3.1 Amasis racing wheelchair
Amasis is the ulmate bid for maximum transfer of the athlete’s forces. In athlecs as well as in long distance
races, Amasis race chair has since 2004 won many victories for the Paralympic physician and beat world records.
Amasis has a frame in tempered 7020 lightweight aluminum. With its extra-thick frame, the racing wheelchair
becomes rigid and robust, thus transferring all the athlete’s forces to energy and propulsion.
Amasis is tailored to the individual user’s needs and wishes. Wolturnus oers several upgrade opons, which
will be menoned in secon 7. Accesories and Equipment.

The skiing chair is a revamped version of the amasis race wheelchair. With a higher, and more upright seang
posion, the chair is opmised to be driven with ski poles, for training in the o-season.
It shares the strong and lightweight 7020 aluminium frame with the Amasis, but with a shorter axle distance it
is more maneuverable for riding in winding terrain.
The hinged steering unit makes it easy to fold away when geng into the chair.
Wolturnus design and produce the devices in Wolturnus’ facilies in Nibe, Denmark. The devices are made by
hand, and therefore minor dierences in shape, size, or color can occur. This is a result of the handmade process,

it will not aect the overall aesthec of the device or its ability to be used as intended. Welds are not removed.

8.3 Changing a Tire
If a re is punctured, the user or a helper may be able to change it without assistance. The procedure requires
having strong hands, praccal ability and suitable tools. It is advisable to have a puncture repair kit and an air
pump for emergencies (excluding situaons with puncture proof res). Suitable air pumps, puncture repair kits
or puncture sprays that ll the re with expanding foam can be purchased at most bicycle shops.
Removing res and tubes
• Gently pull the re edge over the edge of the rim with a re lever (or two, if it is sing very ghtly). Take
care not to damage the rim or the tube (Image 14).
• Screw o the valve nut and pull the valve out from the rim and the rim tape.
• Pull out the tube from between the re and the rim (Image 15).
Repair and check-ups
• Repair the tube according to the instrucons in the repair kit or replace it with a new tube.
• Before remounng the re and tube, make sure that no foreign objects that may have caused the puncture
are caught in the rim or re.
• Ensure that the rim tape is intact. It protects the tube against damage from the spokes.
• Push the tube into place between the re and the rim.
Mounng res
• Gently pull the clear re edge over the edge of the rim. Starng with the valve.
• Check that there are no twists at all in the tube, otherwise air can get out.
• Work the whole way around unl the last secon of the re edge is taut and can be edged into place with
one or two levers.
Aer storage of the wheelchair for a longer period of me, perform maintenance accordingly.
INFORMATION
The wheelchair must not be used in salt water.
Avoid geng salt, sand and other dirt that can
cause damage in the wheel bearings, caster
mounng bracket or rear wheels. If this hap-
pens, the bearings should be replaced.
NOTICE
Do not wet-wash. Do not use high-pressure
equipment or a water jet. The wheelchair com-
ponents must not be put in a washing machine.
NOTICE
Do not use corrosive cleaning agents, solvents or
hard brushes.
NOTICE
Clean the seat and back upholstery, cushions,
handles and armrest before disinfecng.

Pumping res
• Check on both sides that the tube is not caught between the re edge and rim.
• Push the valve lightly in and pull It out again to make sure that it is not caught on the re edge.
• Fill the re with air to the point where it is sll possible to press it in with a thumb. If the control lines on
both sides of the re indicate the same distance to the rim edge, the re is centred. If the re is not centred,
let some air out and adjust the re unl it is centred. Now pump up the re to its maximum working pres-
sure (see the side of re) or at least 3.5 bars (350 kPa). Then screw the dust cap on, ghtly.
Ensure that the res have the correct pressure before using the chair.The maximum air pressure limit is
marked on the side of the re. It must always be on a minimum of 3.5 bars (350 kPa) on the rear wheels.Like
push wheel locks, the knee-lever wheel locks are only eecve when the air pressure is suciently high and
when they are correctly posioned.(When locked, the brake pad should push the re in 5mm (allowing for
technical alteraons).
CAUTION!
