Rev.2.0
5.0 Preparing your wheelchair for use
5.1 Handling the wheelchair
NOTE: To dismantle the chair for transport or storage no
tools are required.
The list of components when dismantled: (components
below are related to the maximum detachable parts and
dependent on the type of seating system chosen):
1 pair of armrests
1 pair of leg rests, or single centre mount leg rest
with flip-up footplate
1 backrest (Jay/ Jay Comfort)
1 drive unit with seat frame.
WARNING!
Make sure, when the chair is stored or left in the car or
anywhere else, the controller is switched off and the
freewheel mechanisms are engaged.
CAUTION!
If there is a need to lift the drive unit use the rear castor
arm and the drive wheel. Caution should be taken if the
chair is in freewheel.
To remove the control pod:
Loosen the adjustment screw on the control arm and
slide the arm out of the bracket, (Fig 5.1). Place the
controller and arm in a safe place until required.
R-net: Locate the in-line bus connector. Gently pull the
plugs apart to separate the loom, (Fig. 5.2).
To reconnect the hand control just repeat the process in
reverse.
5.2 Re-Assembling
Flip up or replace the backrest. Put your armrests back
in and connect the remote controller. Attach the hangers
or flip down the footplate. Make sure your freewheel
mechanisms are engaged. Now you are ready to drive
the chair.
WARNING!
Never lift the wheelchair by the armrests or the leg rests,
since they are detachable and harm could be done to the
user or to the wheelchair.
5.3 Emergency freewheel
Jive Up / QM-710 Stand Up
By pulling the freewheel levers outwards from both
sides of the base (Fig.5.3-5.4), the drives become
disconnected from the motors.
DANGER!
This may only be used in an emergency, or if you need
to manually push your wheelchair. It is not intended for
permanent use or to push the wheelchair up/down a
slope with the user sitting in it.
NOTE: The chair’s automatic braking system will not
work unless the brake release levers are in the “drive”
position.
WARNING!
Motor surfaces can be hot after use. Be careful not
to touch the motor casing when disengaging the
freewheel.
Never attempt to disengage the freewheel mechanism
whilst sitting in the wheelchair, especially on a slope.
