Although shifting the seat and back system for-
wards will counteract the tipping danger, it also
makes it more difficult to turn, steer and tilt the
product.
To ensure safe operation, the
tipping point
setting
should always be selected to suit the
wheelchair user's individual requirements and
abilities.
The tipping point can be adjusted by adjusting
the seat plate and back shell. You will find de-
scriptions on this in Chapters 17.1 and 17.2.
Extreme settings, such as a seat and
back system mounted far to the rear, are only
permitted for experienced wheelchair users
who are able to actively shift their weight for-
wards during operation.
To minimise the risk of tipping backwards,
we recommend using anti-tipping supports,
even with anti-tipping settings.
17.5 Adjusting the clothing guard on
the wheel arch
After adjusting the drive wheel position or in-
stalling different tyres on the drive wheels, it
may be necessary to adjust the position of the
clothing guard on the wheel arch. The distance
between the tyres and the clothing guard
should be between 5 and 8 mm to avoid pinch-
ing your fingers, scraping the tyres on the
clothing guard, and obstruction when grasping
the handrim.
On the
LITTY 4you
, there are no adjustment
options in this area.
On the
LITTY 4all
, there are holes in the lower
part of the clothing guard to adapt the clothing
guard to the wheel arch.
Figure 21: Holes to adjust the clothing guard on the
wheel arch
To adjust, first remove the drive wheels. Then
unscrew the three M6 fixing screws (AF 4 mm)
and two M5 fixing screws (AF 3 mm) from the
clothing guard on each side (Fig. 21). Now po-
sition the corresponding holes of the clothing
guard on the frame connector and the axle
tube. Then tighten the three M6 fixing screws
(AF 4 mm) and two M5 fixing screws (AF
3 mm) on each side with 11 Nm and 6 Nm and
secure them with screw locking fluid.
