7.3. Rotate the Spring Adjuster going backward and downward. The two arms work in the
same way. Their weight bearing capacity is additive. Meaning that each spring carries
half the weight of the back side of the dog.
7.4. Adjust the tension on the Spring Adjuster until there is sufficient tension to support
your pet when standing and also when moving from sitting or lying down position to
standing position. The tension should also not be too much so that your pet will need
little effort to move from standing position to lying down or sitting position. This will
take some effort to achieve because it will need a bit of trial and error until you find
the perfect tension balance for your pet.
Hint:
One method of doing this is to initially set the Spring Adjuster to a very high tension
position. Then slowly adjust the tension lower while having your pet try using the wheelchair
at each adjustment until you find the right tension for your pet.
