Operation
7.1.3 control Panel
Adapting the control Panel to Arm Length
To adapt the control panel to the arm length of the user,
you must loosen the three screws on the underside of the
armrest (see fig. 8).
You can now slide the rail with the control panel back-
wards and forwards.

Adapting the control panel
Firmly re-tighten the screws after making adjustments.
nOTE !
If the control panel rail is too long, the protrud-
ing part can simply be cut off with a saw.
Mounting and removing the control Panel
The standard configuration has the control panel mounted
on the right side. If required, it can also be mounted on
the left armrest.
Spring sheet metal connects the control panel to the rail,
which is attached below the armrest.
First undo the hook and loop closures that fix the cable
of the control panel to the wheelchair. Then pull the con-
trol panel toward the front and off the rail. Disassemble
the rail from the armrest and reattach it on the other side.
Insert the control panel onto the rail and fix the cable to
the wheelchair by using the hook and loop straps.
ATTEnTIOn !
Cable damage!
Positioning the cable incorrectly can lead to
pinching and thus damage to the cable. The
cable must not be attached too tightly or too
loosely. Avoid bending or squeezing the cable.
