V. SET UP & USE OF YOUR WHEELCHAIR
AA. Wheel Locks
Clik wheelchairs are shipped with one of several different types of wheel locks preinstalled.
• Push to Lock
• Pull to Lock
• Push to Lock (Flush Mount)
• Short Thro Scissor
• Push to Lock w/Extension Handle
• Pull to Lock w/Extension Handle
• Grade Aids
• Low Profile Scissor Lock
The clamp assembly works the same for all wheel
locks.
a. Using a 5mm Allen wrench, turn one of the
screws in the clamp until it runs easily (less than
one turn).
b. Repeat the same process with the second of
the two screws so the clamp can be adjusted on the frame.
c. Adjust the clamp toward the rear wheel so, when
engaged, the wheel lock compresses the tire and
prevents any wheel movement (Fig. 36).
d. Make sure the wheel lock arms embed in tires at least
1/8 inch when locked. If you fail to do so, the locks
may not work (Fig. 37).
e. Retighten the screws.
NOTE: Always loosen and tighten wheel hardware by
alternating between the two bolts while
loosening/tightening a little at a time. This prevents
overclamping on one set of hardware which can lead to
binding of the fasteners and increased difficulty in removal.
Rear wheel locks are NOT designed to slow or stop a moving wheelchair. Use them only to
keep the rear wheels from rolling when your chair is at a complete stop.
• NEVER use rear wheel locks to try to slow or stop your chair when it is moving.
• To keep the rear wheels from rolling, always set both rear wheel locks when you transfer to
or from your chair.
• Low pressure in a rear tire may cause the wheel lock on that side to slip and may allow the
wheel to turn when you do not expect it.
• Make sure lock arms embed in tires at least 1/8 inch when locked. If you fail to do so, the
locks may not work.
DANGER: Failure to read or comply with these instructions may result in a fall or loss of control
causing severe injury or death to the user or others.
