To retrofit a mobility device with a Dahl Docking
system, it is imperative, that the mobility device
is equipped with the correct adapter plate. This
adapter plate must be threaded to fix the lock
plate of the Dahl Docking system underneath the
mobility device. The maximum kerb weight of the
mobility device must not exceed 200 kg.
• 6 mm Allen key
• Low-strength thread locking adhesive (Loctite
222 or similar)
1. Remove batteries. See Removing Batteries.
2.
Place screws A, lock plate B and 8 mm spacer C
on adapter plate D.
8 mm spacer is mandatory. Additional spacers
can be mounted to lock plate.

3.
Do not use any other screws than those
supplied from Dahl Engineering. Standard
countersunk M8 screws are not strong
enough in the event of a collision.
Tighten screws (20 - 25 Nm).
4. Mark where to cut screws.
5. Remove screws, lock plate and spacer.
6. Cut screw.
It is very important to check correct length
of screws. If screws are too short to reach
through threads, screws do not have strength
to carry required load. If screws are too
long, batteries or other components can be
damaged. If screws are cut too short, replace
them with original Dahl screws only.
7. Apply thread locking adhesive on screws.
8. Tighten lock plate and spacer with screws (20 - 25
Nm).
9. Connect mobility device with Dahl Docking station.
Make sure lock plate is securely locked and all release
methods work as intended. For more information
about using the Dahl Docking system, see user manual.
