Characteristics; Assembly; Footrest; Kerb Climber - Quickie Rumba Notice D'utilisation

- If you discover any chair malfunction, take it to be repaired or reset. Your dealer can help you to find the
fault and correct it.
- Make sure batteries are charged.
- Be aware that there is a point during every transfer when the wheelchair seat is not below you.
- Use extra care when you drive your chair in reverse. If one of the wheels hits an obstacle, you could lose
control of the chair or fall out.
- Never use your chair on a slope unless you are sure you can do so without losing traction.
- Lift the chair only by non-detachable parts of the main frame.
- Never short-circuit electrical connections as you could cause an explosion.

C. ASSEMBLY
1. Footrest (Fig. 2): The footrests can be swung away by moving the release lever in the swing-away
direction. To remove the footrest, activate the release lever, rotate the footrest approx. 90° outwards and
then pull it out upwards. To refit the footrest follow the reverse procedure and the lock engages automatically
when swung inwards.
2. Armrest (Fig. 3): Slide the armrest tube into the receiver of the wheelchair and turn the lever to the right
to secure it. If you require a different individually fixed armrest height, you can set this using the adjusting
screw on the connecting tube.
3. Anti-tip wheels: These are mounted when the wheelchair leaves the factory. The anti-tip wheel tube is
screwed firmly to the motor retaining plate of the wheelchair frame. The anti-tip wheels can be removed by
slackening and unscrewing the two M8 Allen screws. Reverse the procedure to assemble. Note: If anti-tips
wheels are fitted, the wheelchair may interfere with kerbs when mounting or dismounting.
4. Kerb climber (Fig. 4):
❑ The left and right mounting plates for the Kerb Climber Tube (1) are fixed onto the inside of the frame
using the sleeves, nuts and bolts provided.
❑ Next fit the Kerb Climber Tube, starting on the left hand side and fitting the end of the tube into the round
socket on the left-hand mounting plate.
❑ Then fit the right-hand end into the square socket on the right mounting plate and pass the quick release
axle through it (2).

5. Batteries

1. Lean the side supports of the battery housings on the rails.
2. Push the battery cases forwards on the rails until they lock in place. Put the battery case with the
connectors for the electronics in first. Position it first so that the connecting lead for the electronics is on
your right. This will make it much easier to connect the batteries.
3. Now connect the two connecting plugs on the left side of the battery cases together.
