Introduction

WARNING!
Danger of accident and severe injuries.

severe injuries.
▸ Changes to the wheelchair may only be carried out by the
dealer.
To guarantee the required safety and reliability, all wheelchairs must be
comprehensively checked once a year.
In part, assembly and adjustment require extensive experience. For this
reason, the following assembly instructions have been split into three
categories:

Spare parts and adaptations
All spare parts can be purchased from Küschall®s Customer Services.
An electronic spare parts catalog is available by logging onto
www.kueschall.com. Only original spare parts may be used. Installing
additional adaptations to a Küschall® wheelchair requires the prior written
approval of Küschall® AG.
Tightening Allen screws
Allen keys are not designed for greater forces. When tightening or loo-
sening an Allen screw, it is therefore advisable to apply force to the nut to
prevent the hexagon socket from being damaged.
Tightening and loosening
Turn the nut with a socket spanner (only use a straddle spanner if there
is insufficient space) and merely hold the screw tight with the Allen key.
