Removing/Refitting
Disconnect both the connecting lead plugs
(Fig. 56), pull up the straps on either side
of the rear battery and lift it out. Pull the
front battery to the rear of the tray and
repeat the process.
WARNING
To refit reverse the process,
ensuring that the straps are folded
into the battery tray. You must ensure
that the tray is securely locked into
place and cannot slide back prior to
use. Failure to lock the battery box
correctly could cause your
wheelchair to be unstable.
Safety cut-outs
In the event of a short circuit, there are
safety systems built into your wheelchair
to safeguard your electrical circuits. Fusible
links are connected on to the battery
terminal posts (Fig. 57), should your chair
suffer a short circuit these links will break
the circuit. To replace them contact your
local Sunrise Medical service dealer, who
will also diagnose the fault.
