DIS-ASSEMBLY

To enable the chair to be carried in the boot of most cars, follow these instructions:

Step 1: Disconnect the Motor/Battery connector from the control box and remove the armrests. Release the locking lever.

Step 2: Remove the calf strap from the footrests. This is simply attached by Velcro fastening. Remove the footrests completely by releasing the cam latch situated on the inside of the footrest frame hanger. CAUTION: Do not drive the chair with the footrests in the unlatched position.

Step 3: Remove the kerb climber assembly (if fitted) as described.

Step 4: Detach the seat and backrest assembly as previously shown. When replacing the seat assembly, ensure the brackets are located correctly on the seat frame tube.

Step 5: Disconnect the motor leads and the connecting cables from the battery boxes. Carefully lift the battery boxes clear of the frame by the straps provided. Remove the battery tray. When refitting the battery tray it is important that it is correctly located on the support pins.

Step 6: Remove the detachable motors as described.

The disassembled chair is now ready to be loaded safely in a suitable vehicle. Reversing the procedure will allow the chair to be reassembled at your destination.

SPECIAL NOTE: Care must be taken when stowing the detached parts for transportation to ensure that no damage occurs, particularly to the motor assemblies and controller units.
