6:9 Adjusting the brakes
The brakes are infinitely settable.
- Loosen the nut (A) a couple of
turns and slide the brake until
the brake block is about 15-20
mm from the tyre when the
brake is not applied.
- Ensure that the brake is posi-
tioned straight in the groove
and tighten the nut appr. 5 Nm.
Test the brakes.
Tools: 5 mm Allen key.
If the rear wheel is positioned in
one of the forward settings it is
possible for a legrest, when swung
to the side, to unlock an applied
brake. To avoid this the brake han-
dle should be adjusted so that you
attain a “neutral” position. In this
way the brakes are released only
when the handle is pushed close
to the wheel.
- Loosen the screw on the inside
of the brake handle.
6:10 Seat angle
The seat angle is dependent
on the difference between the
front and the rear seat heights.
The seat can also be set angled
forwards.
For max. angle of the chair, see
“The chairs possibilities”.
Bear in mind the risk of tipping, always adjust
the position of the anti-tips.
6:11 Seat depth Cross XL with adjustable seat upholstery
The seat depth can be adjusted
(Also see “The chairs possibili-
ties”)by lifting the front seat up-
holstery and sliding it backwards
or forwards.
With Cross backrest 3A
triangular, the seat depth can be
further adjusted by means of the
lumbar angle (see the settings
section for Cross backrest 3A).
Brake lever extensions and
angled brake handles are
available as accessories.
- Remove the oval plate, turn
it 180°(the pins on the plate’s
inside must sit in the upper hole)
and tighten it again.
Tools: Phillips screwdriver.
The braking effect is de-
pendent on the air pressure
in the tyres.
The brakes are parking
brakes and should not be
applied during use.
(!) If the seat angle is changed:
- Adjust the angle of the
front fork attachment.
- Also check the angle of
the backrest.
(!) The functional seat depth is
dependent on the setting of
the back upholstery. It can be
upto 6 cm longer than stated
seat depth measured from
the seat tube.
The brake does not work
with 20" low pressure or
solid tyres in pos. A3, B4
or C4.
