Loading A Wheelchair Onto A Liftkar Pt-Plus And Pt-Adapt - Liftkar PT-S 130 Instruction Manual

5.2.7 Loading a wheelchair onto a Liftkar PT-Plus and PT-Adapt

On both these models the stairclimber unit is secured to the wheelchair using an
adapter mounting. (With the PT-Plus the adapter mounting is already fitted to the
wheelchair supplied with the Liftkar PT and you just need to attach and detach the
stairclimber as required).
With the Adapt model the customer needs to get a workshop to fit a special adapter
mounting to the wheelchair.
These mountings are fitted to each side of the climber unit for anchoring axles with
adjusting rings (PT-Adapt, photo 1) or with fixed axles (PT-Plus, photo 2)
How to attach the stairclimber to the
wheelchair:
1. Lock the wheelchair wheels by
applying the parking brake
2. Move the Liftkar PT under the
wheelchair from behind as close to
its centreline as possible and slide
the lower rods
mountings (photo 3, arrow A on
photo 4).
Note 1: the lifting frame with support wheels should be centred between the wheelchair
wheels so that the support wheels are not touching the floor (the lifting frame is in the
correct position when it is stopped using the single-step mode control, see also 4.1.3)
