Removing/installing batteries

WARNING
Each battery weighs 16kg. Use proper lifting techniques (lift with your legs) to avoid injury.
Failure to use the correct battery size and/or voltage may cause damage to your wheelchair
and give you unsatisfactory performance.
Always use a battery lifting strap when lifting a battery. It also helps to prolong the life of the
