5 Introduction
Before starting your journey, familiarise
yourself with these operating instructions
paying particular attention to the safety
information and hazard warnings contained
within them.
Allow your therapists and doctors to
advise you, your carers and assistants, on how
to use the product and what you are safe to do
with the product based on your current ability.
Clarify with them as well which wheelchair
techniques you can learn on the basis of your
ability. Under no circumstances should you do
anything with or in the product which you have
not learnt to and have not mastered.
You, your carers and assistants should
also seek advice from your therapists and
doctors as well as the rehabilitation specialist
dealer about the use and settings of your
product as well as all the safety accessories
available (e.g. anti-tipping supports and waistbelt). It is then vital that the advice from
doctors, therapists and the rehabilitation
specialist dealer should be followed.
Overestimating your own ability or
underestimating dangerous situations and
actions with the product can result in serious
consequences for you and other people.
If you are not sure how to handle the
product or if technical faults occur, please
contact your rehabilitation specialist dealer or
PRO ACTIV before using it.
Make sure that when combining your
product with equipment made by other
manufacturers (e.g. seat cushions) that the
serviceability of the individual components and
the unit made up of them is ensured. You can
get information on the suitability of a
combination from the manufacturer of the thirdparty components or from your rehabilitation
specialist retailer.

12 Getting to know the product
During the initial commissioning of the product,
drive at minimum speed and become
accustomed to the driving characteristics of the
product. Always adapt the speed and driving
manoeuvres to match your own abilities and
external circumstances. You will get a feel for
how to use the product safely after a short
time.
Let the coach of your wheelchair sports club
instruct you fully on the game and wheelchair
techniques used in your sport.
Practice bending, gripping, routes and getting
out, until you know the limits of your abilities.
Allow yourself to be assisted until you know
what can call falls or tips and how to avoid it.
Get to know the environment in which you wish
to use the product. Look out for obstacles and
learn how to overcome or avoid them.
13 Safety instructions – prior to
driving/use
When getting into the wheelchair, do not
tread on the footrests as this may tip the chair
over.
When getting into the product, a good
technique when supporting yourself and the
appropriate body posture is required which you
must learn together with your therapist. To
avoid the risk of falling, please observe the
following steps:
1. Move the product as close as possible to
the seat from which you want to climb in to
the product. The product wheels must be
parallel to the seat. If possible, use a
transfer aid.
2. Turn the steering wheel of the product
against the direction of travel so that this is
as far forward as possible.
3. Now follow the steps prescribed by you r
therapist for the transfer.
Before every trip, check the condition of
the wheels (e.g. visual inspection of the spokes
and rims, check the tyres for damage, foreign
bodies and crack formation). If you have any
doubts about the serviceability of the product,
stop using it.
Check tyre pressures at regular intervals.
Ensure that you comply with the
manufacturer's specifications which can be
found on the tyres. Tyre pressure which is too
low has a negative effect on the handling of
your product.
Check the stable condition of the seat and
back upholstery at regular intervals and in case
of doubt, have your rehabilitation specialist
dealer assess its condition.
Always ensure that your feet cannot slip
off the footrest when using the product, if
necessary by using a special securing device.
Before using the product, ensure that the
anti-tipping supports are in good working order.
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
8
The lower edge of the anti-tipping support
wheels may not be any more than 8 mm from
the ground. If a larger gap is required or
necessary, then you need to work with your
therapists and doctors and your trainer to
practice and learn to handle the increased risk
of tipping.
Every time before you use the product,
make sure that the anti-tipping supports (with
length adjustable centre anti-tipping supports)
are firmly attached and the quick-release axles
on the caster forks (optional) and drive wheels
are also securely locked in place.
Depending on the optional extras, the
product may have folding/closing mechanisms
which pose a risk of crushing injuries (e.g.
trapping your fingers). For this reason, please
allow your rehabilitation specialist dealer to
explain how to work these mechanisms and
then have a go yourself under instruction.
If required, you can have a suitable chest
or waist belt fitted to your product. Please
make sure that the belt is set up so that it does
not have any negative impact on breathing,
does not strangle you should you fall or tip out
of the product and which you can easily
remove yourself.
When travelling, always carry a repair kit
and tyre pump for repairs in event of
punctured/flat tyre. A alternative to this is a
pump spray that fills your tyre with a foam that
hardens in the tyre.
Secure the product from unauthorised
use, particularly by children.
14 Safety instructions – while
driving/using
Please note that some parts of your
product can become extremely hot in hot
ambient temperatures. This means that above
50°C, the product may be damaged and above
40°C there is already the risk of burns for the
user, which should not be underestimated,
particularly for people with impaired sensitivity.
For this reason, the product should not be
exposed to such extreme temperatures.
PRO ACTIV cannot accept any liability or
provide any warranty for personal injury and
material damage caused by such stresses.
There are also certain risks that exist at
extremely low temperatures, which must be
minimised by wearing appropriately insulating
clothes for example.
Do not drive with this product on loose or
uneven surfaces.
If there is a loose or uneven surface at the
sports ground, please observe the following:
Avoid, where possible by driving around,
driving on loose surfaces (e.g. on loose gravel,
in sand, mud, snow, ice or through deep
puddles of water). When travelling on poorly
maintained paths (e.g. large gravel, potholes)
there is an increased risk of puncturing your
tyres as well as tipping. When travelling on
poorly maintained paths, drive carefully to try
to avoid the caster wheels from becoming
locked. Where there is large unevenness,
there is an increased risk of grounding due to
the smaller caster wheels and anti-tipping
supports with low ground clearance for sport
use (maximum traversable/avoidable obstacle
height is normally 1 cm).
If there are downward slopes found on the
sports ground which you need to drive over,
please observe the following: You may only
drive on slopes where the product can be
safely controlled with the handrims. Never
drive the product on slopes of more than 10 %.
Do not ride across slopes due to the risk of
tipping.
If there are uphill slopes found on the
sports ground which you need to drive over,
please observe the following: Do not ride
across uphill slopes due to the risk of tipping.
Driving on a slope shifts the centre of gravity of
the product. If possible, lean your upper body
slightly forwards to work against the shift in the
centre of gravity. Do not stop on a steep slope,
otherwise there is a risk of losing control of the
product. If possible, do not turn on a slope or
change your direction.
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
9
When driving around a bend, reduce your
speed to a minimum.
Do not attach objects (carrier bags, etc.)
to the product.
If you encounter new driving situations
which are unknown to you, approach them with
great care. If you consider that the risk is too
high, you must immediately abort the driving
manoeuvre and, if required, call for help to
assist you in extracting yourself from this
situation.
The product can affect other devices, for
example theft protection barriers in department
stores.
The product is only designed to be used
to transport persons with limited mobility and
must not be used for any other purpose, e.g. to
transport goods.
When using for sports, the anti-tipping
supports should always be used as there is an
increased risk of tipping over.
The product may only be propelled using
the handrims. If you drive propelling the chair
with the tyres (thumbs or fingers on the tread
of the tyre), there is the risk of crushing or
otherwise injuring fingers and thumbs.
