Each wheelchair user has their own ideas regarding the wheelchair type and accessories that
are correct for him / her, as well as the position in the wheelchair and the handling character-
istics. Therefore, the Avantgarde wheelchair for active use offers many options that permit the
wheelchair to be adapted according to your requirements. We recommend consulting your dealer
or therapist to determine the correct wheelchair settings for you.
The ultralight Avantgarde Ti 8.9 and Ti Ultra wheelchair models for active use have consistently
been fabricated with a light-weight construction. For this reason, any adjustment works must be
done with utomst care. It is of particular importance that the torque values for the screw con-
nections of high-strength aluminium alloys are observed (see table of torque values for aluminium
screw connections).
If you do not have of the proper tools (e.g. torque wrench), please contact your medical supply
dealer.

Before re-assembly and re-use of the aluminium screw connections, it must be ensured that
the threads are not damaged. It is recommended to use new aluminium screws for each
(re-)assembly. Please use a liquid thread lock substance for securing the aluminium screws
(e.g. Loctite® 241).
