Optional 24” Wheels
The optional 24” wheels allow the user to be able to self propel the
shower commode and provide a level of independence.
The 24” wheels are equipped with contoured hand rims for better
grip, solid maintenance free lightly treaded tires to ease propulsion
and quick release axles to allow to wheels to be removed and replaced
easily without tools.

- To install the optional 24” wheels there
are 2 simple steps:
1. Insert the quick release axles through
the center of the wheels by pushing
the quick release button (1) in the
center of the wheel.
2. Holding the wheel by the spokes, once
again push the quick release button (1)
with your thumb and pass the portion
of the axle protruding through the
back of the wheel through the axle
housing (2) until the axle protrudes all
the way through (3).
