FRONT LEG DRILLING INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 5
•
STEP 2 MUST
have been completed prior to drilling the front legs.
•
Place the chair onto a flat surface. Measure up 1 1/16” up from the
floor and place a mark on the inside of each front leg. This marks the
center of the hole to which the arm assembly will be attached.
•
Verify measurements. Drill a hole through each front chair leg. Using the ¼” drill bit, make sure that the holes are
drilled at 90 degrees to the positioning of the chair and inline with the hole on the opposite leg.

ATTACH ARM ASSEMBLY TO FRONT LEGS
STEP 6
•
Place the preassembled arms between the legs of the chair in a manner similar to the
finished application.
•
Insert the Pivot Stand Off Pin (#13) into the Wheel Link Assembly. Secure Arm
Assembly using the Bolt Assembly - Front Legs (#16). Use the Allen Key (#12) to secure
the Bolt while tightening the Lock Nut with a wrench - the arm assembly will rotate freely.
Repeat to the opposite leg.
ATTACH THE ELASTIC CORDS
STEP 7
•
With the chair placed onto a flat surface, lift the Arm Assembly and place the front
wheels onto a 3/16” spacer. Raise the Elastic Cord (#20) vertically…and locate a point
underneath the seat of the chair to which an eye hook can be secured (See Diagram B).
•
Mark the location. Drill a small pilot hole into the chair seat. Insert the 3/16“ Eye ID
Wood Eyescrew (#21), ensuring that it is fully threaded into the seat of the chair.
•
Place one end of the Elastic Cord (#20) through the 3/16“ Wood Eyescrew (#21).
Place the other end through the hole in the molded arm assembly. Secure by placing a
double knot at each end of the Elastic Cord (#20) - See Diagram C. Adjust the position of
the knot to ensure that tension on both cords is even. Remove the spacer…the wheels
should remain suspended approximately ¼” from the floor.

LEVELING ADJUSTMENTS (IF NECESSARY)
STEP 8
•
If the chair rocks on an even floor, it usually means that the rear wheels were not aligned
correctly. To adjust, please follow these steps:
•
Place chair onto a table. Both rear wheels must be in contact with the table. Check to see which
front leg is slightly lifted from the table. To correct, remove the Quickclick Glide (#10), Wood Screw
(#8), and Quickclick base (#9) from the leg which is NOT in contact with the table. Insert the flat
washer between the Quickclick Base (#9) and the leg of the chair. Reattach the entire assembly.
•
If rocking continues, repeat adding additional washers.
Required Items:
Additional Leveling / Mounting Parts (#19)
NOTE: The purpose for the Elastic Cords
is to keep the front wheels of the ROYAL
EZ suspended above the floor. The front
wheels only come in contact with the
floor when a caregiver steps onto the rear
pedal.
