When the child grows, Wheeler grows too. The child in the wheelchair should be at the same height as his or her
walking friends. The following adjustments have already been shown:
* Seat depth (page 8)
* Seat width (page 9)
* Backrest height (page 12)
As the child grows, you also replace the rear wheels with larger ones and change castor height, see page 17. The
chassis tubing includes three notches for the rear wheel attachment. For 24” wheels, the rear wheel plate must
always be fitted in the rear notch, for 22” wheels in the middle notch and for 20” wheels in the innermost notch.
The only time that you need to move the rear wheel plate is when you change the size of rear wheels. The anti-
tip devices must also be adjusted when you change wheel size, see page 21. Instructions on how to change rear
wheels are included in the accessories manual.
