2.5 General safety instructions
Before each use be sure to check:
• frame, back tubes, attachments and accessories for visible damage, bends, cracks or mis-
sing/loose scews,
• wheels/quick release axles for rm t,
• sucient tire pressure, tire tread,
• functionality of the brakes,
• rm t of the angle adjustment elements/ eccentric clamps,
• rm t of the seat plate/ the back/ the foot plate,
• functionality of the anti-tipper/ seat and back straps,
• if all previously disassembled parts are re-inserted or rmly locked.
There is a risk of injuries (e. g. such as bruising) on all rotating or folding parts, including
adjustments, repairs and transport.
All wheelchair parts are to be handled with care. Do not throw or drop removable parts.
Before repairs or adjustments are made, clean/didinfect the wheelchair and secure it from
tipping over and/or falling down.
Only use original spare parts.
Safety nuts may only be used once. Lossened safety nuts must be replaced by new ones.
Only the regular maintenance of all safety-relevant parts on the wheelchair by a qualied
rehab workshop protects against damage and maintains our manufacturer's warranty.
Combination with products from other manufacturers
The wheelchair may only be combined with the electrical auxiliary drives approved by the
manufacturer. The responsibility of restrictions or adjustmens as well as the attachment itself
lies with the supplier of the additional system or the specialized retailer. Please ask about the
conditions with the manufacturer of the auxiliary drives.
In combination of wheelchair and electric auxiliary drive, certain strains occur that can
lead to damage to the wheelchair. Slowly approach abstacles and carefully overcome them so
that little force is applied to the casters, rear wheels and the wheelchair as a whole.
Lifespan
Use beyond the specied lifespan increases the residual risks and should only be carried
out after careful, qualied consideration by the operator. If the useful life is reached, the user
or a responsible person should contact the specialist dealer. There you can be informed about
the possibility of reprocessing the product.

3.1.1 Centre of gravity
3.1 Assembly Group Wheels
(1)To set the centre of gravity
• remove both rear wheels,
• remove all screws (A)
• displace the perforated plate in the
alternative holes (B).
• Displacement must occur parallel on
both sides.
• Replace screws and tighten them.
After every change made on the rear
wheels, the wheel lock must be newly adjust-
ed.
Slowly go to the maximum and from the
user (!) wanted point of wobbliness.
(1)
(A) (B)
The more you move the casters back, the higher the risk that the wheelchair will tip for-
ward when getting in or out.
The more you move the rear wheels with the perforated plate forward, the higher the risk that
the wheelchair could tip backward.
Please make sure, that with the seat slant the grip point and grip direction are not aected by a
too high placement of the rear wheels.
3.1.2 Seat height in front
(2)
(A)
(B)
(2) The seat height is set by the position of the
casters in the caster fork.
• remove the connection caster/caster
fork (A) completely,
• mount the casters on both sides in the
wanted holes (B),
• retighten all screws.
After every change you must check the vertical
steering head slant and, if necessary correct it
(see chapter steering head slant).
In the mounting parts of the casters,
hair, lint, dirt, etc. can collect, whereby the
casters become hard to use. Remove the
casters in short intervals and clean the forks,
axles and the husks thoroughly.
Precede the same with synthetic forks.

3.1 Assembly Group Wheels
3.1.3 Seat height in back, seat slant
After each change made on the rear wheels the functionality of the wheel lock must be
checked and the casters must be newly adjusted.
Generally, the seat height in back is about 2-3 cm lower as in front, for a safe and comfortable
seat position with a good distribution of the seat pressure and to avoid a “sliding out”. However,
other settings in individual cases can also be useful.
(A)
(1) (2)
(C)
(B)
• (1) Remove the rear wheels,
• remove the side guards/skirt guards
with the screws (A) (easily remove the
desk side guard)
• (2) remove the quick-release axle tting
including all washers in the alternative
holes (C)
• and retighten all screws. (tightening
torque nuts M18 tting 35Nm).
• Mount the side guards and place the
rear wheels back in the quick-release
axle.
The ttings must stick out of the perforated plate at the same length on both sides. The ttings
can only stick out so that the side distance of the tires to the side guard is as low as possible,
however a min. of 10mm.
3.1.4 Steering head slant
After every change on the rear wheel, the
steering head slant must be newly adjusted.
To adjust the caster adapter:
• (3) remove all screws (A) on both (!)
sides,
• remove both screws (B).
• By tuning the adjust washer (C) (with a
at head screw driver) place the adapter
in a vertical position (using an angle).
• Retighten all screws; screws (A) with 9
Nm, screw (B) with 7 Nm.
A falsely set steering head slant can lead to the
(3)

(C)
(A)
casters shaking back and forth and can lead to hindering curve rides (from casters).
