Elevating Leg Rests (Optional)
Elevating Leg Rests (ELRs) offer an infinite range of adjustment for the leg angle and
a footrest adjustment range of 1219 in.
To adjust the ELR angle:
1. Press the release lever. See figure 16.
2. Move the leg rest to the desired angle.
To adjust the ELR length:
1. Remove the two screws from the side of each leg rest extension. See figure 17.
2. Slide the leg rest in or out to the desired length.
3. Tighten the bolt and reinstall the two screws.
Anti-Tip Wheels
Your Blast is equipped with spring-loaded rear anti-tip wheels, which travel up
and down to prevent them from catching on obstacles. Additionally, the anti-tip
wheels are linked to the drive wheels and actively react to sudden rearward
weight shifts, enhancing stability and safety. See figure 18.
According to personal needs and lifestyle, you may wish to adjust the height of
the anti-tips. By raising the anti-tip wheels, ground clearance increases, as does
your Blasts ability to wheelie for obstacle climbing. Lowering the anti-tip
wheels decreases the ground clearance, as well as limits rearward pitching,
increasing stability.
To adjust anti-tip wheels:
1. Remove the anti-tip axle bolt and nylon spacers using two, ½-in.
wrenches. See figure 18.
2. Relocate anti-tip wheel to one of the three adjustment holes, as desired.
3. Replace the wheel, placing the nylon washers on each side of the wheel,
then replacing the axle bolt through the center.
4. Tighten the axle bolt and nut so that the wheel spins freely but does not
wobble side-to-side.
5. Repeat process on other anti-tip.
NOTE: Each drive tire must have at least
30-35 psi
of air pressure in order for
the anti-tip wheels to be properly adjusted.
