IX. SET-UP AND ADJUSTMENT
F. SEAT SLING
The seat sling can be adjusted through the use of
VELCRO® style retaining material beneath the seat.
Adjustment
a. Remove the screws retaining the left side seat sling.
b. Readjust VELCRO® style material to adjust the tension in the seat sling.
c. Replace screws and torque to 45 inch-lbs (5 N-m).
d. If there is any difficulty in reattaching the screws, try using a probe to help line up the
holes.
G. CUSHION (OPTIONAL)
Installation
a. Place cushion on seat sling with
VELCRO® side down. The beveled
edge of the cushion should be in front.
b. Press firmly into place.
H. REAR AXLE ASSEMBLY
1. Center of Gravity Adjustment
The most important adjustment on your Quickie All Court is the position of your center of
gravity. The position of your seat frame will determine your center of gravity.
• The further forward the seat, the more stable the chair becomes.
• Moving the seat frame back will increase your turning speed and lighten the front end.
For example:
Using hole 1 will increase your turning speed.
Using hole 8 will give you a more stable ride.
2. Wheel Camber
Increasing wheel camber angle provides greater side-to-side stability due to the increased
width and angle of the wheelbase and also allows for quicker turning and greater access to
the top of the handrims.
The wheel camber option from the factory is 16° & 20°.
3. Rear Wheel Axle Sleeve Adjustment
Tight axle sleeves (1) should be maintained for proper performance of the wheelchair.
a. To adjust axle sleeve, you will need an 1 1/8" open end wrench to turn the outside axle
sleeve nuts (2).
b. You will also need a 5/8" wrench to hold the axle sleeve in place while loosening or
tightening the axle sleeve nuts.
c. Loosen nuts and adjust axle sleeve in or out to desired location. Distance should be
equal on both axle sleeves.
d. Hold axle sleeve with 5/8" wrench and tighten nuts.
4. Toe-in and Toe-out
Toe-in and Toe-out are terms that relate to how well the rear wheels of the chair are
aligned. This will affect how well the chair will roll. Drag or resistance occurs in a wheel-
chair when the rear wheels are not properly aligned.
Toe-in or toe-out can be adjusted by loosening the axle-sleeve nut and then slightly rotating
the axle sleeve forwards or backwards.
a. Toe-in: To eliminate toe-in, rotate the top of the axle-sleeve toward the rear of the chair.
b. Toe-out: to eliminate toe-out, rotate the top of the axle-sleeve toward the front of the
chair.
To check that the rear wheels are properly aligned, measure the centerline to centerline of
the tires at the midpoint front and rear until the desired measurement is achieved.
