Parking Brake Function; Locking Function For The Front Wheels; Adjusting The Seat Tilt Angle; Tip-Assit - Thomashilfen tRide Bedienungsanleitung

Fitting the seat unit
The lever on the headrest frame serves on the one hand to separate the seat unit from the subframe and on the other to
adjust the seat tilt angle. Hold down the lever on the headrest frame of the seat unit (fig. 3).
Insert the seat unit into the mounting adapter on the chassis and ensure that the pins on the side of the seat unit engage
in the recesses designed for this purpose. Bring the seat into the upright position until you hear it securely click into place.
Then check that the seat is properly locked in-place by pulling forwards on it (fig. 4).
Removing the seat unit
The seat can be removed from the subframe without the use of tools. Hold down the lever on the headrest and tilt the
seat unit backwards. The seat unit can then be removed by lifting it diagonally backwards and upwards out of the
mounting adapter on the chassis. It is recommended that you first lock the foot brake in the on position.
Fitting the footrest
The footrest must be secured at the toggle joints. To do this, place the ratchet joints one above the other and secure with
the screws (lever the inside), the washers (lever the outside) and the wing nuts (lever the outside) (fig. 5).
Lateral backrest upholstery
Place the lateral backrest upholstery over the lateral tube and use Velcro to fasten the upholstery to the curved lateral
parts of the back section (fig. 6). Completely close the Velcro – including over the knurled screw. Also use Velcro to
secure it to the back section (fig. 7).
Locators for weather canopy
The tRide rehabilitation stroller is fitted with locators to fit a weather canopy as standard (fig. 8)
Seat upholstery
Use Velcro to secure the seat upholstery to the seat. The two lower Velcro straps should be secured around the footrest
tubes (fig. 9).
Footrest tube padding
Use Velcro to secure the footrest tube padding around both the left and right tubes beneath the toggle joints.
Mounting the belts
Pass the two upper belts depending on the size of the child to either both inner or both outer loops of the back upholstery
and attach them to the rear of the backrest with the cam buckles. (Fig. 10)
The two bottom belt ends can be attached with the cam buckles to either the back plate or to the side of the plastic
element. (Fig. 11-13) Guide the belts left and right next to the back upholstery to the corresponding cam
buckle and fix them.
Tip: The belt length can also be adjusted from the front. Pull the D-ring to shorten the belt.
Basket
Fasten the basket (with its opening to the rear) to the four crescent rings on the frame using the spring clips (fig. 14). The
basket may remain attached when folding the tRide. (Maximum loading of the basket: 5 kg).

Parking brake function

Please remove the cable tie that locks the foot brake.
Lock: Place your foot on the brake bar and press downwards.
Release: Place your foot underneath the brake bar and slide it upwards.
CAUTION: The brake release force is higher than usual in order to provide improved braking performance.

Locking function for the front wheels

Lock: Straighten the front wheels and lock them in-place using the locking pin (audibly clicks into place).
Unlock: Pull out the locking pin and fix it using a half-turn (fig. 15)

Adjusting the seat tilt angle

CAUTION: When adjusting the seat tilt angle always hold the back of the rehabilitation stroller to prevent the child
from being jolted when changing position. We recommend that you make this adjustment with the
child not sitting in the seat unit. If the adjustment is made when the child is sitting in the seat the child
must always be held or supported by a second person.
The seat tilt angle is adjusted using the lever on the headrest frame. Pulling and holding the release lever releases the
seat tilt mechanism which can then be set to a range of positions. These positions are evident from the hole pattern on
the seat mount. Once you have positioned the seat as desired, release the lever and the seat tilt angle will then
automatically lock into place. Check once again that the seat has locked into place properly by pressing on the seat's
backrest. The seat tilt mechanism must be locked into the corresponding locking hole on both sides of the
tRide (fig. 16)
CAUTION: During day-to-day use always ensure that the release lever remains unobstructed and that it is not
accidentally released or locked (by pressing against it or through it coming into contact with
other objects). There is otherwise an increased risk of tipping over/injury to the child.
Active seating position: The seat tilt adjustment of the tRide can be set to an active seating position of -10°. A non-
locking spring-loaded pin prevents this position from being accidentally selected. To select the active seating position,
pull out the spring-loaded pin on the seat mounting while adjusting the seat tilt angle (fig. 33)
Once the user leaves the active seating position the spring-loaded pin will once again block the seat tilt mechanism
when the 0° position is exceeded.
Tip-assist
(accessory)
Place your foot on the tip-assist then – with both hands on the rehabilitation stroller – tip as required (fig. 17).
Range of adjustments
Seat width
Loosen the four star grips (fig. 18) beneath the seat and slide out the side panels as necessary (fig. 19). If the seat depth
is set to its minimum, the maximum setting for the seat width is governed by the available space between the lateral
backrest upholstery pads. The seat upholstery does not need to be removed to adjust the seat width. Once you have
made the adjustment, re-tighten the star grips.
Seat depth
Loosen all four star grips (that are also used to adjust the seat width) beneath the seat and pull out the seat section
towards you (fig. 20). The seat upholstery does not need to be removed to adjust the seat depth. Once you have made
the adjustment re-tighten the star grips.
Tip: For easy adjustment of the seat depth grip the front edge of the seat with one hand and
press against the bottom part of the backrest (center) with the other.
Arm support
The arm supports are adjustable both in height and depth. To adjust the arm supports loosen both wing nuts, set the
desired height and depth and retighten the nuts (fig. 21).
Back height
Slightly release the lateral backrest upholstery from the seat. Loosen the two knurled screws at the top of the lateral
tubes (fig. 22). Now the back section can be infinitely adjusted in height until the point where it locks into place (the
spring-loaded pin snaps audibly into place). Use Velcro to re-attach the lateral backrest upholstery.
To reduce the back height, press the spring-loaded pin beneath the knurled screw on the right side and slide the back
section downwards until it reaches the desired height (fig. 23).
