Attachment
Before attaching your handcycle, ALWAYS ENGAGE YOUR WHEEL LOCKS.
Pull back all four Socket Sleeves so that they click and hold in the open position.
Swing the Upper Arms away from you (toward the Wheel).
Holding onto the Top Tube, pull one of the Lower Arms toward you and latch the
Socket on to the lower Pawn. Repeat for the other side.
Lift the front casters o the ground by pushing the Top Tube away from your body
using one hand. With the other hand, swing one of the Upper Arms toward you
and click the Socket into place. Repeat for the other side.
Detachment
Before removing your handcycle, ALWAYS ENGAGE YOUR WHEEL LOCKS.
Push the Top Tube away from your body to relieve the weight from the Upper
Arms, and pull back the Socket Sleeve from one of the Upper Arms.
Move the Top Tube back and forth gently with one hand and pull the Upper Arm
away until it releases the Pawn. Swing it forward toward the Wheel.
Repeat for the other Upper Arm. As soon as it releases, all the weight of the
wheelchair is held up by your arm holding the Top Tube. Slowly lower the chair
until the front casters contact the ground. Swing the second Upper Arm away.
Holding on to the Top Tube with one hand, pull back the Socket Sleeve on one of
the Lower Arms and pull the Wing away from the Pawn. Repeat for the other side.
The handcycle is now completely detached from your wheelchair.
