It is possible to make the seat width larger by maximum 10 mm each side, by
modifying the side guard fixing.
Remove the bolt
V1
and it corresponding nut.
This way, the whole brake unit will come off, too.
You have to replace the bolt
V1
with 5 or 10 mm longer ones according to the
extent of the enlargement.
Insert the longer bolt through the holes of side guard, put 1 or 2 spacers
A
,
position the brake unit, let the bolt pass through the frame and fix all the parts
together.
Remove the bolt
V2
and the nut
C
, then, turn the side guard up or down. This way, you will free the backrest plate, too.
You have to replace the bolt
V2
with 5 or 10 mm longer ones according to the extent of the enlargement.
Insert the longer bolt through the hole of the side guard, put 1 or 2 spacers
A
, put the shaped spacer
B
with its narrower side
Bx
up and let
the bolt through the frame and through the hole of the backrest plate.
Make sure to put all washers of the backrest plate correctly (you can use as reference the other side that has not been touched); in particu-
lar, another shaped spacer
B
is positioned with its wider side
By
up between the backrest plate and the frame.
(The shaped washer
B
, according to its position, changes the inclination of its flat side).
Now. fix bolt and nut
V2 C
making sure the sshaped spacers
B
do not turn.
Now, it is necessary to check the gap between side guard and rear wheel and decide whether
or not, to add spacers on the wheel receiver
.
In such case, remove the wheel receiver and add 3 and/or 6 mm spacers.
Finally, spread some mild thread lock glue on the receiver thread and tighten the receiver.
The maximum overall thickness of the spacer must not be more than 9 mm.
If the receiver is too hard to unscrew, heat the receiver, not excessively, and try to unscrew it.
If it is still too hard, heat it a little more until, after a few tries, the operation will be easy.
Advice: before removing the receiver, it is useful, as a try, put the spacer on the axle of the
wheel and put it on. This way, you will immediately see what spacer you need.
