GILL 2 Initial Installation
—Invacare ACTION Wheelchair Range
The Gill 2 Seating System may be supplied as a complete package, already
interfaced with its Invacare Action wheelchair, or as an individual Seat Unit, for
installation by a Wheelchair Service to their own stock Action wheelchair.
NOTE: The instructions detailed on these two pages, cover installation
where the Seat Unit has been supplied as an individual Unit and may vary
according to which Action model the Seat Unit is to be interfaced with.
Where the Gill 2 is supplied as an individual Seat Unit, for installation via a
Wheelchair Service, onto their own stock surrogate Action wheelchair, the Seat
Unit will be fitted with all the necessary interfacing Brackets and Straps to suit a
specific size of wheelchair. However, it will be necessary to adjust various
components to suit individual requirements and to finally ensure that all
components are correctly secured.
1. Initially it will be necessary to remove the
Backrest and Seat canvasses from the
surrogate wheelchair. This is done by
disconnecting and removing the Backrest
Tubes from the wheelchair and sliding the
Canvas downwards off the Tubes. Refit and
secure both Backrest Tubes.
2. The Seat Canvas can be removed by
carefully prizing out the black blanking plugs
from each end of the Seat Rails and save
for re-use. Remove the locking grub screws
(4) located on the underside of the Seat
Rails at each end and discard.
It should now be possible to slide the Seat
Canvas forwards and clear of the Seat Rails
and re-install the Seat Rail blanking plugs.
3. Loosely install two Seat Locating Clamps
(supplied), onto the each Seat Rail, Fig.1.
Initially the rear clamps placed towards the
Wheelchair cross braces and the front
clamps placed towards the front of the Seat
Rails.
4. With the wheelchair partially folded as Fig.1,
lower the Gill 2 onto the Seat Rails, Fig.2,
ensuring that all four Seat Hook Brackets
are located over the outside of the Seat
Rails.
5. Open the wheelchair fully outwards by
pushing downwards on the Seat Unit until
the Hook Brackets fully engage over the
curvature of the Seat Rails and the Rails
are located into their Saddles. [Cont]
