The Start M1 Wheelchair (Variant 5FP) is a lightweight wheelchair that combines everyday practicality and comfort. With a drum brake, quick-release axle, seat cushion and pelvic belt, it is designed to provide safe mobility indoors and outdoors. Ideal for users who need a sturdy, easily adjustable wheelchair, as well as family members or caregivers who value easy handling, control when pushing and hassle-free transportation.
For everyday use, the Start M1 Wheelchair (Variant 5FP) impresses with its aluminium frame and integrated tipping aid – practical at curbs and thresholds. The Economy Ergo back upholstery can be adjusted in 5 positions, and the backrest with lumbar contour supports a more comfortable sitting posture. To accommodate different body sizes, the seat depth, back height and lower-leg length are adjustable; split, angle-adjustable footrests and a calf strap provide additional leg support.
For attendants, the drum brake offers greater control, especially on slopes or over longer distances. The antibacterial push handles support hygienic handling in day-to-day care. Flip-up, height-adjustable armrests and swing-away footrests make transfers easier. The quick-release axle makes it easier to remove the wheels for transport and storage – useful if the Start M1 Wheelchair (Variant 5FP) is regularly carried in a car.