Do not reach into the area of the spokes or
other tight spaces in the vicinity of the wheels.
There is an increased risk of being injured
here, particularly while in motion. If you have
limited coordination of your limbs, then you
should protect the spokes with a spoke shield
for example to minimise the risks.
Smoking when riding is forbidden as the
seat and back system may be damaged from
ash which falls down.
If you stretch out or lean in a direction, the
centre of gravity of the product shifts which can
cause falls or tipping over. Never stretch out or
lean out so far that your weight is completely
shifted sideways, you lift yourself out of the
seat, or slide out of the seat forwards. Your
buttocks should always be in contact with the
backrest. Never stretch out both hands at the
same time, you will not be able to arrest
yourself and prevent a fall should the product
tip up. Never stretch or lean over the edge of
the backrest.
If you want to pick something up from the
ground, move the product as close as possible
to the object. Do not try to lift the object off the
ground by stretching both hands forwards
between the knees. The risk of tipping is lower
if you bend down sideways. For this purpose, it
makes sense to drive past the object you wish
to reach with the product and then to move
back to the side of the object using a
rearwards movement. The rearwards
movement means that the caster wheels are
aligned forwards and the product is more
stable. The object is now found close to the
side of the product and can be grasped. While
grasping the object with one hand, hold the
other side of the product firmly with your other
hand (the side opposite the object).
15 Safety instructions regarding
obstacles
Driving on steps with the product is
forbidden.
You may not ride on escalators using the
product.
The product is a sports wheelchair and
may not/cannot be used to cross obstacles
such as kerbs or steps, for example. In t his
case, it is necessary to change to an everyday
wheelchair.
The maximum obstacle height which can
be negotiated is 1 cm.
If the product user needs to be
transported over an obstacle and there are
suitable facilities such as a ramp or a lift
available, then these should be used. If such
facilities are not available, then the obstacle is
to be overcome by being carried by two
helpers. When carrying the product, it may not
be lifted by the side sections, the drive wheels
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
10
or the footrests. We recommend holding the
product on the frame and back cross bar.
16 Safety instructions regarding
dangerous locations and
dangerous situations
The operator of the product determines
his/herself the area to be driven and the
wheelchair sport techniques to be used taking
the operating instructions, their driving
knowledge and physical abilities into
consideration.
When driving in a circle or turning on hills
or downward slopes, there may be an
increased tendency to tip over to the side due
to the changes in the centre of gravity. Avoid
such driving manoeuvres. If these cannot be
avoided, perform these driving manoeuvres
with increased caution and only at a very slow
speed. If necessary, the driving manoeuvre
must not be performed or only with the help of
an assistant.
Use particular caution when approaching
stairs, edges, drops or other hazard areas.
When driving on ramps and lifting
equipment on vehicles, extreme caution is
needed. Ensure in advance that the ramp is
wide enough so that you do not risk the
product wheels slipping off the ramp. During
the lifting or lowering process of a ramp or a
lift, the product must be held in position using
the handrims. Always keep the product in the
middle of the ramp.
The grip of the tyres on the ground is
reduced in the wet. There is an increased risk
of slipping. Adjust your driving, braking and
steering behaviour accordingly.
17 Safety instructions – after
driving/use
When getting out of the wheelchair, do not
tread on the footrest due to the risk of tipping
over.
Your weight can shift if you dress, undress
or change clothing while you are sitting in the
product. To reduce the risk of falling or tipping,
turn the steering wheel so that it lies against
the direction of travel of the product (i.e. as far
forward as possible).
When getting out of the product, a good
technique when supporting yourself and the
appropriate body posture is required which you
must learn together with your therapist. To
avoid the risk of falling, please observe the
following steps:
1. Move the product as close as possible to
the seat to which you want to climb onto
from the product. The product wheels must
be parallel to the seat. If possible, use a
transfer aid.
2. Turn the steering wheel of the product
against the direction of travel so that this is
as far forward as possible.
3. Now follow the steps prescribed by you r
therapist for the transfer.
18 Back system
Avoid falling into the seating and back
padding/back shell as it significantly increases
the risk of an adjustment, falling down or
defects.
18.1 Backrest angle
18.1.1 Adjustment possibilities with
backrests fixed by being bolted
onto side panels/parts
With backrests screwed permanently onto side
panels/parts, there are no possibilities for
flexible backrest adjustment without tools
available.
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
11
Figure 1: Backrest screwed permanently onto side
parts, equipped with side parts with welded tube
bracket
Figure 2: Backrest screwed permanently onto side
panel, equipped with aluminium side panel
Depending on the type of the frame and
equipment, a permanent adjustment of the
backrest of 5° forwards or backwards is
possible using tools however. It is not possible
to make this adjustment with the Overlite frame
version with complete seat and backrest made
from one bended tube. This adjustment is
possible in the frame versions of the product
with a separate back unit which are also fitted
with an "Aluminium side panel". There are
three holes in the rear of the side panel on the
top and bottom to position the backrest tube.
To adjust the backrest 5° forwards or
backwards, loosen both M5 fastening bolts
(AF 3 mm) with washers on each side and
position the fastening bolts with washers in the
desired holes of the side panels (use the same
hole on the right and left). Then tighten up the
M5 fastening bolts (AF 3 mm) again to 4 Nm
and secure these with thread lock fluid.
Figure 3. Adjusting the backrest position using holes
in the side panel
18.1.2 Adjustment possibilities with an
adjustable backrest
If equipped with an adjustable and foldable
backrest, the backrest angle can be flexibly
adjusted without using tools and the backrest
can be completely folded away. The angle of
the backrest can be fixed in 7 positions.
Observe that the centre of gravity is
shifted further to the rear by the enlargement of
the angle between the backrest and the seat
system and thus, the tipping point of the
product is reached much sooner.
18.1.3 Instructions for sitting posture with
an adjustable backrest
For a good sitting posture, we recommend
positioning the backrest vertical to the ground,
where possible.
With low backrest with adaptable belt cover
due to a disability, under certain
circumstances, it may also be a benefit for a
good sitting stability to slightly tilt the backrest
to the front and to slacken the top belt of the
back padding so that the slack in the upper
area is greater (see chapter 18.2).
The adjustment possibility of the backrest
angle supports active sitting and ensures for
flexibility of the wheelchair user.
Three holes on the top and
the bottom to adjust the
backrest position
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
12
18.1.4 Adjusting the backrest angle or
folding down the backrest with an
adjustable backrest
To adjust the backrest angle, relieve this
(otherwise there is a risk of tipping) and then
loosen the locking pin that engage in the
locking holes of the side section on the left and
right. For this purpose, grasp under the seat
upholstery and in the middle, pull the cord to
the front that is linked to the locking pin.
For safety reasons, the adjustment range of
the backrest is limited by a stop pin when
supplied. The stop pin allows a maximum
inclination of 7° to the rear from a vertical
position.
Figure 4: Adjustable and foldable backrest
Figure 5: Locking pin and stop pin (viewed from the
outside of the product)
Figure 6: Locking pin connected to the cord (bottom
view)
Figure 7: Cord for operating the locking pin and thus
for adjusting the angle of the backrest
If you have released both locking pins by
pulling on the cord, you can adjust the backrest
as desired and re-engage it by letting go of the
cord. In doing so, before applying load again,
make sure that both locking pins have

