2.6 Removing the wheels
The e-motion wheels will usually remain on your wheelchair. If they need to be removed
(for example to facilitate transport), then please proceed as follows:
Switch off the e-motion wheels if not yet done (see Chapter 2.4).
•
When using Alber anti-tippers: •
Lift your wheelchair as described in Chapter 10.2 and operated the anti-tippers.
Reach with the fingers into the opening between wheel hub and battery pack as
•
shown in the graphic.
Push on the locking mechanism [4] located in the center of the wheel hub and pull
•
the e-motion wheel with care off the wheelchair.
Once both wheels have been removed, you can return the anti-tippers to the original
•
position as described in Chapter 10.2.
Without Alber anti-tippers: •
Lift the wheelchair by its push handles.
Reach with the fingers into the opening between wheel hub and battery pack as
•
shown in the graphic illustration.
Push on the locking mechanism [4] located in the center of the wheel hub and pull
•
the e-motion wheel with care off the wheelchair.
When removing an e-motion wheel, never pull on its push rims [9].
This could damage the sensors attached to them.
