About the Wheelchair Car Carrier Cover
This product is designed to protect a wheelchair when it is on a wheelchair car carrier. It is perfect for short or long trips, holidays, or as a dust cover if your wheelchair is in storage.
It has a heavy duty, UV protected canvas material on the front, back and top. The sides are made from a heavy duty nylon material, which allows the material to be gathered in when the straps are fastened.
Although the canvas is waterproof, this is a sewn product and is open at the bottom, so it is not a 100% sealed product. However, it will offer great protection for a wheelchair against the elements and the sun. There is a clear plastic window on the front to allow an auxiliary number plate to be displayed.
This cover also works as an airline travel bag for wheelchairs. The wheels of the wheelchair can still rotate when the bags is on.
To Fit
- Undo all four buckles and place the cover over the wheelchair
- Fasten the two vertical buckle and tighten the straps
- Fasten the two horizontal buckles and tighten the straps
- Thread any excess straps through the securing loops
- Ensure the straps do not obscure the number plate.
