Zenit Aesthetically light Information for users Zenit Ottobock 1
My name is Frank. I m carrying on a family tradition as a passionate architect. I have a penchant for aesthetic design, both in my work and in my personal life. That s why it s important to me that everyday objects are aesthetically pleasing. Just like my Zenit, which accompanies me through my busy and varied life. Frank Having inherited the architecture gene from his father, Frank also acquired additional knowledge in civil engineering and legal sciences during his early semesters. After his traffic accident, however he knew that barrier-free building would become the focal point of his work. 2 Ottobock Zenit

During my spare time I really like to get inspired by architectural features and peculiarities as well as museums focusing on the art of building. The Rhine region alone offers plenty of opportunity to do so. Zenit Ottobock 5
At the pinnacle of success Anyone who takes a closer look at Frank s day-to-day work has to ask themselves how the young architect can handle so many demands. He can. That much is certain. The completely normal craziness of the architect s office, his expert appraisal work and seminar activities is what drives him to perform at his best. The fact that Frank has been in a wheelchair since his accident scarcely seems to matter here... except when he is entrusted with drafting a barrier-free building project and is able to use his own wealth of experience to inform the design. Even if we in Germany are still far behind countries like Spain and France, says Frank, the issue of accessibility is becoming increasingly important in our country s public sector and that s how it should be. The architect knows what he s talking about, having just returned from a holiday in France where he was able to get the latest on construction for people with disabilities in southern Europe. His Zenit wheelchair went along for the ride, of course, which Frank says works best when you notice it least. Back home in Germany s Rhine region, his desk overflows with ongoing projects every time he s away, as well as new enquiries ranging from plans for detached houses to multi-family dwellings and barrier-free public buildings. Besides this, there are also numerous enquiries for expert assessments. In parallel, Frank is a sought after speaker for various seminar providers. Just his completely normal craziness, really. 6 Ottobock Zenit
I have considerable credibility amongst my clients and associates when it comes to barrier-free building. No two days are the same Whether he is drafting projects at his office, lecturing on accessible construction or visiting his current building sites Frank considers it important to shape his everyday life self-sufficiently.

The incredible Zenit Rigid-frame feeling that folds in no time When you ve got a modern folding wheelchair with a rigid-frame look, you can certainly expect it to be extremely flexible when it comes to adapting to your active everyday life. Because there s often little time for unfolding your wheelchair when you reach your destination, the Zenit only requires one hand and is ready to go in no time. Zenit Ottobock 9
Your benefits Are features like an attractive design and easy handling important to you? Then the new Zenit could become your new everyday companion. Let s take a closer look at six of its features. The body s centre of gravity is top priority The Zenit is designed in such a way that you can make the fine adjustment of the wheelbase 1.2 cm more active or passive by rotating the rear wheel adapter. This benefits both experienced users, who are already familiar with adjusting their centre of gravity, as well as first-time users. Continuous adjustment through the frame allows for optional fine-tuning. With our CLT version, the permanently welded drive adapter saves an additional 8.9 kilogrammes of the Zenit s total weight. 10 Ottobock Zenit
Precise adjustment of the front wheels The new front wheel adapter allows the front wheels to be set precisely and incrementally and thereby prevents any imbalances between the wheels. Foldable and angle-adjustable the Zenit s back An adjustment range of 20 (adjustable in 5 stages) allows for individual adaptation of the back support to your specific needs. You and your technician will decide which angle is right for you. Folding down the back section when folding your Zenit results in an incredibly small package size. Zenit Ottobock 11
