CHAPTER 11: CASTERS, FORKS AND CASTER PIN LOCKS

Replacing Forks

Tools Needed:

• 9/16” Socket Wrench

WARNING

On the ZR Series, the fork stem is permanently installed in the “Bullet” Caster Housing. Do not attempt to unscrew

the fork stem or the set screw. If it should become necessary to replace the fork stem on these chairs, this repair

can only be performed by TiLite at our factory.

If you ignore this Warning, you may fall, tip over or lose control of the

wheelchair and seriously injure yourself or others or damage the wheelchair.

WARNING

On the Aero Z Series 1 and ZRA Series 1, the fork stem is permanently installed in the “Bullet” Caster Housing. If

it should become necessary to replace the fork stem, you will need to order the “Bullet” Caster Housing/fork stem

assembly.

If you ignore this Warning, you may fall, tip over or lose control of the wheelchair and seriously injure

yourself or others or damage the wheelchair.

1. Remove the casters. See “Replacing Casters” on page 11-1.

2. Loosen and remove the nylock nut and washer that secure the fork to the fork stem. See Figures 11-1 through

11-5.

3. Remove the old fork and caster cap and install the replacement fork and old caster cap on the fork stem.

4. Replace the nylock nut and washer and securely tighten.

5. Reinstall the casters. See “Replacing Casters” on page 11-1.

SLIpSTREAM SINGLE-SIDED FORK

Replacing Casters

Tools Needed:

• 1/8” Allen Wrench

1. Remove the Allen screw and caster cap from the caster. See Figures 11-6 and 11-7.

2. Remove the caster from the Single-Sided Fork.

3. Install the new caster onto the Single-Sided Fork, replace the single-sided caster cap and securely tighten the

screw so there is no space between the caster and the Single-Sided Fork side. If you have Performance casters

be sure the “dish” of the caster faces outward as the fork is trailing rearward.

Note: If you are replacing your casters with a wider caster, you must replace the axle with a longer axle.

Likewise, if you are replacing your wide caster with a smaller width caster, make sure you also order the shorter axle.

WARNING

The threads on the screws that secure the casters to the fork are treated with Vibra-TITE

VC-3, a locking and sealing

coating, to reduce the possibility they will become loose. You should be able to remove and reinstall these screws

approximately four times without reapplying the coating. If you repeatedly remove and reinstall these screws, TiLite

requires that you reapply Vibra-TITE

VC-3 after every fourth adjustment.

If you ignore this Warning, you may fall, tip

over or lose control of the wheelchair and seriously injure yourself or others or damage the wheelchair.
