In modern urban life, mobility is crucial for the elderly and people with disabilities. While traditional manual wheelchairs provide basic mobility, they can be cumbersome for long journeys or navigating inclines. To address this, ELESMART has introduced the A6 electric wheelchair attachment, a power unit that can be integrated with existing wheelchairs to provide users with a more relaxed and efficient travel experience. We will detail this product's design concept, technical specifications, installation steps, setup methods, maintenance, and warranty policy from six aspects to help you fully understand this intelligent mobility assistant.


Product Overview: More than just a wheelchair, it's about freedom of movement.

The ELESMART A6 is an electric assistive device specifically designed for wheelchairs. It integrates with the user's existing wheelchair via a central connection, transforming it into a lightweight electric mobility aid. Primarily targeting the elderly and wheelchair users, this product is suitable for flat urban roads, helping users more easily complete daily commutes, shopping, walks, and other outdoor activities.

From a design perspective, the A6 emphasizes "ready to use" and "user-friendly operation." Its integrated frame structure is compact and does not affect the original folding and storage functions of the wheelchair. Users can easily convert the manual wheelchair into electric power-assisted mode in just a few simple steps, significantly reducing arm strain and improving mobility and travel efficiency. Whether on community streets, park paths, or flat surfaces in shopping malls, the A6 provides stable and reliable power support.

Technical Specifications: A Combination of Powerful Performance and Long Range

The A6 excels in power and range, with the following key specifications:

Motor and Torque: It adopts a 36V/48V 500W geared motor with a maximum torque of 45Nm. Compared with the gearless motor, the geared motor saves 20% energy and performs better when climbing. It can easily handle the slope of 8-10 degrees, ensuring high efficiency and energy saving during use.

Speed and Gears: Supports 3 forward gears, with a maximum speed of 25km/h (actual speed may fluctuate by ±5km/h depending on load, road conditions, etc.). A one-touch reverse button allows for easy reversing at a speed of 3km/h, enhancing safety and reducing user operational risks. Right-hand control of forward movement provides intuitive operation.

Battery and Range: Equipped with optional 7.8Ah, 10.4Ah, 12.8Ah, or 16Ah lithium batteries, the theoretical range is 35km, 45km, 55km, and 65km respectively (tested under 50kg load, flat road surface, and first gear). Actual range is affected by factors such as user weight, road conditions, tire condition, and driving habits. The 36V A6 with a 7.8Ah battery can be taken on airplanes, greatly facilitating wheelchair users with travel needs. Our batteries are all removable for easy charging and storage.

Display and Control: Equipped with a color TFT display screen and supporting a USB interface, it allows real-time viewing of information such as speed, battery level, and mileage. Our A6 also supports cruise control.

Charger: Small in size, similar to a computer charger, the charger measures only 104.3mm x 53mm x 26mm and weighs 300g, making it easy to carry and improving user convenience and experience.

These parameters ensure that the A6 achieves a good balance between power output and range, which is sufficient to meet most daily urban travel scenarios.

Installation and Connection: Completed in three simple and quick steps.

The A6 installation process is designed to be very simple, and users can complete the operation in just a few minutes. Here is a brief overview of the key steps:

Preparation: The user sits in the wheelchair, near the front of the vehicle, and checks that all accessories are complete, including the frame, battery, battery key (usually inserted into the battery), connecting rod, charger, and small tools.

Adjusting the Connecting Rod: Adjust the position of the connecting rod according to the wheelchair model and secure it with the nut.

Connecting the Wheelchair: Install the connecting rod onto the wheelchair tube, pull the A6 closer to connect it to the connecting rod, and ensure a secure connection.

Power-On Test: Turn on the instrument panel power and check if the display is normal and confirm that all function buttons respond correctly.

During installation, please ensure that all screws are tightened and all connections are secure. If you are unsure, please refer to the diagram or contact us for guidance. We also have detailed installation videos on YouTube for reference.

Instrument Panel Settings and Personalization Adjustments

The A6's instrument panel operation is very simple:

Wheel Diameter Setting: After entering the settings interface, you can select from various wheel diameters between 10 and 29 inches to ensure accurate speed and mileage calculations.

Unit Settings: Supports different unit combinations such as kilometers/miles and degrees Celsius/Fahrenheit to accommodate the usage habits of users in different regions.

Exit and Save: After each setting, long press the confirmation button to save and exit. If there is no operation for more than 1 minute, the system will automatically return to the main interface, and unsaved settings will be lost.

These settings, though seemingly minor, directly affect the user experience. Reasonable parameter configuration allows the instrument panel data to be more realistic, helping users better understand their travel status.

Cleaning, Maintenance, and Safety Precautions

To ensure the long-term stable operation of the A6, routine cleaning and maintenance are essential:

Cleaning Method: It is recommended to use a neutral detergent and a soft cloth to wipe the outer casing. Avoid using corrosive or abrasive chemicals.

Regular Inspection: Check for loose screws periodically, especially at joints and moving parts. Tighten them using the included screwdriver.

Battery Maintenance: Avoid prolonged storage with a low charge. Charge the battery before it drops below 20%. If the vehicle is not used for an extended period, it is recommended to perform a charge-discharge maintenance every three months.

Safety is always paramount during use. The instruction manual specifically emphasizes:

In case of emergency braking, do not rely solely on the front brakes; the rear wheel brakes must be used simultaneously to maintain balance.

During daily driving, avoid sudden braking as much as possible; gradual deceleration is recommended.

Speed Recommendation: A low to medium speed of around 12 km/h is recommended, especially in crowded or complex road conditions, to avoid instability caused by excessive speed.

These suggestions are derived from risk points in real-world usage scenarios, and following them can significantly improve travel safety.
