3. Wheel Base Width Adjustment
Adjusting the wheelbase width allows the rider the option to move the wheels closer or further away from the
hips. It also compensates for camber adjustment and gives the proper wheel spacing to maximize pushing effi-
ciency.
Adjust the wheelbase width by:
a.
Loosen the nuts (A) and reposition the axle sleeve (B) to the desired width.
b.
Retighten nuts.
Adjustment with Anti Tip Hardware:
NOTE–Before adjusting wheel base estimate distance the rear wheels need to move in or outward.
a.
Remove outside nut.
b.
Remove anti tip receiver hardware with axle sleeve.
c.
Thread axle sleeve in or out as desired, ensuring that the final position leaves the flats of the axle sleeve
parallel to the rear of the anti tip receiver.
d.
Insert anti tip receiver hardware with axle sleeve through desired hole of the axle plate from the inside
of the wheelchair.
e.
Re-install and tighten outside nut.
f.
Repeat on opposite side of wheelchair.
4. Seat Height Adjustment
Seat height can be adjusted by repositioning the axle sleeve (C) vertically in one of the predrilled holes in the
axle plate. Switch axle plates left to right (and upside down) for 1/2" adjustments.
NOTE– A front caster adjustment should be made to correspond with any change in seat height.
E. REAR WHEEL AXLE NUT ADJUSTMENT
Tight axle sleeves should be maintained for proper performance of the wheelchair.
a.
To adjust the axle (D) you will need a 3/4" wrench (E) to turn the outside axle nuts (F).
b.
You will also need a 1/2" wrench to lodge the ball bearings (G), on the opposite end of the axle, and pre-
vent the axle from turning.
c.
Turn the outside axle nut (F) clockwise to tighten.
d.
There should only be zero to ten thousandths of an inch (.010") of play.
e.
Check to make sure that the quick-release button (H) is flush with the edge of the wheel.
F. SQUARING THE ANTI-TIP TUBES
