OF SPOKES
NOTE: Invacare recommends that these procedures be performed by a qualified technician.
TIRE PRESSURE
WARNING
DO NOT use the handcycle unless it has the proper tire pressure (p.s.i.). DO
NOT overinflate the tires. Failure to follow these suggestions may cause the
tire to explode and cause bodily harm. Tire p.s.i. is printed on the tire wall.
DETERMINING/ADJUSTING TOE IN/TOE OUT (FIGURE 3)
DETERMINING TOE IN/TOE OUT
1. Inflate all pneumatic tires to recommended tire pressures (listed on the sidewall of
the tire).
2. Measure the distance between the center lines at the rear and front of the rear
wheels at approximately 12-inches from the ground/floor (FIGURE 3).
NOTE: For optimum accuracy, perform STEP 2 with the wheelchair occupied.
NOTE: STEP 2 may be performed with using alignment gauge (available as an option for the
handcycle). Refer to USING THE ALIGNMENT GAUGE in SECTION 8 of this manual.
3. Determine the difference between the two (2) measurements. If the
difference
between the
two (2) measurements
is
GREATER
than
1/8-inch (for
maximum rollability)
, one (1) of two (2) conditions exists:
a. If the
back
centerline measurement of the rear wheels is
SMALLER
than the
front
centerline measurement of the rear wheels, a
TOE-OUT
condition
exists (FIGURE 3).
b. If the
back
centerline measurement of the rear wheels is
LARGER
than the
front
centerline measurement of the rear wheels, a
TOE-IN
condition exists
(FIGURE 3).
4. If the difference between the measurements is greater than 1/8-inch, correct the
toe-in/toe-out condition. Refer to ADJUSTING TOE-IN/TOE-OUT in this
procedure of the manual.
