Self-propelled wheelchair FAQs

What is a self-propelled wheelchair?

The clue is in the name… A self-propelled wheelchair is designed to be used independently by the user. Typically equipped with push rims, it allows the user to push and steer the wheelchair themselves without relying on somebody else to push them.

How to use a self-propelled wheelchair

These types of wheelchairs allow the user to use their upper body strength to manoeuvre themselves independently. You’ll need quite good upper body strength and a strong technique to ensure that you don’t injure yourself. Put your hands on the push rims behind your hips and push firmly forwards with a slight flick of your wrists. Release the rims and allow your arms to loop backwards to reset and push again.

What is the difference between a self-propelled and transit wheelchair?

The main difference is the way they are propelled. As we’ve mentioned, self-propelled wheelchairs are designed for the individual to move the chair themselves, while transit wheelchairs must be pushed by an attendant. There are also powered wheelchairs, which are propelled by electric motors and provide a bit more power for navigating tricky terrain.