18.2 Adjustable back padding & their
adjustment options
The back system "Adjustable back padding"
comprises one belt system and one back
upholstery. The slack of the backrest can be
adapted to the individual requirements via the
belts with tensioning loops.
First remove the back upholstery that has been
covered over which has been attached using
hook-and-loop straps. The belt system located
underneath has been set in the factory that the
top and the bottom belts have a slack of
approx. 2 cm. The middle belts have been
pulled tight for a good lumbar support.
Figure 8: Belt system of the adaptable back padding
with three belts
To adjust the slack in the belt system, the
tensioning loops of the respective belt are held
on their strap and pressed (strongly) to the
right until the belt slackens.
Figure 9: Push the tensioning loop onto its strap on
the right
Figure 10: Tensioning loop open completely
Now the belt can be pulled tight for setting a
small slack or loosened for a large slack (Fig.
11 and 12). The belt does not have to be
threaded out of the tensioning loops for this.
Figure 11: Reduce the slack
Figure 12: Increase the slack
In order to put the tensioning loops back onto
the back system loosely again, pull the loop
section at the back to the left. You should dose
your pulling force with care in order not to
adjust the set slack again.

The belts must always be threaded
through the tensioning loops twice, otherwise
the belts will slacken when using the product,
and with heavy loads, the middle web of the
tensioning loops will sag strongly.

