6:3 Changing front fork
Unscrew the protective stopper on
the front fork attachment to reach
the retaining nut. Unscrew the nut
and pull out the front fork. Take the
washer and ball bearings and put it
on the new fork (the bevelled side
(A) towards the fork). It is important
to ensure that the washers in the
attachment (under the retaining nut)
are placed in the right order, with the
spring washer (B) on top.
Tighten the retaining nut until it
cannot be turned any more. Then
loosen it
½-1 turn. The spring washer then has
the correct tension. It reduces the risk
of the castor starting to ”wobble”.
Tools: 19 mm box spanner
and Phillips screwdriver
6:4 Setting the angle of the front fork attachment
The correct angle setting is important
for the wheelchair’s manoeuvrability.
- Loosen the lower attachment
screw (A) about 2 turns so that
the tag (C) moves freely inside
the shaft. Insert the Allen key in
the hole (B) and turn until the
attachment is perpendicular to
the floor. Always start from a
position that enables the wheel
to move forward in the rotation
(D). Hold the shaft in place while
the lower attachment screw is
tightened.

Check and adjust the angle of the
attachment and tighten the screws.
Tools: 6 mm Allen key

useful).
