3.2.3 Replacement of brake cable
1. The cable for the caregiver brake needs to first be removed from the wheel mount. Follow
steps 1-4 in section 3.1.2.
2. See Figure 17, the assembly of the user brake as seen from inside the seat frame. Fully
unscrew the nut (6). Pull the end sleeve (7) back so it can be pulled free from the bracket.
3. Remove the nipple of the wire (5) from the brake lever unit.
4. Unscrew the end sleeve (5 in Figure 15) from the wheel mount. Pull gently outward and
sideways to free the wire from the guide. Turn the wire such that the nipple (6) can be
removed from the actuating plate (3).
5. Reassemble in the same manner. Check first that the adjustment screw (1 in Figure 16) on
the new cable is fully screwed in for maximum slack, this makes assembly easier.
6. Fit the nipple (6 in Figure 15) into the actuating plate (3). Then screw in the end sleeve (5).
7. Fit the nipple (5 in Figure 17) into the brake unit. Fit the end sleeve (7) into the wire bracket
and tighten in place with the nut (6).
8. Check that everything is correctly in place.
9. Adjust the brakes per section 3.1.1 and 3.2.1. Start as always with the caregiver brakes.
