Service Manual
GENERAL
Introduction
This service manual is part of the instructions and contains the tech-
nical information for servicing, configuring and repairing a küschall®
wheelchair.
WARNING!
Danger of accident and severe injuries.
If the wheelchair is improperly set it can cause
accidents and severe injuries.
▸Changes to the wheelchair may only be carried out
by the provider.
To guarantee the required safety and reliability, all wheelchairs must
be comprehensively checked once a year.
In part, assembly and adjustment require extensive experience.
For this reason, the following assembly instructions have been split
into three categories:
Requirement Symbol
Easy – technical understanding required 
Intermediate – specialist knowledge required 
Dicult – specialist wheelchair assembly knowledge
and experience required

The required tools and their respective sizes are listed above each
instruction. The instructions include information on the torques with
which the respective screw connections must be tightened. Adhering
to the given torques requires the use of a torque spanner.
Tools Symbol
Allen key Ã3, 4, 5
Hexalobular key (Torx®) T15
Phillips screwdriver Ò2
Straddle spanner 10, 11, 19
Socket spanner/ring spanner 8, 10
Spare parts and adaptations
All spare parts can be purchased from küschall®Customer Services.
An electronic spare parts catalog is available by logging onto
www.kuschall.com. Only original spare parts may be used. Installing
additional adaptations to a küschall®wheelchair requires the prior
written approval of Küschall AG.
Tightening Allen screws
Allen keys are not designed for greater forces. When tightening or
loosening an Allen screw, it is therefore advisable to apply force to
the nut to prevent the hexagon socket from being damaged.
Tightening and loosening
Turn the nut with a socket spanner (only use a straddle spanner
if there is insucient space) and merely hold the screw tight with
the Allen key.

Service Manual
Tightening and loosening if there is no nut
If an Allen screw is directly screwed into a screw thread, the screw must be tightened
using an Allen key.
iEnsure that the Allen key is of good quality and not worn.
Torque
All screw connections must be tightened with the torques specified in the following
instructions.
Checks
Visual check
Check all components for cracks, especially the areas around joints and welded seams.
Checking the screw connections
Check all bolts with the torques specified in the instructions regularly, and adjust if
required.
CAUTION!
Several screw connections have been secured with thread locking adhesive. If these are
opened, they must be secured again using new thread locking adhesive.
High-strength and low-strength adhesives are available. For torque entries notice shall be
made whether an adhesive and which adhesive needs to be used.

OVERVIEW
OVERVIEW
Seat width (SB)
Available seat widths: SB 340 to 460 in 20 mm steps.
Changing the seat width is very complicated. The seat module, the
backrest, the real wheel axles and the footrest have to be replaced.
Seat depth (ST)
Available seat depths: ST 360 to 520 in 20 mm steps.
To alter the seat depth, the complete seat plate as well as the seat
cushion may need to be replaced.
Front seat height (SHv)
The front seat height is dependent on several factors that interact
with each other - Frames, forks and front wheel sizes.
Chap. Front wheels, Shift supporter on the frame,
Chap. Front wheels, Replacing a front wheel,
Chap. Front wheels, Replacing a front wheel fork,
Chap. Frame, Mounting frame and seat plate.
Rear seat height (SHh)
The desired seat height is achieved through the proper position on
the rear wheel fastener on the vertical brace. The vertical brace is
available in two sizes (short and long) covering seat heights from 370
to 490 mm.
The wheel position and the rear seat height are infinitely adjustable.
Chap. Rear wheels, Set axle position at the vertical brace.
Chap. Rear wheels,Tipping point adjustment.
Seat angle (SW)
The seat angle is determined by the dierence between the rear seat
height (SHh) and the front seat height (SHv).
