2. Make sure the axles are inserted properly.  After  mounting  the axles, 
    check  to  be  sure  

the wheels won't

  

release  without  pushing 

    release button

 and insure that the axles are locked in place (

check 

    the release

  

buttons extend  completely

,  rear wheels spin freely 

    but can't be   pulled off), and 

two small elastic balls should come out. 

3. 

Axle Adjustment  - 

The

 

axle length has been adjusted at the factory 

    but it may be readjusted. To adjust begin by removing rear wheel: 
       Depress rear wheel's center release button and slide the axle out 
         through the camber. 
      Use a wrench to hold flats on axle stationary, and use a 3-holes-
         wrench (come with the chair) to adjust nut at opposite end.  

 

Street Use

Your wheelchair should not be operated on roads and streets except 
when using crosswalks.  At such times, use only marked pedestrian 
crosswalks and proceed with extreme caution.
 

 

Transferring

Never stand on the footrest foot plates while transferring because the 
chair may tip over. Always engage the wheel locks before transferring 
in or out of your wheelchair.
 

 

Wheel Locks

Wheel locks are designed to prevent the rear wheels from turning when 
the chair is stopped. It is not intended to slow down the chair when it is 
moving.  Adjust the wheel locks after making any changes to the rear 
axle sleeves position.

When reassembling the wheelchair after removing the rear wheels, 
insure that the rear axles are locked in place to prevent wheels from 
falling off.
