1. INTRODUCTION
Netti III XHD is a comfort wheelchair meant
for both indoor and outdoor use.
In Alu Rehab we presuppose that
wheelchairs are chosen based on a
thorough assessment focusing on the
needs of the user and demands from the
environment.
It is therefore important to know about
the possibilities and restrictions of the
wheelchair. Netti III XHD is a wheelchair
designed for users with the need for
comfort and relief. The combination
between the seating system and the
ergonomic solutions in the frame
construction, offers many possibilities for
adaptation and adjustments.
The wheelchair is constructed for indoor
and outdoor use, and offers the possibility
to vary the sitting position from activity to
rest using tilt and recline functions.
Max user weight:
Netti III XHD - 200 kg
When mounting accessories such
as power kit etc, the weight of the
accessories must be subtracted from the
max user weight.
Specifications varies between
countries.

1.3 QUALITY AND
DURABILITY
The disability of the user as well as the
level of maintenance does foremost
decide the durability of the wheelchair.
Thus, the durability will vary depending
on these two factors.
1.4 THE ENVIRONMENT AND
WASTE DISPOSAL
Alu Rehab and its suppliers wish to
protect the environment.
This means:
• That we avoid using
environmentally
harmful substances and processes
to the greatest extent possible.
• That Alu Rehab’s products are
ensured a long service life and a high
degree of flexibility - to benefit the
environment and economy.
• That all packaging can be recycled.
• That the wheelchair was designed
to be separated into its component
materials - to make recycling easier.
Contact your local recycling
agent to get correct information how
to handle in your area.
TEMPERATURE RANGE
Netti III XHD wheelchair is designed for
temperature range of -10°C to +40°C
1.1 AREAS OF USE/INDICATIONS
FOR NETTI III XHD
Netti III XHD is a multi- functional wheelchair
for partially or fully immobile persons with
physical and/or mental disabilities. It provides
a means by which a disabled person who
requires the possibility to vary the sitting
position from activity to rest will profit from
using tilt and recline functions. It is designed
for users with the need for comfort and relief.
The combination between the seating system
and the ergonomic solution in the frame
construction offers many possibilities for
adaptation and adjustments.
The disabilities may have multiple causes.
Netti III XHD has an adjustable seat and back
angle, thus facilitating for the user change of
position, mobilization or posture correction
(stabilization), wherever the following
functional impediments with their multiple
possible causes are present:
• limited or lacking mobility
• limited or lacking muscle power
• limited movement range
• lacking or limited trunk and body stability
• hemiplegia
• rheumatic-type disorders
• craniocerebral injuries
• amputations
• other neurological or geriatric disorders.
If our standard solutions does not cover
you needs, please contact our customer
service for Netti customized solutions.
1.2 CONTRA INDICATIONS
With strongly muscular spasticity we
recommend the Netti Dynamic System which
offers a frame construction that follows the
movement pattern of the user.
Ignoring this advice could in unfavourable
circumstances lead to the deformation or
fracture of metal parts in the area of the back
tube, the leg rests or the arm rests.

6.4 FRONT CASTORS
Removing
• Press the release button under the front
fork (alternative on new version: on top of
the bearing house).
Mounting
• Lead the quick release axle into the
bearing house. Pull the fork slightly to
ensure that the fork is fully locked.
Sand and sea water (salt used for
gritting in the winter) can damage the
bearings of the front castors. Clean the
wheelchair thoroughly after exposure.
6.5 SEAT HEIGHT AT THE FRONT
The seat height depends on:
• Size of front castors.
• Size of front fork.
• Check the angle of the castor bearing
house.
In chapter 5 the overview shows that you
can choose between several models of both
front castors and front forks. To change the
height of the front castors - unfix the wheel
and replace it in the required position in the
front fork.
Angle of bearing house
Correctly adjusted angle of the front fork
is important to achieve good manoeuvring
qualities of the wheelchair. Loosen the two
screws on the inside of the frame enough to
adjust the eccentric nuts. Angle the bearing
house, so that it stands 90° relative to the
ground. Tighten the screws with 16 Nm
1 pc 5 mm Allen key
The bearing house can not be adjusted
in height.
Check and adjust the position of the
anti tip if necessary.
6.6 SEAT HEIGHT AT THE REAR
The seat height at the rear depends on:
• Size of main wheel.
• Position of main wheel.
Main wheel
Unfix the hub bushing, including washer and
nut, and mount it in required position in the
main wheel bracket.
2 pcs 24 mm open-end spanner
Make sure that the nut on inside of
frame totally wreathes the wheel
bushing.
When the seat height is changed, make
sure that the bearing house of the front
castors are adjusted to vertical position
to the ground. (See chapter 6.5)

