Adjustments made to the wheelchair set-up could affect the orientation of the folding adaptor bar. Adjust the adaptor bar
whenever changes are made to the chair.

Next mount the folding adaptor bar onto the chair, again with the”T” bar facing away from. Place one end cap over the axle tip. Grab-
bing the other end cap, compress the springs inside the bar (Fig. F) and place over the opposite axle tip (Fig. G). If set up properly, the
inside edges of the end caps will be within the white strips of the tube (Fig. H). If not, adjust the number of dimples visible as needed
to achieve the proper spring pre-load setting as indicated by the end caps edge being over the white strips. Once this is set with the
proper amount of pre-load, tighten the other two set screws [one on each side that don’t engage dimples] to help secure the end tubes.
While looking at the rear of the chair, hold the adaptor bar, so that the “T” bar is away from you and you can see the white stripes on
the back of the end tubes. Place one of the end caps over one of the axle tips and slide the other end out and place it over the opposite
axle tip. Now move the adaptor attachment until it is centered (Fig. C). Note the number of dimples visible on the bar of the adaptor
attachment [they should be the same number on both sides] (Fig. D). Remove the assembly and move the adjuster bars outward so
that you can see the same amount of dimples that you noted before. Then move it five (5) more further for consideration of the spring
loaded end caps [i.e. you count two (2) exposed dimples then move the adjuster bars out so you have seven (7) exposed dimples] (Fig.
E). Position the set screws in the correct dimples then tighten, checking so the correct number of dimples show on each side.
