Installation; Maintenance; Periodical Maintenance - Klaxon TWIST Gebrauchsanleitung

16. INSTALLATION

The TWIST device is provided by a KLAXON-authorised technician only after the Linking System has been
pre-installed on the wheelchair.
The TWIST device and the Linking Systems can only be installed on compatible manual
wheelchairs. KLAXON provides its distributors with an Installation Manual that contains the
linking criteria. KLAXON products and Linking Systems may only be installed by authorised
KLAXON technicians who can decide on their own responsibility whether the specific manual
wheelchair can be used properly with the TWIST device and the chosen Linking System
(based on both the characteristics of the manual wheelchair and the overall conditions).

17. MAINTENANCE

The TWIST device, its components, the Linking Systems and accessories must be serviced regularly, only in this
way can the safety, reliability and effectiveness of the device be guaranteed.
KLAXON is not liable for any damage caused by a lack of or for an insufficient maintenance.
In such cases the validity of the warranty will be voided. The use of the device that has
not undergone the maintenance procedures is considered as improper and thus effectively
voids the warranty. The user is fully and solely responsible for any injury or damage resulting
from a malfunction of the device due to not performing the mandatory maintenance.
The TWIST device may only be repaired by authorised KLAXON technicians.
Unscheduled maintenance can be carried out only by authorised KLAXON technicians.
It is forbidden to remove any components from the TWIST device. Only authorised KLAXON
technicians may remove components from the TWIST device.
The only component that can be removed by the user is the battery.
It is mandatory to verify the correct installation after one month. In order to do so please
contact an authorised KLAXON technician. This operation will check the system settlement.
NOTE Please contact a Klaxon Dealer to know whether a spare part is available or not.

17.1 PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE

The following periodical maintenance activities are mandatory:
Check the tyre inflation pressure at least once a month; a deflated tyre compromises the
smoothness of the ride, the safety and the electric consumption. The TWIST tyre must be
inflated between 2 bar (30 psi) and 2.5 bar (36 psi).
Check the wear condition of the tyres at least once a month. Contact an authorised KLAXON
technician to replace the inner tube or tyre.
Check, at least once every two months, the tightening of all screws and fasteners of the
device and of the Linking Systems.
Check the tightening of the wheel axle bolts at least once a year with a dynamometric torque
wrench set to 25 Nm. Contact an authorised KLAXON technician.
