Brakes on a wheelchair typically function through a manual lever mechanism that engages a pad or clamp against the wheel, creating friction to prevent movement. Users can apply the brakes by pushing or pulling the lever, which locks the wheels in place, ensuring stability when the wheelchair is stationary. Some wheelchairs may also have attendant-operated brakes for additional control.
