
velcro to female to prevent the upholstery to get rugged by the velcro.
Help with service and repair For help with service and repair, contact your
local supplier first (Assistance centre). You can also contact the team at
Panthera AB if you wish. Instructions for reconditioning can be downloaded at

Replacement of wear parts (Fig. 26 and 27)
Wear parts such as tyres, inner tubes and Castors can be ordered from
Panthera, with the work carried out at home for those able to do so.
Otherwise, contact your wheelchair provider or Panthera. www.panthera.se
To replace these yourself, do as follows:
Replacing tyres and inner tubes: (Fig. 26)
- Order parts from Panthera in the correct dimension. 2) Remove the rear wheel by pressing the quick release button and pulling the wheel straight off.
- Remove the tyre and inner tube using suitable tools. The method is the same
as that used for changing the tyre and inner tube on a bicycle wheel. 4)
Carefully fit the inner tube and tyre to ensure the inner tube is not
punctured. Pump up the tyre. 5) Reattach the wheel to the wheelchair, taking
care to ensure the quick release button springs out so the wheel is securely
fastened to the hub. Pull the wheel outwards to ensure it is firmly attached.
Spin the wheel to ensure the tyre has been fitted correctly and the wheel is
completely circular.
Replacing Castors: (Fig. 27) - Order parts from Panthera in the correct dimension. 2) Detach the Castor using a 4 mm Allen key. Observe how the Castors’ bushings are mounted there is a right (1) and a left (2) version. 3) When attaching the new Castor, hold down both bushings using your thumb and index finger and then guide the Castor into the fork track. At reassembly of castor wheel after cleaning or service you should always check the bolt for thread locking (blue, red or green colour), which indicates sufficient thread locking. If the tread locking is missing, always order a new bolt or apply a small amount of weak thread locking. 4) Tighten fully using a 4 mm Allen key. Ensure that the Castor turns easily.
