4.5 FIT WHEELCHAIR TO LIFTKAR PT-PLUS AND PT-ADAPT
On both these models the stairclimber unit is secured to the wheelchair using an adapter mounting. (With the
PT-Plus the adapter mounting is already fitted to the wheelchair supplied with the LIFTKAR PT and you just need
to attach and detach the stairclimber as required). With the Adapt model the customer needs to get a workshop
to fit a special adapter mounting to the wheelchair. These mountings are fitted to each side of the climber unit
for anchoring axles with adjusting rings (PT-Adapt,
photo 1
) or with fixed axles (PT-Plus,
photo 2
)
How to attach the stairclimber to the wheelchair:
Lock the wheelchair wheels by applying the parking brake
1.
Move the LIFTKAR PT under the wheelchair from behind as close to its
2.
centreline as possible and slide the lower rods into the lower
mountings (

, arrow A on
photo 4
).
NOTE
The lifting frame with support wheels should be centred between the wheelchair wheels so that
the support wheels are not touching the floor (the lifting frame is in the correct position when it is
stopped using the single-step mode control, see also
3.1.3
)
NOTE
If the wheelchair had been folded for transport, make sure that it has been set up properly by
simply pressing down sharply on the seat. Otherwise, it is possible that the side frames will
not be far enough apart to allow the climber unit to fit between the lower mountings.
Set the lowest speed (see also
3.1.2
)
3.
Press UP on the UP/DOWN switch so the climber unit moves upwards until the upper rods engage with the
4.
yokes on the upper mounting on the wheelchair (
photo 4
).
Use the quick-release pins to secure the mountings on the left and right (
photo 5
).
