Protect Your Shoulders With The Power Pack

Pushing a wheelchair for long periods can leave your shoulders aching and your arms tired. Even a quick journey can be tiring, particularly when you face slopes or rough ground.

With time, the ongoing strain can cause persistent aches. You might start avoiding particular routes, cutting journeys short, or depending more on another person’s support. The effort can overshadow the joy of getting out and about.

A Power Pack takes the weight off your shoulders—literally. This compact motor attachment helps propel the wheelchair, so you can go further with less effort. Whether you are a carer or self-propelling, it makes every journey smoother, letting you focus on enjoying your day instead of worrying about sore shoulders.

Protect Your Shoulders with the Power Pack

Pushing a wheelchair can tire your shoulders, especially on inclines or over rough ground. A Power Pack helps ease that strain. This blog explains exactly how it does that—and shows you which models work best, how to fit them, what real users say and how the technology builds trust.

How to Fit a Power Pack Step by Step

Fitting is straightforward, but follow the proper steps for safety and ease:

1. Read the user manual fully before unpacking. That avoids mistakes.

2. Attach mounting brackets to your wheelchair frame.

3. Fit the Power Pack motor unit securely.

4. Insert and secure the battery.

5. Turn the power on and test it on flat ground at low speed.

6. Increase speed gradually as you get comfortable.

These steps ensure a safe fit. Many people rush assembly and end up with misalignment or awkward handling. Following instructions builds trust.
