2. Starting up
The twion wheels and any accessories you ordered will be fitted to your wheelchair by
Alber or your specialist dealer and delivered so that they are ready for operation. There-
fore, on both sides of your wheelchair there are new brackets [7] with wheel receivers for
the two twion wheels to be inserted (see chapter 2.1). Please keep the manual wheelchair
wheels you have used until now so that they can be used again if needed.
On delivery of your twion your specialist dealer will show you how to operate the system
and any accessories you ordered. You will also be given this operating manual which, in
addition to the technical information, also contains important driving instructions.
The brackets [7] must be attached to the wheelchair by Ulrich Alber
GmbH or its authorised specialist dealers.
Regularly check the brackets [7] to ensure that they are firmly
secured to the wheelchair. If a screw connection has become loose,
contact your authorised specialist dealer to have it retightened.
Ulrich Alber GmbH provides brackets of various design (single-part
or multiple-part brackets). The bracket shown in the diagrams of
this operating manual may, therefore, deviate from that attached to
your wheelchair.
