More Information
Features:
Stay flexible – two wheelchairs in one!
If the situation requires it, the E-fix can also be easily moved by hand: You uncouple the drive wheels with a handle and your wheelchair can be pushed by hand as usual – either using the push rims or by an attendant. The manual wheels can usually still be used too.
Requires little space
The components of the lightweight and compact add-on drive can be quickly removed from the wheelchair without the need for tools. Everything is quickly and easily arranged. Even in the smallest of boots.
Push boundaries
Getting out and about and enjoying daily life is second nature to most people. But what if illness or age means that you are no longer able to leave your own apartment without assistance? A useful helper is the E-fix electric add-on drive, which turns your wheelchair into a small and lightweight electric wheelchair. You can then independently cover greater distances and handle slopes without stress or external assistance.
Outdoors made easy
The powerful drive wheels of the E-fix are great for outdoor use too. Walks with your partner or friends, a stroll around the town – with E-fix, you can do all this and more. The speed is set to anything between 0.5 and 6 km/h using the easy-grip controller. As a rule, the slower you drive, the swifter the wheelchair reacts. You steer, the E-fix responds!
