· Secure the tilt support in the holding device [a] with the
quick pins [b]. Press the locking mechanism in the center
of the locking pin and push the pin entirely into the holding
device.
· Check whether the quick pins [b] securely rest in the holding
device [a]. You are not supposed to be able to remove them
without pressing the locking mechanism in their center.
· To remove the tilt support, work your way back step by step.
Driving the e·motion without attached tilt
support is not safe, thus not admissible.
The CE conformity for the e·motion is only valid in combination
with the tilt support.
In addition, the following points have to be taken in
consideration:
· Assembly and repairs as well as any other work done on the
e·motion must be carried out by Ulrich Alber GmbH or any
other personnel authorized by
.
· The lower part of the tilt support must be attached high
enough so that their wheels can rotate freely when the
wheelchair is on a horizontal level.
· The user must pay particular attention to the following:
a) The tilt support must be unobstructed.
b) Please be extra careful when driving over obstacles
higher than 40 mm and narrower than the sidewalk’s curb.
c) The critical height of obstacles must be tested individually
for each wheelchair equipped with the e·motion and his/her
driver.
d) The point at which a certain wheelchair equipped with
the e·motion tilts backwards at its back axle must also be
tested by its user. The critical limit is reached at the point
where the tilted wheelchair falls backwards.
Important safety note
Due to blows or impact caused, for example, by unintentionally
setting down on too high kerbs, particularly the toothed
sections [d] in the anti-tipping supports may be subject to
above average loading. Consequently the condition of the
teeth (see illustration for the precise position) should be
checked at least once a week.
