Description

The Karma Ergo Lite 2 Tall sets a new standard for lightweight mobility with its blend of day-to-day practicality and long-term comfort. Built around the S-Ergo Seating System, it supports healthy posture and pressure distribution, while the Push & Pull attendant brake and crash-tested frame (ISO 7176-19) add confidence and safety in real-world use.

Despite its robust design and higher fit range, the Ergo Lite 2 Tall remains exceptionally easy to live with. The foldable frame, swing-away detachable footrests, and compact footprint make storage, car loading, and tight-space maneuvering simple for users and caregivers alike.

General Safety Rules

Always engage the brakes before transfers, parking on slopes, or when the chair is stationary.
Use seatbelts and tie-downs when the chair is used as a vehicle seat; follow ISO 7176-19 transport guidance.
Keep hands clear of moving parts (wheels, footrests, brakes) during transfers and folding.
Avoid steep or uneven terrain beyond your ability; descend slopes slowly and straight with brakes under control.
Do not stand on footrests; swing them away during transfers.
Check quick-release mechanisms (if equipped) and ensure wheels/footrests are securely latched before use.
Perform routine maintenance: tire pressure (if pneumatic), fasteners, bearings, brakes, and upholstery cleanliness.
In wet conditions, dry the chair after use to prevent slip risk and corrosion; store in a cool, dry place.
