WARNING
The threads on the Button Head Cap screws and Allen screws #1 and #2 have been treated with Vibra-TITE® VC-3,
a locking and sealing coating, to reduce the possibility that they will become loose. You should be able to adjust the
cams and/or sideguards approximately four times without reapplying the coating to these screws. If you repeatedly
adjust the cams or remove the sideguard, TiLite requires that you reapply Vibra-TITE® VC-3 after every fourth
adjustment.
If you ignore this Warning, you could fall, tip over or lose control of the wheelchair and seriously injure
yourself or others or damage the wheelchair.
