Adjusting and removing armrests
The armrests are already assembled on the wheelchair
upon delivery. The armrest overlay can be adjusted as a
short or long arm support as needed (photo 12+13)
To set, press the spring button in the middle on the out-
side of the armrest overlay (photo 14); this can now be
pushed into the desired position.

The spring button must lock back into position after ad-
justment. Select the closest position, if necessary.
To swivel the armrest backwards, engage the release le-
ver at the front of the armrest and hold it down it while
simultaneously pulling the armrest up until the armrest is
free. Now it can be swiveled backwards (photo 15+16).

If you would like to completely remove the armrests, re-
lease them in the front as described above and lift them
slightly so that they are free.
Now release the entire armrest by pulling and pressing
the rear release button (photo 17). This can now be remo-
ved by lifting off (photo 18).

Adjusting and using the parking brake
Upon delivery, the parking brake is correctly adjusted
according to the confi guration status. If you have made
changes to the wheel position, the brake adjustment
may need to be changed.
To do this, remove both screws on the underside of the
respective brake (photo 19) and push the complete unit
onto the guide such that there is a distance of 10 mm
between the brake bolt and the tire (photo 20). Retigh-
ten both screws and the parking brake is now optimally
adjusted.
Ensure that all screws are reinserted and tightened!
To use the parking brake, press the brake lever fi rmly
from the front until it noticeably clicks into place – the
parking brake is now engaged (photo 21).
To release, pull the brake lever towards you and the par-
king brake is unlocked (photo 22).
