CONTROL BOX
The control box with LCD display (Fig.
11), necessary for wheelchairs with ad-
justments or special control options, in-
cludes a 'daily kilometre counter', a
speed indicator and a 3-digit LCD com-
bination lock used as a programmable
anti-theft device (see relevant section).
JOYSTICK
You determine the speed and direction
of travel while in motion by activating
the joystick [35], (Fig. 12).
Do not move the joystick out of the zero
position before the self-test has ended. –
The warning LED [29] Fig. 8, respec-
tively, the signalling bar [41] (Fig. 9) no
longer blinks. See 'Fault clearance' part
of 'Service' section if blinking continues.
Forward motion
Push the lever forwards until you attain
the desired speed.
The wheelchair will move off slowly or
quickly when you activate the joystick,
depending on the maximum speed set-
ting.
Reverse motion
Push the lever back until you attain the
desired speed.
POSITIONING AND REMOVAL
OF CONTROL BOX
Longitudinal adjustment:
Slacken the adjusting screw (A, Fig. 6)
and pull/push the control box [13] to
the desired position (marking indicates
max. point).
Removal:
Slacken the adjusting screw (A, Fig. 6)
and pull the control box [13] forwards
out of the guide.
!
Attention:
Operation of the wheelchair after
removing the control box is only per-
mitted when the therapy table is be-
ing lowered and raised! – Danger of
accidents!
Height adjustment
The height of the control box can be
adjusted after the adjusting screw (B Fig.
6) has been slackened (see 'Armrests'
section).
Braking to a standstill
Controlled braking:
Move the lever back towards the neu-
tral position in accordance with the re-
quired degree of braking.
Emergency braking:
Release the lever and allow it click back
into the neutral position of its own ac-
cord. – The wheelchair will then brake
over the shortest possible distance.
When carrying out this braking manoeu-
vre, take into account a braking dis-
tance of
approx. 1.0 m for 6 km/h version and
approx. 1.5 m for 10 km/h version!
This standard value may differ, de-
pending on the condition of the tyres, the
overall weight of the wheelchair and
the condition of the road surface.
Turning to the left and right
Move the lever to the left or right in
accordance with the desired turning ra-
dius
+
Remark:
The smaller the turning radius the
higher the reduction in speed.