18.3 Ergonomic back shell & its setting
options
The back system "Ergonomic back shell"
comprises an aluminium shell, Velcro crossstraps and a back padding.
There is already a slack integrated in the back
shell due to the shape of the back shell.
Nothing can be adjusted here.
However, lumbar support can be achieved
using the Velcro cross-straps. For this
purpose, the back padding is removed over the
Velcro straps. Now the cross-straps can be
tensioned to the respective individual
requirements by undoing and reapplying the
Velcro strap system.
Leave the loops

Then mount the back upholstery using the
Velcro straps.
18.4 Ergo Back backrest bar
The back system "Ergo Back backrest bracket"
normally consists of a backrest bracket (with or
without lumbar curvature) and an adjustable
backrest support including customised
backrest upholstery. The adjustment
possibilities of the adjustable backrest
support are described in chapter 18.2.
Figure 26: Ergo Back backrest bracket with

The Overlite frame version has a special
version of the Ergo Back backrest bracket. In
this case, there is no adjustable backrest
support under the backrest upholstery, rather a
backrest support which is fixed to the frame
tubes using Velcro tapes. There are no
possible adjustments here.

19 Seat system
Avoid falling into the seating and back
padding/back shell as it significantly increases
the risk of an adjustment, falling down or
defects.
The seat system generally either comprises a
spring suspended Body Contour seat
upholstery or an open belt system.
With a seating system from Body Contour
seat upholstery, there is no adjustment
option. The Body Contour seat upholstery has
a springing effect and when seating.,
automatically forms a slack.
Figure 31: Body Contour seat upholstery
The open belt system can be subsequently
adjusted. Using the fleece hook-and-loop
straps, the slack in the seating surface can be
changed so that it suits your seat cushion
system. In doing so, the seat tension should
not have too much slack to avoid touching the
frame cross tubes.
Figure 32: Open belt system with fleece hook-andloop straps for adjusting the slack
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1

It is mandatory to use a seat cushion on
the seating system. At cold temperatures, the
seat cushion prevents lower abdomens from
undercooling and protects against dirt and
wetness. Moreover, the cushion ensures
uniform pressure distribution for your bottom
and absorbs impacts as well as vibrations.
20 Drive wheels
20.1 Removing and attaching the drive
wheels
Figure 33: Locking knob of the quick-release axle in
the middle of the wheel axle
To remove the drive wheels grip through the
spokes around the wheel hub with your fingers.
By pressing the locking knob in the middle of
the wheel axle with your thumb, the wheels
can then be removed.
When attaching the drive wheels, the locking
knobs must be pressed and the drive wheels
with quick-release axle must be inserted in the
drive wheel bearings. When doing this, special
attention should be paid to ensure that the
locking knob springs out again after attaching
the wheel, as otherwise the wheels are not
properly secured. You will know this if you can
see the index groove.
Figure 34: Quick release axle with index groove
Before using the product, check if the
wheels are secured and that the quick release
axles are locked.
20.2 Checking and adjusting the wheel
tracking of the drive wheel
Well adjusted wheel tracking significantly
improves the easy running characteristics of
the product. To check the tracking, proceed as
follows:
Position the product on a level surface and
secure the product against rolling away.
Measure the axle heights (from the ground to
the drive wheel axle) and write this dimension
onto both tyres at front and back.

Afterwards measure the distance between the
drive wheels front and back at the height of the
axles along the markers. Ideally, the distance
between the two drive wheels should be the
same size at the front and back. In general it
can be said that the distance between the drive
wheels at the front may not be larger than at
the back. Apart from that, the distance at the
back may not be more than 5 mm larger that at
the front. If this is not the case, the wheel
tracking needs to be corrected.
Figure 36: Distance between the markers on the
tyres (at axle height), back
To adjust the track proceed as follows:
1. Loosen the aluminium locking nuts on both
sides (AF 41 mm).
Figure 37: Drive wheel bushing and aluminium
locking nut (rear view)
2. Correctly adjust the track by turning the
drive wheel bushing (AF 22 mm). Here it
can be said that: If you turn the drive wheel
bushing in the direction of travel, the track
at the front will become more narrow. The
exact opposite occurs if you turn it against
the direction of travel, the track opens up.
3. Make sure that the distance at the front to
the frame on the right and left is the same.
Figure 38: Distance at the front to the frame
4. Measure the distance between the drive
wheels at the front and back again at the
axle height (along the markers) so that the
distance between the rive wheels is not
any larger at the front than at the back.
Apart from that, the distance at the back
may not be more than 5 mm larger that at
the front.
Figure 39: Distance between the markers on the
tyres (at axle height), back
5. If all the distances are correct, then use an
open-ended spanner (AF 22 mm) to hold
the running wheel bushing in position and
tighten the aluminium locking nut (AF
41 mm) with a tightening torque of 70 Nm.

20.3 Wheel camber
The wheel camber increases the lateral
stability of the product but also increases the
overall width of the product.
The wheel camber is provided according to the
order and can subsequently be only slightly
adjusted due to the fixed welded caster-wheel
bearing blocks. If you want to make a change
to the wheel camber, please contact your
rehabilitation specialist dealer or PRO ACTIV.
20.4 Air pressure
Check the tyre inflation pressure at regular
intervals as well as after extreme influence of
temperature (not on solid rubber tyres). The
maximum and if applicable, minimum tyre
pressure is printed on the side of the tyre.
This should be observed.
Too low tyre pressure increases the risk of
a puncture.
The tyre pressure increases with the
temperature. If the pressure is too high, the
tyre may burst. For this reason, product tyres
may not be exposed to unusually high
temperatures such as under glass in the
summer.
When inflating the tyre, make sure that the
prescribed air pressure is not exceeded.
To check or correct the air pressure,
proceed as follows:
1. Secure the product to prevent it rolling
away.
2. The drive wheel is normally fitted with a car
tyre valve. Unscrew the valve cap.
Figure 40: Valve with cap
Figure 41: Valve without cap
3. Place the valve attachment of the
compressed air device or the compressor
onto the valve (if necessary, an adapter
must be placed on the valve attachment)
and, if a clamp lever is fitted, secure the
connection by applying the lever.
4. Now check the air pressure . If the air
pressure does not match the
specifications, now correct the air
pressure.
5. Finally release the clamp lever (if present),
pull the valve attachment off the valve and
replace the valve cap.

