Uncoupling the handbike from the wheelchair
9.2 Coupling the Pico frame
As soon as the U-frame and the coupling plate
have been brought into the optimal position, you
can couple the traction device to the wheelchair.
Check the position of the rotary switch D1. This
must point downwards before the docking process
so that the pin controlled by it protrudes. (
).
Position the towing device centrally in front of the
coupling plate and lift the lateral pins of the towing
device into the slots provided in the coupling plate.

in and must then automatically pop out again as
soon as the towing device is in the correct position.
Now push the handlebar of the towing device away
from you and thereby carefully lift the front wheels
of the wheelchair until the lower pins of the towing
device engage in the coupling plate. Make sure that
the pins are engaged on both sides. The towing
device is now ready to drive.

the function of the automatic detent.
Once you have parked the handcycle or power
assist, you can open the clamps and release
the handcycle from the wheelchair. Only open
the clamps as far as necessary, since if they are
opened too far, the clamping nuts could fall out
(after approx. 20 turns).
10.2 Uncoupling the Pico frame
To uncouple the towing device from the wheelchair,
push lever H2 all the way forward. This unlocks
the pins at the bottom of the coupling plate and
the traction unit detaches from the coupling
plate, thereby lowering the raised wheels of the
wheelchair to the ground.
Now turn the rotary switch D1 upwards so that the
pin controlled by it is lowered. The traction device
is now completely detached from the U-frame. Lift
the traction device slightly out of the coupling plate
and place it on the stand.
NOTE
Turn the rotary switch back down immediately
after uncoupling so that you do not forget to do
so the next time you couple it.
