Of course, all current processes for the BUDDY 4all and BUDDY classic will be completed as usual.

Please let us know – we will adjust the process accordingly.

                 NEW: LIFT activ with 30 cm seat height adjustment 
   
 Thanks to its low weight starting at 14.5 kg (in comparison to the LIFT solid), the LIFT activ is ideal for transport and for using the wheelchair at work, in everyday life and leisure activities. Reaching the files on the top shelf at the office in the morning, putting the dishes in the wall cupboard above the worktop in the kitchen at home at lunchtime, and having a conversation with family and friends at eye level in the evening – that’s no problem with the LIFT activ. 
   
 The LIFT activ is also the ideal companion for professionals who frequently change their place of work during the course of the day; for example, an architect who travels between the office and various construction sites. 
 &amp;nbsp; 
 LIFT activ with manual seat height adjustment 
 The LIFT activ is equipped with a manual seat height adjustment option, which is easily adjusted using an ergonomic handle. The continuous seat height adjustment is achieved with gas pressure springs. With only a little muscle power, the seat is lifted upwards by up to 30 cm. The release handle can be locked so that the handle can be used as a standing-up aid without activating the lifting function. 
    
 &amp;nbsp; 
 Option: Removable frame stem, foldable with divided footrest 
 The frame stem can also be swivelled out and removed, so that the frame ends at the front end of the cover and leaves a lot of space for transfer. 
    
 &amp;nbsp; 
 Various back systems 
 The backrest can be folded and adjusted at 7 different angles (without tools, as an adaptable back or back shell), offering flexibility for the seating position and enabling a small pack size. The backrest can be folded down at the lordosis joint, also enabling an optimum pack size for transport. As a further equipment option, the Ergofix backrest offers fixed lumbar support. 
    
 &amp;nbsp; 
 Would you like to have a demo chair for your consultations and presentations? 
 We would be happy to offer you a demo chair at attractive special conditions for your sales promotions. If you are interested, please contact your local sales representative.

                 NEW: Strength-saving version HUSK-E Neodrives 
 This HUSK-E version with 40 Nm torque is designed for touring in flat to hilly terrain (without long climbs). The immediate response when setting off and the constant support offer a great advantage for strength-impaired users. The long-running support, among other things, enables effortless travel. A speed of up to 6 km/h can be achieved using the starting aid without pedalling. 
 The neodrives hub motor is gearless, which results in completely silent and vibration-free operation. The rechargeable battery offers a range of up to 75 km. The range can be increased by up to 10% through recuperation. 
   
 Through the incorporation of the Neodrives drive system, the HUSK-E is offered in two model variants: 
 Powerful HUSK-E EP8 version (85 Nm) 
 
 Designed for uneven terrain, hills, climbs and challenging routes 
 For users with reduced strength and greater impairments and for everyone who needs a powerful drive for a strong helping hand that can be accessed at any time 
 HS version for best possible response behaviour 
 Dérailleur and hub gear systems are possible

 &amp;nbsp; 
 Pinion gear shift 
 The 6 or 9 speed Pinion gear shift uses a grip shift. These gears are protected against dirt and water with a closed housing and are therefore low-maintenance. 
 The fine, even gradations of the gears with a high transmission range mean smoother handling, as it is always possible to drive in the right gear. The option to shift while stationary provides safe handling. If you need to stop before a traffic light or on a slope, you can shift to the lowest gear while stationary, allowing an easier start-up.

                 We will adjust the prices for our products and spare parts, as well as the prices for transport costs in the first and second quarter of 2022. Thanks to process optimisation, we have been able to keep prices stable over the last 4 years. However, rising material and labour costs, as well as increased prices in procurement, now make it necessary to recalculate prices. The price adjustment will take place in May 2022. 
 In the case of  offers  which are previously still made at the currently valid prices, we adhere to price fixing in line with the validity of the offer. 
 We will provide you with the updated  order sheets  in the download area as soon as possible. You can always find the latest version of our sales documents in the download area on our homepage   here &amp;gt;&amp;gt;  
 We will be happy to provide you with a  price list in Excel format  from June onwards. Please contact  info(at)proactiv-gmbh.de  
 The continuing cost increases within the logistics industry affect us directly. These are characterised by a shortage of cargo space and sharply rising diesel costs. In order to be able to continue to offer you the standard you are used to, we have recalculated the transport costs. We will pass on part of the increased costs, therefore the transport costs for all new transactions will increase by approx. 6.0% from 03/1/2022. In order to minimise further expected cost increases in the medium term, we are working on new, optimised packaging forms. 
 We hope for your understanding and look forward to continuing to cooperate with you.

                 For merchandise management reasons, our item master data is being revised. The following changes will come about in the future: 
 
 In future, our  sales items for new products  will begin with  A9xxx  and no longer with 9xxx, as was previously the case. 
 In future, our  replacement part items  will begin with  E8xxx  and no longer with 8xxx, as was previously the case. 
 For commissioning, the article  E800 000 0000  Flat rate for commissioning (spare parts sales without assembly), or  E800 000 0001  Flat rate for commissioning (spare parts sales repair at PRO ACTIV) is also required internally. These two items will therefore be listed in the delivery documents in future, but you will not be invoiced for them. 
 
 The changeover will take until the end of the year. If you need a new item list in Excel format, we will be happy to send it to you once the process is complete.