20.5 Other
If tyres, inner tubes or handrims need to be
replaced, please contact your rehabilitation
specialist retailer.
Please note that changing one type of tyres to
another size is not possible as with welded
caster-wheel bearing blocks the frame design
including the alignment of the caster-wheel
bearing blocks is precisely aligned to the tyre
size ordered and the welded caster-wheel
bearing blocks cannot subsequently be
adjusted.
We recommend: The spoke guard
prevents hands and fingers entering and being
trapped in the wheels when riding. The risk of
injury is thus minimised. In addition, the spokes
are protected for use in sports, e.g. in the
event of collisions.
Figure 44: Spoke protection to minimise the risk of
trapping hands and fingers and to protect the

21 Caster wheels
21.1 Replacing the caster wheels
To remove a caster wheel, unscrew the M6
axle fixing screws (AF 4 mm) on one side.
Figure 45: M6 axle fixing screw on caster wheel axle
M6 axle fixing screws
Valve adapter
Clamp lever
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
22
Figure 46: Caster wheel with aluminium axle
Now you can see the aluminium axle with a
hexagon socket (AF 4 mm) in the middle of the
axle. This hexagon socket is used to fix the
axle in place, while the second M6 axle fixing
screw (AF 4 mm) is unscrewed. To do this,
insert an Allen key (AF 4 mm) into the hexagon
socket on the aluminium axle and hold it still.
At the same time, unscrew the remaining M6
axle fixing screw (AF 4 mm) on the other side.
Now the caster wheel can be removed from
the fork. One spacer each is mounted to the
right and left on the caster wheel that you are
able to remove in order for it to be reused later
when reinstalling the new caster wheel. In case
you want to install a different type of caster
wheel, use the enclosed spacers as these
generally differ from one type of caster wheel
to another.
Figure 47: Spacer on the caster wheel
To mount the caster wheel, proceed in the
reverse order as for removal. Please make
sure that the spacers on the right and left on
the caster wheel are re-installed in the caster
fork before assembly. The torque of the M6
axle fixing screws (AF 4 mm) is 7 Nm. It is
recommended only to use screws with polymer
dry locking coating. Screws without polymer
dry locking coating must be secured with screw
locking fluid.
21.2 Caster wheels flapping
Uncontrolled swivelling backwards and
forwards of the caster wheels around their
axes on the caster fork (while moving) is
known as "fluttering".
If the caster wheels start fluttering, then
immediately reduce the speed you are
travelling at to avoid the caster wheels
jamming sideways so as to avoid the risk of
falling over.
The speed limit where caster wheel fluttering
starts, is reduced by:
increasing size of the caster wheels
increase weight of the caster wheels
falling load on the caster wheels
decreasing caster length of caster wheels
As the caster-wheel bearing blocks are welded
in place and the frame design is individually
matched to the caster-wheel size, the only
possibility to have generally counteract
caster fluttering is the use of a lighter caster
wheel of the same diameter. The diameter of
the caster wheels and the caster length cannot
be changed.
21.3 Replacing the caster wheel forks
The caster wheel fork is removed using a
wrench which is included in the scope of
delivery. This wrench is inserted into the two
holes on the nut of the caster wheel bearing
block and turned anti-clockwise, e.g. using an
AF 24 mm fork wrench. The caster wheel fork
needs to be held still. When the nut has been
completely removed, the caster wheel fork can
be pulled out.

When mounting the caster wheel fork, insert
the caster wheel axle back into the caster
wheel bearing block, use the supplied wrench
to tighten up the nut of the caster wheel axle
again (hold the caster wheel axle firmly) and
secure it with thread lock.
The nut of the caster wheel axle may not be
tightened up more than 3 Nm to ensure it runs
smoothly. In case more sluggishness is
desired, this can be achieved using a higher
tightening torque.
22 Footrests
Measures need to be taken to ensure
there is sufficient ground clearance under the
footrest. Experience shows that this should not
be less than 1 cm. This must be observed for
the angle adjustment of the footplate and when
setting the lower leg length.
22.1 Angle adjustment of the footplate
The angle of the footplate can be set by
undoing the M6 fastening clamp screws (AF
5 mm) on the bottom side of the footrest
support plate. When the angle adjustment is
completed, tighten the M6 fastening clamp
screws (AF 5 mm) again to maximum 5 Nm.
This tightening torque should not be exceeded
as higher tightening torques can damage the
clamp.

For the longitudinal setting of the footrest
support tubes or adaptation to the lower leg
length, the M6 fixing screws (AF 4 mm) must
be undone on both sides on the outside of the
frame tube. The footrest support tubes are
then pushed along their slots and thus brought
into the correct position. Observe that the
footrest support tubes are both the same
length on both sides after they have been
adjusted.
Figure 54: M6 fixing screw with washer and slot in
footrest support tube for adjusting the lower leg
length
Once the position has been set, fix the footrest
support tubes by tightening the M6 fixing
screws (AF 4 mm) with washers to 7 Nm on
both sides.
Ensure when setting the lower leg length,
that no strong pressure is produced between
the underneath of the lower leg of the
wheelchair user and the edge of the seating
system.
With a product frame that has a larger
lower leg width at the top than the bottom, due
to the resulting tensioning of the footrest
support tubes in the footrest support plate from
the longitudinal setting, it is necessary to open
the M6 fastening clamp screws (AF 5 mm)
again on the footrest support plate. View the
procedure in chapter 22.1.

