14. Once fitted correctly to the wheelchair the Powerpack will make life a lot easier and take all the effort out of pushing a wheelchair. Not only will it make pushing uphill easier, but along the flat as well. Use it all of the time to power the chair or just when the going gets tough. - Page 4 Avoid pointing at anyone. Take care when fitting. NB On some heavy duty and some specialist wheelchairs it may be found that the crossbar is a little too long. Please consult your dealer or TGA.
- Page 5 Ensure the wheelchair is fully open (see wheelchair manufacturer’s handbook). Adjust the position of the clamps so that they are directly opposite each other and the crossbar is at right angles to the wheelchair frame. Now lightly tighten the clamp retaining bolts with the allen key provided. Compress the crossbar and remove from the wheelchair.

If you are in any doubt, please contact TGA.

TGA cannot be responsible for their final decision. - Page 10 The battery should not be run completely flat or you may find that you are unable to recharge it. (Contact your local dealer or TGA.)
