Wheel and gear management
• To remove the wheels, the gear should preferably be in the direct
drive (1:1) position (the gear lever is in the vertical position).
• It is possible to change gear both when stationary and in motion.
However, the gearbox works more smoothly when the wheelchair
is in motion.
• Check that the wheel is attached by pulling the wheel outwards
and even shifting gears once, and ensure that the wheel does not
slide out from its mounting on the chair.
• Inspect GEARWHEEL’s geared wheelchair wheels once a month
as instructed in Section 8.