23 Anti-tipping support
23.1 Height adjustment
The anti-tipping support versions "central antitipping supports oversized, rigid welded"
and "2 anti-tipping supports with oversized
tube" can be height adjusted by changes to
the anti-tipping support forks. The procedure
varies with quick-release and screw-on axles.
Figure 55: Central anti-tipping supports oversized,
rigid welded
Figure 56: 2 anti-tipping supports with oversized
tube
For anti-tipping support forks with screw-on
axles, the height of the anti-tipping support
wheel above the ground can be set to different
heights by replacing or adding spacers with
different heights. If you need spacers to make
adjustments, please contact your rehabilitation
specialist dealer or PRO ACTIV.
Figure 57: Anti-tipping support forks with screw-on
axles
For anti-tipping support forks with quickrelease axles, the height of the anti-tipping
support wheel above the ground can be
adjusted by the screw-in depth of the threaded
bushing in the fork. If the anti-tipping support
wheel should have more clearance to the
ground, turn the threaded bushing further into
the anti-tipping support fork. If the anti-tipping
support wheel should have less clearance to
the ground, turn the threaded bushing further
out of the anti-tipping support fork. Loosen the
M20 lock nut (AF 27 mm), change the screw-in
depth of the threaded bushing and then tighten
up the M20 lock nut (AF 27 mm) to 35 Nm.

Figure 58: Anti-tipping support fork removed (antitipping support fork with quick-release axle)
The anti-tipping support design "Central antitipping support with oversized tube, length
adjustable (tennis)" can be height adjusted.
To adjust the height of the anti-tipping support,
open the clamp lever by turning counterclockwise (a half to a complete rotation). Then
the anti-tipping support can be height adjusted
by pushing in or pulling out the telescopic tube
into or out of the anti-tipping support tube. The
height can be infinitely adjusted. When the
desired height has been set, hold the
telescopic tube in this position and close the
clamp lever again with a half to a complete turn
clockwise.

turning the push handle, you have the option of
pulling the clamp lever out perpendicular to the
rotating axis and to let go into another angled
position via the integrated serration, and keep
on turning. This also allows the clamp lever
position to be aligned after the height has been
adjusted to the anti-tipping support tube, so

In this case, the anti-tipping support must be
cleaned. To do this, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the retaining ring on the end of
the anti-tipping support tube by loosening
the four M4 fixing screw (AF 2.5 mm).
Figure 64: Retaining ring with M4 fixing screws

of the anti-tipping support tube, if this has
not already come loose when the
telescopic tube was removed.
Figure 68: Telescopic tube pulled out; description of
the screw-in inlet (sectional view)
5. Now clean the inside of the anti-tipping
support tube and the outside of the
telescopic tube (please note the
instructions in the "Cleaning and care"
chapter) until all the contamination has
been removed.
6. Now remove the M6 grub screw and the
clamping piece. If the clamping piece
cannot easily be removed, loosen it by
gently tapping on the anti-tipping support
tube. If the clamping piece still is held
firmly in the tube, it can be pulled out
using an Allen key, for example.
Figure 69: Screw-in inlet removed; description of

7. Finally the retaining ring, the threaded pin,
the clamp lever and the screw-in inlet are
cleaned (please observe the instructions
in the "Cleaning and care" chapter) and all
sliding surfaces should be greased.
8. The anti-tipping support is re-installed in
the reverse order after cleaning:
Insert the clamping piece back into the
anti-tipping support tube and screw in
the M6 grub screw by 1 to 2 turns.
Insert the screw-in inlet into the anti-
tipping support tube from the front.
Insert the telescopic tube into the anti-
tipping support tube and ensure that the
inlet found in there is correctly
positioned. Here, the thread on the inlet
for the clamp lever must be positioned
directly behind the hole for the clamp
lever in the telescopic tube.

Apply the retaining ring to the end of the
anti-tipping support tube and fasten it in
place using the four M4 fixing screws
(AF 2.5 mm). Tighten up the fixing
screws to 2 Nm and secure them with
thread lock.
9. The height of the anti-tipping support is
now adjusted (see the start of this
chapter).
10. Finally, the adjusting function of the antitipping support as well as the fixed
positioning using the clamp lever must be
checked. When the clamp lever is
released, the telescopic tube must be
height adjustable using a little force.
When the clamp lever is tight, the antitipping support must not move under full
load. During this test, the wheelchair user
must lean right back in the product so that
the anti-tipping support supports the entire
load.
23.2 Replacing the anti-tipping support
fork
With the anti-tipping support forks, a distinction
needs to be made between the anti-tipping
support fork with a screw-on axle and one with
a quick-release axle.
23.2.1 Anti-tipping support fork with
screw-on axle
To remove the anti-tipping support fork
with a screw-on axle, the "Cap BK19 M12"
must first be removed from the anti-tipping
support bearing block, using a pair of pliers, for
example. Now hold the anti-tipping support fork
firmly and loosen the M12 fixing screw
(AF 19 mm) using a AF 19 mm socket, for
example. The anti-tipping support fork can now
be removed. Normally there is a spacer fitted
between the anti-tipping support fork and the
anti-tipping support bearing block. This must
be retained for the new assembly.
Figure 71: Cap BK19 M12 and spacer
Figure 72: Cap removed and M12 fixing screw

