1. Introduction
1.1 Indications for Use (IFU)
The twion® with Mobility Plus Package is a Power Assist Conversion Kit for Manual Wheelchairs. The intended use is to provide power
assisted mobility to persons with a maximum weight of 120 kg, limited to a sitting position, that have the pysical and cognitive capabil-
ity of operating a manual wheelchair by means of both hands. Product can be used Indoors and Outside. The device can expand the user’s
fields of activities by assisting their wheelchair operating force.
1.2 Important safety notes – please observe carefully at all times
The twion is an add-on drive for wheelchairs. It is intended for manual wheelchair users who are limited in their field of activities because
of their physical conditions. For safety reasons, it must only be operated by persons who
have been instructed in its handling,
can move and coordinate both hands or arms without major restrictions,
have the physical and mental ability to safely operate the wheelchair with the twion wheels attached to it in all possible situations and
in the event of the twion wheels failing to work, the user is able to brake the wheelchair and stop safely.
A one-to-one instruction session on handling and operating the device is included in the scope of delivery. Please contact your specialist
dealer or Alber GmbH agent to arrange for a training session. The instruction is free of charge.
If you feel a little unsure about how to handle your twion please contact your specialist dealer for advice.
In the event of technical faults, please contact your specialist dealer or the Alber Service Center (Tel: 0800 9096 250).
When operating the twion, observe the specifications of the wheelchair manufacturer (e.g. maximum slope, air pressure of tyres, the high-
est speed etc.), and strictly adhere to the operating instructions of the wheelchair. Never exceed any of the specified limit values.
We recommend refraining from using the twion in locations that are exposed to strong electric fields.
In rare cases, the operation of the twion may interfere with other electrical devices such as anti-shoplifting barriers in department stores.
You must not use the twion on escalators or moving walkways.
The twion wheels have to be switched off while doing sports in the wheelchair, for example weightlifting or something similar.
Combining the twion with accessories that have not been approved by Alber is also prohibited.
It is prohibited to start up the twion before being instructed in how to use it.
Contact your authorised specialist dealer or Alber agent for this instruction.
Starting up the twion before receiving instruction is contrary to the intended use and will, among other
things, invalidate the warranty. Any use contrary to the intended use involves a risk of injury.
When force is applied to the push rims of the twion, the twion wheels will provide assistance with
movement and braking. The force required to move the push rims on the twion is much smaller than
that required to operate a manual wheelchair. In order to brake, the push rims must be moved against
the direction of travel. The twion does not brake automatically in freewheeling mode.
1.3 Handling instructions
The twion must always be used, transported, maintained and serviced as described in this operating manual. The twion must only be fitted
to and operated with wheelchairs that are listed in Alber’s mounting database. The selection is made by the specialist dealer or by Alber
itself.
Do not attach any parts other than the accessories that have been approved for use by Alber. Likewise, not technical modifications must be
made to the device. The twion must only be operated under the following conditions:
Full compliance with the information, instructions and recommendations contained in this operating manual
The device is only operated by a person who has been instructed in its use
No technical modifications have been made to the device by the user or by any third party
An instructed person is a person who has been instructed in the operation of the twion and in his/her tasks and who has been made aware
of the possible hazards associated with improper use of the device. In general, this is the user of the wheelchair to which the twion wheels
have been fitted. The instruction session is provided by the authorised specialist dealer or by an agent of Alber GmbH. It is strictly prohib-
ited for any uninstructed or unqualified persons to use the twion.
The twion must not be used for any purpose that contravenes the intended use of the device. This particularly applies to all types of load
transports such as the transporting of household objects or additional people. Proper use includes complying with the information specified
in this manual on carrying out safety checks and observing and adhering to the safety precautions and hazard warnings for driving.
The use of the twion for any of the following purposes is deemed to be misuse by Alber GmbH:
