Rear axle camber
Wheel camber is preset at the
factory at 2
O
. More or less camber
can be obtained by increasing or
decreasing the number of camber
washers (1) located between the
bottom of the axle plate (2) and
frame (3) (Fig. 42). The 10mm A/F
retaining bolts (4) and nuts (5) must
be removed, the required number
of washers inserted and the
retaining bolts and nuts replaced
and tightened to 8-10Nm torque.
Note:
Both axles must be set in an
identical manner.
Rear axle toe in or toe out
The toe in is set at the factory.
Should you require more toe in or
toe out (Fig. 43B) increase or
decrease the number of washers
(1) at the front or rear of the axle
plate (2). More washers at the front
decreases toe in and increases toe
out. More washers at the rear
increases toe in and decreases toe
out. Remove the four 10mm A/F
axle plate nuts (3) and bolts (4),
add or remove washers as required
and replace the bolts and nuts and
tighten to 8-10Nm torque (Fig. 43).
Warning
Always ensure that toe in/toe out is
less than 15mm. Excessive toe in/
toe out may cause higher wear on
the tyres and friction when riding
the chair in a straight line.
