8.10.3  ADJUSTING THE CASTER HOUSING ANGLE

•  All four wheels should be touching the floor.

•  Use the integrated level on the fork housing.

•  If the caster housing is not level, loosen the screws (1).

•  Rotate the caster housing to adjust the angle until the bubble is 

centered in the level.

•  Tighten screws (1). This will hold the caster housing position.

•  Check again the integrated level to make sure that the caster 

housing is perpendicular to the ground.

balls) and turn the nut behind the quick release button to 

change the length of the axle.

•  Reinstall the quick release into the axle bushing on the wheel-

chair.

•  Quick release detent balls should extend beyond the axle bush-

ing for a secure lock.

 

8.11.2  REPLACING/ADJUSTING HANDRIMS

•  On the Newton One wheel, the tire may stay in position. Use a 

plastic tire removal tool to take off the tire (1).

•  Remove all nuts (2) inside the rim (3).

•  Replace the handrim (4) with a new one and align the mounting 

holes (5).

•  Reinstall and tighten the nuts (2) firmly.

WARNING

The seat height, seat depth, back angle, seating system/ up-

holstery, size/position of the rear wheels, size/position of the 

casters, as well as the user condition directly relate to the 

stability of the wheelchair. Any change to any of these com-

binations may reduce the wheelchair’s stability. Seat-to-floor 

heights have specific positions depending on rear wheel size, 

rear wheel position, caster size/ position and seat-to-floor 

angle. These adjustments MUST be performed by a qualified 

technician.

8.11.4  ADJUSTING REAR WHEEL SPACING

•  Loosen the screws (1) below the rear camber tube clamp (left 

and right).

•  Move axle bushing in or out of the rear camber tube. NEVER 

move the bushing further than indicated on its top.

•  Tighten the screws on both rear camber tube clamp (left and 

right).