To assemble the anti-tipping support fork
with screw-on axle, the M12 fixing screw
(AF 19 mm) is inserted through the anti-tipping
support bearing block and, if necessary, the
spacer is placed under the anti-tipping support
bearing block on the M12 fixing screw. Finally,
the M12 fixing screw (AF 19 mm) is screwed
into the anti-tipping support fork and secured

23.2.2 Anti-tipping support fork with quick-
release axle
The removal of the anti-tipping support fork
with quick-release axle is done using the
locking knob on the anti-tipping support
bearing block and the holding tape. Pull the
holding tape upwards and simultaneously
press on the locking knob with your thumb.
The anti-tipping support fork now falls out of
the anti-tipping support bearing block
Figure 73: Anti-tipping support fork with quickrelease axle
Figure 74: Anti-tipping support fork with quickrelease axle, fork removed
Figure 75: Anti-tipping support fork removed
To assemble the anti-tipping support fork
with quick-release axle, press the locking
knob again and insert the anti-tipping support
fork from underneath onto the anti-tipping
support fork axle. When doing this, pay special
attention to ensure that the locking knob
springs all of the way out after attaching the
fork again, otherwise the anti-tipping support
fork is not properly secured.
23.3 Replacing the anti-tipping support
wheel
The procedure to replace the anti-tipping
support wheel is the same as replacing the
caster wheel. To do this, follow the instructions

that, when getting off the product, your feet do
not end up trapped between the footrest and
the ram bar.
To protect the ram bar from defects and
deformation from hard impacts, it must always
be protected by the plastic protective hose.
The protective hose is a wearing part which
must be regularly checked and replaced if it is
damaged.
25 Storage
When being stored, the product should be kept
in a dry environment and covered up where
possible.
To avoid corrosion and therefore malfunctions
or breakages of components, the product may
not be exposed to any aggressive
environmental influences (salt in particular).
26 Transport
26.1 Securing handling of the product
When loading or transporting, the product can
be held on the frame and on the back cross
bar.
26.2 Transporting people in a car
Transporting people, be it
the wheelchair user or
other persons, in vehicles
has not been tested by
PRO ACTIV and is
therefore not approved. All
vehicle occupants must only sit on the seats
installed in the vehicle during the journey with
the associated restraint systems. Failing to
observe this leads to increased risk of injury for
the user as well as for third-parties.
The waist belt which may be fitted is not
designed as a safety belt in a motor vehicle
and may not be used for this purpose.

