5.5 drive wheel suspension jive f/r
The Jive F/R has an effective and adjustable drive wheel
suspension system as a standard feature. To match your
requirements on drive comfort, the tension of the springs
at the damper can be adjusted.
Turning the aluminium ring on the bottom of the spring
downwards will soften your ride, adjusting the aluminium
ring in a higher position will harden it. This option is
to be used to match the different user weights to the
suspension system. (
Fig. 5.7
). We recommend the
suspension adjustments are done equally on the left and
right side of the chair.
5.6 control joystick unit position
Depending on your chosen control system, there are two
principles of control systems: Quickie VR2 and Quickie
R-net controls (for details please see the controls section
7). The remote is mounted on a sliding mechanism
which enables the control to be moved forwards and
backwards.
Undo the locking screw, (Fig.5.3).
•
Slide the control arm either out or to it’s new position,
•
(Fig.5.4).
When the most comfortable position has been selected,
secure the slider by tightening the locking screw. Ensure
the locking screw is fully tightened prior to use and
especially when transporting your wheelchair.
