Coupling the handbike to the wheelchair
8.3 Adjusting the height of the
coupling plate
( Abb. 17 ) Loosen the screws S4L and S4R. Now
you can adjust the height of the coupling plate
by tilting the U-frame up or down. After you have
adjusted the height according to your wishes,
tighten all screws carefully according to the torque
list: „ Attachment - A Torque list “.

8.4 Adjusting the handlebar
height
Loosen the lever HS and adjust the height of the
handlebars according to your wishes. For transport,
it is a good idea to push the handlebars together
completely. ( Fig. 24 ).
9 Coupling the handbike to
the wheelchair
9.1 Coupling standard frame
Once you have carefully adjusted the handbike to
your wheelchair, you can easily and quickly connect
and disconnect it from your wheelchair at any time.
If locked, unlock the Automatic catch. To do this,
push.the.latch.flap.in.the.direction.of.the.clamps..
( Fig. 8 und Fig. 9 )..This.causes.the.latch.flap.to.
spring open and release the locking pin. Now you
can adjust the clamping device and thus relax
the automatic detents to maximum length. We
recommend that you close the detents again
immediately to avoid injury when operating the
clamping levers.
Open the clamping device on both sides just
enough so that they can be slid over the front
frame tubes of the wheelchair. Open the clamps
only as far as necessary, as opening them too far
could cause the clamping nuts to fall out (after
approx. 20 turns).
WARNING
Tighten the ball handle nut or the tetrastar nut
with a maximum torque of 6-8 Nm!
Grasp the handbike by the handlebar and attach
it to the front frame of the wheelchair using the
clamping device. Now tighten the clamps on both
sides.
For your own safety, we recommend locking the
brakes on the wheelchair and handbike for the
coupling process. This will prevent the handbike
or wheelchair from moving and you will have both
hands free to close the clamps..
To further simplify the coupling process, you
will receive positioning clamps together with the
handbike, which you can permanently mount on the
wheelchair. You can easily and safely position the
handbike’s clamping device on these and only have
to close the clamps.
NOTE
When closing the clamps, always make sure that
the clamps are aligned parallel to the tubes of
the front frame of the wheelchair. If this is not the
case, there is a risk of damage to the PVC caps.
Before coupling, make sure that the PVC caps
are undamaged. Damaged PVC caps can cause
damage to the wheelchair.
WARRANTY & LIABILITY NOTICE
The PVC caps are wearing parts, therefore no
warranty applies to them. We accept no liability
for damage caused by damaged PVC caps.
Now release the brakes of the handbike. Push the
handbike forward by the handlebar so that the front
wheels of the wheelchair lift off the ground. Push
the handbike forward until the automatic locks
engage on both sides. You should hear a distinct
click. Check whether both locking pins are visibly
engaged.