26.3 Securing the product in a car
(without a person)
To reduce the weight, individual
components, such as the drive wheels for
example, can be removed from the product
and stored separately. The product and all
associated components must be secured
during transport so that they are not damaged
(e.g. by falling over) and do not become a
hazard to persons or other products. Check
with your car dealer before transport about the
risk-free securing using the existing fitted
lashing rings or other securing devices.
Suitable brackets are mostly available in the
car and are described in the operating manual
of the vehicle.
When the product is in the transport vehicle,
you or your accompanying person should
proceed as follows:
1. Secure and safely stow any components
from the product which have been
previously removed.
2. Bags and other objects not belonging to
the product which are on or in the product,
must be removed and securely stowed.
3. Secure the product with lashing straps. To
do this, use the existing securing devices
in the car. After securing, the product not
move or slip any more.
The lashing straps used to secure the
product in the transport vehicle may only be
fitted to the components of the car provided for
that purpose and onto the frame of the product.
Do not transport the product on the front
passenger seat. The product could slip and
impede the driver.
26.4 Passenger transport over
obstacles in the product
If the product with its user needs to be
transported over an obstacle and there are
suitable facilities such as a ramp or a lift
available, then these should be used. If such
facilities are not available, then the obstacle is
to be overcome by being carried by two
helpers. When carrying the product, it may not
be lifted by the side sections, the drive wheels
or the footrests. We recommend holding the
product on the frame and the back cross bar to
carry it.
27 Malfunctions
In the event of any malfunctions which cannot
be solved by yourself based on the operating
instructions included in the scope of delivery,
please contact your rehabilitation specialist
retailer or PRO ACTIV directly.
Malfunctions must be solved before any
further use or, if they occur during the journey,
this must be interrupted immediately.
28 Cleaning and care
Regular cleaning of the product is prescribed
to prevent the components becoming clogged
up due to dirt. In particular, the product should
be carefully cleaned after every major use.
To avoid corrosion and therefore malfunctions
or breakages of components, the product may
not be exposed to any aggressive
environmental influences. If this cannot be
avoided, the product should be cleaned
immediately after such use and moving parts
need to be greased. Regular cleaning prevents
corrosion and increased wear.
In case the product becomes wet when using,
dry it after use.
Clean the quick release axles of the drive
and caster wheels as well as the ball bearings
and grease these with a little lubricating oil with
high corrosion protection properties (e.g.
Neoval MTO 300) approx. every 8 weeks in
order to guarantee the reliable functioning
properties.
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
33
Clean your product with water, solvent or
neutral cleaning agents. Do not use any
abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive, acidic
cleaners, to prevent scratching or fading of the
coating or the anodised parts. Only use water
and soap to clean the seat and back padding.
The product must not be cleaned using
steam or high pressure.
29 Maintenance
29.1 General instructions
The product is not a maintenance-free device.
Therefore, please observe the following
instructions about maintenance.
If repairs are required or there are any
defects in your product, in the interests of your
own safety, you should contact your
rehabilitation specialist retailer or PRO ACTIV
before using it again and have the defect
remedied. Screws and other elements need to
be secured properly again after repairs.
For tyres with tread: As soon as there is
one or more points with less than 1 mm of
tread on the tyres, the tyres must be changed
as otherwise there is an increased risk of an
accident.
For tyres without thread: As soon as there
is one or more points where the tyre carcass or
the puncture-proofing is visible, the tyres must
be changed as otherwise there is an increased
risk of an accident.
Only manufacturer's original parts may be
used when ordering spare parts.
Repairs and conversions to the product
may only be carried out by your rehabilitation
specialist dealer or PRO ACTIV.
Tightening torques and securing details for
fastening elements as shown in the table in
chapter 34 must be observed.
29.2 Service schedules
There is some maintenance work or checks
which should be carried out by the user
themselves at regular intervals (approximately
every 4 weeks depending on the frequency of
use):
Check the tyres for damage, foreign bodies
and any cracks that form.
Check the tyre pressure and correct if
needed (the tyre pressure should always
be as printed on the tyre covers).
Check the function of the anti-tipping
device.
Check the stable stand of the seat and
back padding.
Check the tight fit of the fixing screws on
the seat and back system.
Check the function and ease of running of
the quick release axles of the drive wheels
and anti-tipping support forks.
If you should discover any problems
during these checks, please immediately
contact your rehabilitation specialist dealer or
PRO ACTIV. Service and repair work on the
product may only be carried out by your
rehabilitation specialist dealer or PRO ACTIV.
In addition to these maintenance tasks/checks
by the user, PRO ACTIV has prescribed
maintenance tasks to be carried out by the
rehabilitation specialist dealer or
PRO ACTIV for safe operation of the product
and to minimise the risk to the user or thirdparties.
The initial inspection is performed six weeks
after delivery. The maintenance schedule can
be found in the inspection lists in chapter 37.
Subsequent inspections are then always
performed a year after the last inspection. The
maintenance schedule can be found in the
inspection lists in chapter 37.
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
34
After extreme loads, an additional thorough
cleaning and inspection are recommended at
your rehabilitation specialist dealer for safety
reasons.
To maintain the operating licence and the
warranty validity, the performance of the
maintenance tasks must be documented. Any
faults identified during maintenance work must
be rectified and documented as such before
further use of the product.
Even if your product does not show any signs
of wear, damage or malfunctions, the regular
safety-related checks on your product must be
carried out in accordance with the
maintenance schedule.
29.3 Proof of maintenance
To provide proof of the maintenance, you can
use the inspection lists in chapter 37. The
inspection lists are also available as pdf files
which can be filled in within the download area
of www.proactiv-gmbh.com
under the link
"more documents
>>". In any event, keep all
receipts/service reports as a means of proof,
and get any service work which has not been
carried out by the manufacturer documented.
Please bring these operating
instructions/the present service booklet to
every service.
30 Disposal & Recycling
At the end of the service life, the product can
be disposed of by PRO ACTIV or your
rehabilitation specialist dealer in a proper,
environmentally-friendly manner.
The disposal or recycling must be carried out
by a waste disposal company or a municipal
waste disposal centre.
Special guidelines may apply on-location with
regard to the disposal or recycling. These must
be clarified and considered when disposing
(this may also include the cleaning or
disinfection of the product before the disposal).
In the following text, you will find a description
of the materials for the disposal and recycling
of the product and its packaging:
Aluminium: Frame, rims, caster wheel forks,
back cross brace, side parts, anti-tipping
supports, foot supports, footplate
Steel: Fixing points, quick-release/screw-on
axles, anti-tipping supports, screws, nuts
Plastic: Quick release levers, tube plugs,
caster wheels, tyres, footplate, side parts, antitipping support wheels, bags for packaging
Synthetic fibres and foam: Padding, covers
Cardboard/paper: Packaging
31 Re-use
If your product has been provided to you by
your funding provider and you no longer
require it, you should report this fact to your
health insurance company or your
rehabilitation specialist dealer. Your product
can then be simply and economically re-used.
Before any re-use, a safety check must be
carried out on the product by PRO ACTIV. In
addition to the instructions contained in
chapter 28 (Cleaning and care), a thorough
cleaning of all controls must be carried out
before using it again.
Before the product can be reused, it must be
prepared with care. A disinfection agent must
be sprayed onto all surfaces that the user may
make contact with. For this purpose, a liquid
disinfection agent based on alcohol must be
used for the quick residue-free disinfection
(e.g. Exporit 4712). Please observe the
manufacturers instructions for use for the
disinfection agent that you use. In general, a
complete disinfection cannot be guaranteed on
the seams. We therefore recommend that you
dispose of the seat and rear padding.
These preparations will be performed by
PRO ACTIV as part of the safety inspection.
This safety-related check must be initiated by
the funding provider.
Operating instructions SPEEDY F1
35
Moreover, in event of wear or due to
adaptation to the new user, components such
as the footrest, seat and back system can be
adjusted or replaced using the modular
system. With the optional equipping of the
product with a 7-way angle adjustable
backrest, the backrest angle can be adjusted
beyond the standard angles and can therefore
be optimally adjusted.
