Wheel locks
Wheel locks
To adjust, loosen the screws (1) on
the clamp (2). Using a 5mm Allen
key turn one of the screws
anticlockwise ¼ turn (Fig. 70).
Repeat the process with the
second of the two screws. Loosen
the screws until the clamp can slide
freely. Slide the clamp towards the
rear wheel until the grip bar (3)
embeds into the tyre (4)
approximately 4mm (3/16") when in
the locked position. Tighten the
screws to a torque setting of 15Nm.
Warning
Wheel locks when properly
adjusted, prevent the rear wheels
from turning when the chair is
stationary. Always adjust the wheel
locks after making any changes to
the rear axles sleeves position, so
that the grip bar embeds into the
tyre approximately 4mm (3/16")
when in the locked position.
Knee brake
Operating position and adjustment
instructions for the kneebrake
wheel lock are shown in Fig. 21.
Slaken the two screws (1) on the
wheel lock clamp and slide the
brake to achieve the correct wheel
lock gap, then retighten.
The wheel lock gap (2) (which is
the gap between the nearest point
of the wheel lock and the tyre)
should be 3mm with pneumatic
tyres (tyres filled with air) and 5mm
with solid tyres, when the wheel
lock is in the released position.
