2.1 Mounting the wheels
Different driving parameters can be assigned to each e-motion wheel. It is therefore
absolutely necessary to always mount the two e-motion wheels according to their identi-
fication on the left and right side of your wheelchair, respectively!
The stub axles [8] of the e-motion wheels are similar to the stub axles of your previously
used manual wheelchair wheels. Therefore, you may mount the e-motion wheels to your
wheelchair as you are used to.
Unless already done, place the battery pack [12] into the wheel hub and lock it with
•
the same (see Chapter 4.6).
Push on the locking mechanism [4] located in the center of the wheel hub and at the
•
same time push the stub axle [8] of the e motion wheel into the wheel receivers [15]
on the wheelchair.
You might need to turn the a-motion wheel a few millimetres around its axis to allow
•
the fins [7] located at the rear of the wheel to engage with the torque receiver.
Check if the e-motion wheel can be pulled out of the wheel receiver [15] without
•
pushing the lock [4]. If this is the case, the e-motion wheel is not seated correctly
in the wheel receiver [15] and must be reintroduced into the wheel receiver [15] as
described above.
Attach the second e-motion wheel on the other side of the wheelchair.
•
Before using or operating, confirm that the wheels have been properly seated. •
These few steps complete the mounting of the e-motion wheels on your wheelchair.
Operation or driving is only permitted with e-motion wheels that
are correctly engaged and seated in the wheel receiver [15].
Check the proper function of your wheelchair brakes [16] before
each drive. They must be adjusted correctly to the e-motion wheels
and be able to prevent the unintentional rolling away of the wheel-
chair at any time. Do not use or operate the wheelchair if the
brakes are not in proper working order.
Always mount the e-motion wheels according to their identification
on the left and right side of your wheelchair, respectively.
