DO NOT switch on and operate the powerchair control

system whilst the Emergency freewheel is disengaged.

Always re-engage the drive mechanism on the rear wheels

when the chair is not being pushed.

To Disengage the Emergency freewheel pull out and push

over the operating cam lever –

see Fig A.

To Engage the Emergency

freewheel pull out and push

over the operating cam lever.

The drive and brakes will NOT

become operable until the

internal parts are re-aligned.

To re-align the part push the powerchair forwards or

backward in a straight line until the parts automatically

re-engage and the brakes comes on. The LH and RH side

may not re-engage at the same time so make sure that

both are re-engaged before turning the powerchair on.

5.5 Drive wheel suspension Salsa

The SALSA M/R has an

effective and adjustable drive

wheel suspension system as

a standard feature. To match

your requirements on drive

comfort, the tension of the

springs at the damper can be

adjusted.

Turning the aluminium ring

away from the spring will

soften your ride, adjusting the

aluminium ring in a position

towards the spring will harden

it. This option is to be used to

match the different user weights

to the suspension system. (Fig.

26/27). We recommend the

suspension adjustments are

done equally on the left and

right side of the chair.

5.6 Control joystick unit position

Make sure that the control system is mounted securely and

that the joystick position is correct. The hand or limb you use

to operate the joystick should be supported for example by the

arm pad.

Do not use the joystick as the sole support for your hand or limb

- wheelchair movements and bumps could upset your control.

The remote is mounted on a sliding mechanism which enables

the control to be moved forwards and backwards. When the

most comfortable position has been selected, secure the slider

by tightening the locking screw. Ensure the locking screw is fully

tightened prior to use and especially when transporting your

wheelchair.
