go further
and experience as
full a life as possible
with a drive-frompowerchair
solution
You can travel so much further with one of
the powerchairs in this range. The optional Etac
Automatic Tie-down System allows you to drive
any adapted vehicle from the chair itself. This
unique system uses the power supply of the
chair to lock itself firmly to an anchor point fixed
to the floor of the vehicle without the need for
additional electrics or wiring. Switching back to
14
the original vehicle seat is easy with the optional
Etac Undercarriage System.
Whether you are driving or travelling as a
passenger, the Etac Automatic Tie-down System,
which has been tested and approved by the UK
Road Transport Laboratory, will make you feel
safe and secure.
