Installation
1. Place nuts in predrilled battery box reinforcing plate holes and in the battery
box with the recess down.
2. Underneath, fit the 8 mm spacer and additional 3mm spacer onto lock plate
and put the five bolts (Dahl #502800) through the lock plate and spacers.
3. Mount the bolts in the nuts and tighten to a torque of 16-18 Nm.
⚠ Warning
Do not use any other bolts than those supplied from Dahl Engineering
(part#502800 which is quality 14.9,Torx key size 27). Standard countersunk M8
bolts will not be strong enough in the event of a collision.
4. Cut of excess thread. It is very important that the fitter checks that the length
of the bolts are correct. If bolts are made too short to reach through all
threads in the nuts – they will not have the strength to carry the load
required. If bolts are made too long the batteries or other wheelchair
components can be damaged. If bolts are cut too short replace them with
original Dahl bolts #502800 only.
5. Apply Loctite 222 (or an equivalent product) onto threads on all bolts.
6. Place plastic spacers, as shown inside the battery box, to avoid batteries
coming into contact with the nuts and bolt ends.
7. Perform final check by connecting the wheelchair to the docking station.
Make sure that lock plate is securely locked and that all release methods work
as intended.
A warning tone will sound if lock plate is not properly engaged.
