For this model, the frame is individually manufactured and welded to measure, there-
fore, the front height cannot be modified.  

In most cases, however, it is possible to change the caster with a smaller or larger one 
as long as the front height does not change; otherwise, the fork angle loses its perpen-
dicularity. 

The  holes  on  the  forks  are  ½”  away  from  one

-another,  therefore,  if  you  change  the 

caster with one that is 1” bigger or smaller, you will have to change its fixing position to 

keep the original front height.  

The  position  of  the  caster  on  the  fork  (requested  on  the  order  form)  is  determined 
while designing the frame. 

As  long  as  it  is  possible,  the  design  allows  fo  assembling  another  size  of  caster 
(smaller or bigger) apart from the requested one. 

The three drawings aside show the most common combinations and you should notice 
that the height from the ground remains the same because of the fixing changes.  

If  such  principle  is  neglected,  the  fork  angle  will  no  longer  be  perpendicular  to  the 
ground.  

To change the caster, screw off the bolt 

V

 while holding the other.  

Remove the axle 

P

Position the caster to another hole, insert the axle and fix the bolt 

V

 holding the one on 

the other side. 

Pay attention to the spacers between caster and fork.
