22.4.2 Adjustment of caster wheel bearing
block, clamped
The adjustment of the caster fork rotary axles
for the clamped variant is identical to that pre-
viously described for the welded caster wheel
bearing block in chapter 22.4.1.
With the clamped caster wheel bearing blocks,
the wheelbase can additionally be changed by
moving the caster wheel bearing block on the
frame. To move the caster wheel bearing
blocks on the frame tubes, release the two M6
clamp screws (AF 5 mm) on each side. After
positioning both caster wheel bearing blocks
(make sure the position is the same on the left
and right), tighten the M6 clamp screws (AF
5 mm) on both sides to 7 Nm again and lock
them with screw locking fluid.

wheel bearing block
23 Footrests
Make sure the ground clearance under
the footrest is sufficient. Experience shows that
this should not be less than 4 cm. This must be
observed for the angle adjustment of the foot-
plate support and when setting the lower leg
length.
23.1 Angle adjustment of the footplate
support
The following instructions are intended
for and may only be carried out by a rehabilita-
tion specialist dealer or PRO ACTIV
The
angle
of the
footplate support
can be set
by releasing the M6 fastening clamp screws
(AF 5 mm) on the lower side of the footrest
support plate. When the angle adjustment is
completed, tighten the M6 fastening clamp
screws (AF 5 mm) again to maximum 5 Nm.
This tightening torque should not be exceeded
as higher tightening torques can damage the
clamp.

23.2 Continuous footrest and high-
distance footrest
Figure 87: Footrest continuous
For the
longitudinal setting of the footrest
support tubes or adaptation to the lower leg
length
, the M6 fixing screws (AF 4 mm) must
be undone on both sides on the outside of the
frame tube. The footrest support tubes are
then pushed along their slots and thus brought
into the correct position. Observe that the foot-
rest support tubes are both the same length on
both sides after they have been adjusted.
