V ADJUSTMENTS
The Metro IC3 offers several adjustments to make it easier and more
comfortable to drive. Part VII, MAINTENANCE, offers preventive
maintenance suggestions for keeping your wheelchair in excellent
condition; ensure that all components are in excellent condition before
adjusting. The following are recommended methods; after a few adjust-
ments, you may develop your own. Always consult your Graham-Field
Health Products dealer for assistance.
The person performing adjustments on the Metro IC3 has the responsi-
bility of making certain that the user can safely operate the wheelchair
with the adjustments selected. This person must evaluate the user's
ability, weight, physical condition, the environment in which the wheel-
chair will be used, and the terrain over which the wheelchair will travel.
All adjustments and their page locations are referenced in the index at
the end of this manual. Specific tools needed to perform each adjust-
ment are identified in adjustment directions. A complete list of tools
needed to perform all adjustments in this section follows:
Phillips screwdriver
7/16" wrench
1/2" wrench
3/8" wrench
M13 wrench
M6 hex key
REAR WHEELS & CASTERS
We recommend that you do not replace or adjust rear wheel or caster
components yourself, since special tools and training are required.
Please contact your Graham-Field Health Products dealer when your
rear wheels or casters need adjustment.
