User manual – A chassis Advantage

Basic equipment of the chassis

Sturdy, lightweight aluminum chassis, foldable; adjustment of the seat angle as well as seat assembly and disassembly
using a central lever; suspension integrated in the rear frame; height-adjustable handle with biocompatible handle; foot-
operated parking brake; puncture-proof EVA tires; swiveling front wheels with steering stop; removable basket; folding
can be locked.
The "Crash" model is also equipped with special connection points so that it can be used as a seat in a motor vehicle.

Setup and assembly

The settings / adjustments must always be made by trained / instructed professionals (such as medical product con-
sultants of specialist medical dealers). Using the release lever, the seat can be removed from the A chassis Advantage
without tools. It is important that the release lever remains actuated while inserting and removing the seat unit. No tools
are required when using the seat unit and the chassis for the first time, except for the Allen wrench that is supplied with
the seat unit.
The accessories are attached / removed using commercially available tools. Separate installation and operating instruc-
tions are included with the accessories. If these are missing, you can download the instructions from the download
section of our website www.thomashilfen.com at any time.
Inserting the seat unit
Activate the release lever on the backrest and insert the seat unit into the chassis from above (Fig. 1). Make sure that the
buttons on the sides of the seat unit between the folding joint and the connecting strap of the rear frame and the sliding
support are properly threaded through (Fig. 2). Now guide the buttons on the sides of the seat unit into the receiving
slots on the sides of the chassis (Fig. 3) and let the seat unit slide into position (Fig. 4). When you release the trigger, the
seat unit engages into the closest position of the hole matrix.
CAUTION: Always ensure that the locking pins on both sides of the seat unit engage firmly into a hole in the hole matrix.
Removing the seat unit
To remove the seat unit, actuate the release lever and pull the seat unit upwards out of the frame (Fig. 1). Make sure that
the buttons on the sides of the seat unit between the folding joint and the connecting strap of the rear frame and the
sliding support are properly threaded through (Fig. 2).

Folding

Folding open
Unlock the lock for folding. To do this, pull out the red locking pin on the right side of the chassis and rotate it by 90°
(Fig. 5). Take the rehab stroller by the push handle and pull it upwards while placing your foot on the rear axle (pull
until the push handle engages with a click). Then place the backrest in the upright position (release the clamping lever at
the back of the seat unit; Fig. 6). The footrest must be fastened to the knee joints. To do this, align the ratchet joints and
fasten them to the screws (from the inside), the saddles (from the outside) and the eccentric levers (from the outside;
Fig. 7).
Folding closed
Bring the reclining seat into the horizontal position and unlock the locking lever on both sides of the chassis (pull
upwards) while pressing the push bar down (Fig. 8). Then bring the backrest into the lying position, remove the knee
angle, flip up the footplate, and swivel the footrest as far forward as possible under the seat unit (Fig. 9). To secure the
rehab stroller in the folded state, rotate the red locking pin on the right side of the chassis by 90° (Fig. 5). Lift the push
handle slightly until the locking pin of the lock for folding engages.
CAUTION: Hold onto the frame; do not drop it.
Note regarding folding: When folding the seat closed, always ensure that the seat position is horizontal.
