5.0 Preparing your wheelchair for use

5.1 Handling the wheelchair

NOTE: To dismantle the chair for transport or storage no tools

are required.

List of components when dismantled (components below are

related to the maximum detachable parts and dependent on the

type of seating system chosen):

1 pair of armrests

1 pair of legrests, or single centre mount legrest with flip-up

footplate

1 backrest (Std. Rehab/comfort seat only)

1 drive unit with seat frame.

5.2 Preparation for transportation or storage

First remove the legrests

if swing away legrests are

attached. In the case of a centre

mount leg rest, just flip up the

footboard. Lift off the armrests

(Fig. 5.1), disconnect the hand

control if necessary. Release

and lift off or fold down the

backrest at the frame (Fig. 5.2).

Now you can store the chassis

part. By releasing the freewheel

mechanism (Fig. 5.5 and Fig. 5.6)

on the left and right side of the

chassis you can move the drive

unit as close as possible to the

place you want to store it.

You can also drive the base

with the joystick up or down a

ramp into and out of a car for

transportation.

WARNING!

Make sure, when the chair is stored or left in the car or

anywhere else, the controller is switched off and the freewheel

mechanisms are engaged.

CAUTION!

If there is a need to lift the drive unit on the RWD and FWD

chair the big side frame tubes should be used. On the MWD

use the rear castor arm and the drive wheel. Caution should be

taken if the chair is in freewheel.

To remove the control pod;

VR2: Loosen the adjustment screw on the control arm and slide

the arm out of the bracket, (Fig 5.3). Place the controller and

arm in a safe place until required.

R-net: Locate the in-line bus connector. Gently pull the plugs

apart to separate the loom, (Fig. 5.4).

To reconnect the hand control just repeat the process in

reverse.

5.3 Re-Assembling

Flip up or replace the backrest. Put your armrests back in and

connect the remote controller. Attach the hangers or flip down

the footplate. Make sure your freewheel mechanisms are

engaged. Now you are ready to drive the chair.

WARNING!

Never lift the wheelchair by the armrests or the legrests, since

they are detachable and harm could be done to the user or to the

wheelchair.

5.4 Emergency freewheel

GROOVE F/R

By pressing and turning the release levers on both sides of

the base into the down position (Fig. 5.5) the drives become

disconnected from the motors.

GROOVE M

By releasing the locking lever and pulling the freewheel lever

backwards on both sides of the base (Fig. 5.6) the drives become

disconnected from the motors.

DANGER!

This may only be used in an emergency, or if you need to

manually push your wheelchair. It is not intended for permanent

use or to push the wheelchair up/down a slope with the user

sitting in it.

NOTE: The chair’s automatic braking system will not work

unless the brake release levers are in the “drive” position.

WARNING!

Motor surfaces can be hot after use. Be careful not to touch the

motor casing when disengaging the freewheel.

WA R NI NG!

Never attempt to disengage the freewheel mechanism whilst

sitting on a slope.
