How to Install Your Joystick Topper

Swapping your topper takes about a minute. No tools, no stress.

Install in 4 steps

  1. Power off your chair. Always start here.
  2. Remove your original topper. Set it somewhere safe in case you want to swap back.
  3. Push, twist, wiggle. Line your ATTA girl topper up with the joystick, then push down while twisting and wiggling until it's fully seated and snug.
  4. Power on and test drive. Use your joystick as normal. Your topper should stay put.

Taking it off

Same move, in reverse: twist and wiggle while pulling up, with a little force. It'll pop right off. Putting it back on works just like step 3.

Why so snug?

That firm fit is on purpose. A topper that wiggles, spins, or pops off mid-drive is no fun, and it's not safe. If yours ever feels loose, stop using it and reach out.

Keep it cool

Toppers are printed in PLA, which can soften around 140°F. Don't leave your chair in a hot car or baking in direct sun. Remember you can always twist off the topper and take it with you!
