SERVICE MANUAL

It is advisable to pread a

drop of mild lock thread
glue on all grab screws

WORK ON A FLAT AND EVEN SURFACE

Whenever the seat height is changed or as periodic maintenance, check the fork angle and, if necessary, adjust it in order to have the fork
axis perpendicular to the ground.

The adjustment is possible by means of the four grab screws

and

that make the axle

turn on the fulcrum

Perpendicularity

You can check the perpendicu-

larity with the help of a square

(or similar) vertically aligned to

the caster turned 90° with re-

spect to the driving direction of

the wheelchair

Screw

and

To adjust the fork,

once you know the direction (frontward or backward) towards which it is necessary to move the fork’s axle, proceed as

above-mentioned until reaching the correct angle.

You can also measure the perpendicularity by turning the fork by 360°: during the full turn, the wheel has to touch the surface in all posi-
tions.

If a headless bolt results hard to unscrew, DO NOT FORCE IT, but try to loosen the other two first.

If the fork’s axle (the axle

) results hard to move, slightly loosen the bolt of the fulcrum

(remember to screw it after adjust-

ment).

Once you reach the correct angle, screw all three headless bolts all the way down to the axle

, but without tightening.

In order to fix the system, tighten first one and then the other less than a quarter of a turn at once, the grab screws

and

(the front

ones) checking the perpendicularity; in fact, it may slightly change during this phase.

Should that happen, correct the angle proceeding in the same manner.

When you have tightened both headless bolts

and

, you can tighten the headless bolt

and

Check the perpendicularity again and, if necessary, correct it.
