2. Warning
The user is reminded that they should carry out a self-assessment of the crical points associated with their
specific pathology, and with their parcular postural requirements, before proceeding with any adjustments or
use of the handbike. OFFCARR does not accept any responsibility for any damages caused by incorrect
seang in the handbike, or by features of sing in the wheelchair which are incompable with the user's
pathology.
The cushion provided IS NOT ANTI-SORE , it is made with expanded polyurethane with a density of 75
shore with a Nylon fabric cover.
Avoid contact of the handbike with water.Undesirable rust may occur on some metal parts and/or loss of
the safety features of the materials concerned.
The handbike must only be used for the sport it has been designed for, or for compable disciplines, and
not for transporng objects in general, and it must not be used in other contexts. This could be dangerous
insofar as some of the usual safety elements for the device in moon are absent (e.g. Parking brakes, etc.).
Allergies caused by contact with parts of the handbike should be reported.
Keep the handbike away from heat sources in order to avoid any of the components seng alight. The
coverings meet the criteria for the standard ISO 7176 16:2012.
Do not put your fingers into the spikes when the handbike is in moon.
Inflate the tyres to a pressure within the range indicated inside the tyre. If transporng by plane, it is
suggested that you deflate the tyres to avoid excess pressure.
The handbike must be regularly maintained, so that it is kept in good working condion but especially so
that the safety condions are upheld.
Inefficient maintenance and the improper use of the device may cause damages and injury to users.
Alteraons may invalidate the minimum safety condions.
The registraon of the device and the address of the manufacturer can be found on a small scker
located underneath the handbike’s lower frame. This scker must never be removed, at risk of invalidang the
product's guarantee.
The indicated life span of the wheelchair is 4 years under normal usage condions, subject to it always
being used by the same person and undergoing regular maintenance.

4.2 Front seat height adjustment
The handbike is shipped with a front height of 50 cm from the ground. Please note that this seng is the only
way to change the distance relave to the footplate.We therefore recommend verifying that this distance is
correct immediately aer selecng the desired seat inclinaon and adjusng the rear height in the same way:
To funcon properly, the carriage mount should be as parallel as possible to the ground. The distance between
the seat and ground can vary from 500 to 600 mm, and between 400 and 500 mm for the footplate. To set the
front height:
● Loosen but do not remove screws "F3" and "F4" (see 4.1)
● Unscrew and remove the “B” screw.
● Posion the front seat support at the same height as the rear (parallel to the ground), aligning the
holes in the plate
● Put the "B" screws back in place and ghten them properly.
● Tighten the F3 "F4" screws
4.3 Adjusng the seat inclinaon
The seat angle can be adjusted via two plates on either side of the seat.
● Loosen the F1 screws
● Unscrew and remove the "A" screws
● Select the new angle from the 4 possible posions
● Re-insert and ghten the A screws
● Tighten the F1 screws
These operaons must be carried out at the same me on both sides.

8

4.7 Leg strap assembly
The HB500 is equipped with a leg strap to keep the knees aached to the frame. On each end of the strap
there is respecvely a male and a female velcro patch.For assembly, we recommend pressing the male velcro
end of the strap onto the legs (velcro upwards) and running the strap around the legs so that the other end
with the female velcro aaches to the first, as shown in the photo:
4.8 Assembling the pelvic strap
The HB500 is designed to accommodate a 45° pelvic strap.This can be mounted on the backrest adjustment
bar, as shown in the diagram.
5. Tips and recommendaons for use
If needed, the padding can be washed at low temperatures. Nevertheless, avoid immersing the other,
mechanical parts of the wheelchair in water. Always clean the handbike thoroughly for maximum efficiency.

6. Maintenance, inspecons and checks
ATTENTION!
● Always ensure that the wheels are correctly locked (see par. 6.5).
● Always ensure that the lights, bell and reflectors are correctly posioned (see par. 6.2)
● The handbike should be regularly checked to ensure it remains efficient and safe.
● Insufficient maintenance and improper use of the device may cause damages and injury to people
or property.
● There is no real danger of personal injury when using the handbike as it has been designed to
reduce the risk of accidents during use or preparaon for use. However, as this is a specialist
product that could become dangerous if used in different contexts, we recommend using only
original or manufacturer-approved spare parts when replacing certain components.
● Should you encounter any difficules in finding spare parts on the market, please contact
DECATHLON.
Each week :
● Check the tyre pressures. On the side of each wheel cover, you’ll find the recommended tyre
pressure. A deflated tyre compromises the smooth operaon of the Handbike.
● Check the efficiency of the brakes (see par 6.3).
● Check that the gear and brake cables are not entangled.
Each quarter:
● Ensure that the rear wheel bearing bolts are securely fastened.
● Verify the efficiency of the bearings on the front and rear wheels and lubricate if necessary. We
recommend using silicon oil as a grease, as it's effecve and non-staining.
● Check the posion of the gear shi (see par.6.4).
6.1 R eplacing the tyre and air chamber
Disassembling the tyre and air chamber
● Deflate the tyre
● Install a special lever between the circle and the shoulder of the tyre, so that when the lever is lted,
the side of the wheel comes out (fig. 1 and 2)
● Install another lever 100 mm from the previous point and repeat the operaon (fig. 3)
● Slide the two levers around the whole circle to release the enre tyre.
● Remove the air chamber, starng with the side opposite the inflaon valve (fig. 4)
● Once the air chamber has been removed, you can easily remove the tyre to replace either or both of
them.
Assembling the air chamber and tyre
● Remove the air chamber (deflated) in the tyre (fig. 5).
● Insert the air chamber inflaon valve into the whole intended for this purpose, located on the circle.
● Around the whole circle, install the tyre, taking note of the direcon of the tyre, which indicates
whether it's the right or le drive wheel.
● Install the opposite shoulder over the tyre, starng from the point where the valve is, moving round in
both direcons.
● Insert the final part of the shoulder with the help of the levers intended for this, reversing the
instrucons shown in Fig. 3, Fig. 2, and Fig. 1.
● Inflate the tyre to the pressure indicated on its side.

6.2 Replacing the bearings
Disassembly
● The drive wheel bearings (6001 2RS) are mounted by applying pressure. To remove them, you simply
need to push them from the inside, using a pin dri and a hammer.
Assembly
● Posion a new bearing on the inner side of the hub, taking care to insert it evenly (it must be co-axial
with the hub, otherwise it won't go in).
● Before posioning the bearing, on the opposite side, you need to insert the quick removal axle into
the bearing which has already been inserted, so that the axle itself acts as a guide for the two
bearings. This way, you make sure that the hub and two bearings are co-axial.
6.3 Brake inspecon
To check the proper funconing of the brakes, first examine the integrity of each brake component (lever,
lining, clamp), then press the brake levers one at a me to check whether each independently acvates the
brake clamp.
OPEN AND CLOSED BRAKE CLAMP BRAKE LEVER
6.4 Derailleur inspecon
Raise the front wheel with a tripod so that it can turn freely. Move the levers in the direcon of travel, acvate
the derailleur by means of the two levers on the right-hand crank and check whether each gear change
11

corresponds to the relevant adjustment of the derailleur (you can feel whether the pedalling movement
becomes more difficult or easier depending on the direcon given).
DERAILLEUR LEVERS
6.5 Axle inspecon
Once the wheel has been mounted as shown below and the axle has been screwed in clockwise, pull the wheel
outwards and push it towards the inside of the chair to verify that there is no movement.
6.6 Lights, bell and reflectors inspecon
The front and rear (independent) lights are posioned on the HB500 in the locaons shown in the figure
below.One reflector is placed on each wheel as shown below.
