Does the viamobil fit to my wheelchair?
viamobil fits on most standard wheelchair models. A bracket is attached to the wheelchair frame into which the viamobil is inserted.
How do I steer the viamobil?
Thanks to the central drive wheel, which is perfectly aligned to the wheelchair’s centre of gravity, the wheelchair can be as easily steered
and manoeuvred as a strictly manual wheelchair. Changes of direction are initiated via the push handles – the electric drive will take care
of the rest.
How fast does the viamobil go?
The maximum speed can be preselected to any increment between 1 and 5.5 km/h. Every attendant can set the speed that suits him
or her best.
How does viamobil brake?
Like a speed controller, viamobil maintains the preselected speed even when going downhill, so no additional braking is required.
When the driving lever is released, viamobil slows down in a controlled manner until it comes to a complete stop. When standing, viamobil
also protects the wheelchair safely and reliably from unintentionally rolling away – even on inclines of up to 18%.
How far do I get with one charge of the battery?
Depending on the weight of the user, the topography and the surface of the road viamobil travels up to approx. 25 km (16 miles) with one charge of the battery.
Which max. slope can be travelled with a viamobil?
Depending on the weight of the user, the terrain and the ground surface, viamobil travels up to 20 km with one charge of the battery.
What is the max. allowed weight of the person in the wheelchair?
viamobil can handle uphill and downhill slopes of up to 18%. For safety reasons, however, anti-tippers on the wheelchair are compulsory for gradients exceeding 8%.
What is the maximum permissible weight of the person in the wheelchair equipped with viamobil?
viamobil is designed for a maximum user weight of 160 kg.
Can viamobil also be transported in a car?
Thanks to quick-release connections and handy components, removing viamobil from the wheelchair, stowing it in the boot and getting it ready to go again at the destination is easy and requires no tools or technical skills.