The risk for tipping increases when the
main wheel is moved forward in the
main wheel bracket.
Check the position of anti tip.
Readjust the brakes. (See chapter
6.17).
6.7 BACK REST
• Unfold and lift the back rest up and fit the
gas strut into the bracket.
• Secure the back rest by pushing the
locking bolt in from the side, through the
bracket and gas strut head.
If the gas strut does not seem to fit,
use the lower horizontal bar on the back
rest to compress the gas cylinder. Hold the
recline handle pused in while you press the
bar towards the gas cylinder and thereby
compress it. Let the handle lose and fit the
gas cylinder into the gas strut head.
6.8 ADJUSTING THE SEAT DEPTH
The seat depth can be adjusted both
in the back and in the front of the seat.
Adjustments are done to give the user a
comfortable seating position with proper
lumbar support while the knee joint is
aligned with the leg support knee joint.
By adjusting the seat depth the chair
balance and the driving characteristics may
change. A well balanced chair is easy to
drive without easily tipping backwards.
Always start with adjusting the seat depth
backwards, then adjust the leg support
fixing bracket to make the leg support
knee joint align with the user knee joint. If
necessary the driving wheel position also
needs to be change.
The seat depth can be adjusted 100 mm in
the rear and 100 mm in front.
ADJUSTING SEAT DEPTH AT
THE REAR
Adjusting seat depth at the rear:
• The back rest hinge has 5 holes with
25 mm distance between them.
• The seat depth can be adjusted from
400-500 mm (Measured from front of
seat plate to backrest tube without back-
rest cushion).
• On the frame under the chair plate there
is mounted an extra locking head for the
gas strut.
• The short locking head covers seat
depth 400 mm, 425 mm and 450 mm.
• The long locking head covers seat
depth 450 mm, 475 mm and 500 mm.
(There is also a long back rest hinge
which covers longer seat depths. See
chapter 5).
• When changing the position of the back
rest hinge, also remember to change the
position of the gas strut under the chair.
The bracket has 3 holes. When the back rest
hinge is set in the shortest position, the gas
spring is placed in the front hole using the
short locking head.

For each position the back rest hinge is
pulled out, the gas spring is moved one
hole towards the rear. When the gas spring
reaches the rearmost hole with short locking
head, change to long locking head and start
from the front hole again.
When using the comfort seat plate it
is recommended to change seat plate
when changing seat depth. The seat
plate comes in depth: 400 mm, 430 mm
& 460 mm.
By using the Velcro adjustment straps in
the chair-back you can gain a few cm on
the depth.
Seat depth in the rear is adjusted as follows:
• Release the tilt gas strut by tilting the seat
all the way forward.
• Pull out the locking bolt for the backrest,
and place the back rest forward in the seat.
• Remove the screws holding the back rest
hinge, and set the hinge to a position
which gives the backrest the required
position. Do both sides at the same time.
• Replace the backrest screws band fix them
• Remember to move the gas strut as
described earlier in this chapter - to reach
90° back angle when the gas strut bottoms.
When adjusting the seat depth at the
rear, the screw in the backrest hinge
must be tightened with 14 Nm
6 mm Allen key
13 mm open-end spanner
If the user requires another back rest
angle than what is standard, it is
possible to change the position of the
gas strut in three positions under the
chair in front.
When changing seat depth, you also
change the tipping point of the chair.
This can be prevented by changing the
position of the main wheel in the main
wheel bracket. (See chapter 6.6).
Adjust anti-tippers accordingly -
chapter 6.10
6.9 ADJUSTING SEAT DEPTH AT
THE FRONT
It is possible to adjust the seat depth up to
100 mm at the front. By restless users the
extension piece should not be pulled out
more than 50 mm. Do the following:
• Unfix the screw holding the extension piece
for the leg support.
• Set the extension piece to the required
position.
• Fix the screws, tighten them with 25 Nm
6mm Allen key
By setting the extension piece to
different positions, it is possible to
compensate for a rotated pelvis or different
length of thighs.
6.10 ANTI-TIP
• Adjust the anti-tip so that it does not stick
outside the radius of the wheel.
• Pull the anti-tip out / rearwards from
chassis.
• Turn it down 180°.
• Lock it in position by moving forwards
with the spring tension.

My-Netti.de20 Model: Netti III XHD
Language: English Version: 2019-02
The anti-tips are delivered adjusted
according to ordered main wheel size
in standard position. If other
adjustments are carried out, anti-tips
have to be adjusted accordingly.
Adjusting anti-tip
The anti-tips must be adjusted whenever
the position or dimension of the main
wheels are changed.
Correctly adjusted anti-tips should be
positioned just on the inside of the radius
of the main wheel. Anti-tips are adjusted as
follows:
• Unfix the locking clamp on the anti-tip bar
using an Allen key.
• Pull or push the bar to required position.
• Fix the locking clamp.
• Do the same procedure on the opposite
side.
6 mm Allen key
Check that both anti-tips have the
same length. The gap between the
anti-tip wheels and the floor must be
20 - 30 mm.
If the anti-tip is positioned on the
outside of the main wheel radius, it
will interfere with curbs and stairs.
The anti-tip should always be used
for the safety of the user.
6.11 ADJUSTING ARM SUPPORTS
• Turn the arm support release handle to
the side and hold.
• Adjust the armrest to the required height
and release the handle. Lift or lower the
armrest slightly until it locks.
The arm pad and locking screw are
set in the middle position. This can be
adjusted to fit the user.
6.12 CUSHIONS
Cushions are fixed and adjusted on the
wheelchair using the Velcro.
It is imperative to correctly set-up
the cushion in order to ensure good
seating comfort
The cushion covers are washable and
thereby reusable. Follow the
instruction on the back of the
cushion for correct maintenance and
washing of the cushion.
