Options - Castor Adapter
The seat height is determined by the castor and rear wheel position. The seat
height can be adjusted by
altering the position of the rear wheels and the castors and by using spacers.
CAUTION!
After adjusting the seat height, all screws must be re-tightened and the wheel
lock must be readjusted.
NOTE:
You can change the angle of the castor axle by altering the position of the castor/rear wheel. This should
always be approx. 90°.
Adjusting The Castor Axle Angle:
Release the screws (1), pull the castor adaptor
outwards, set a 90° angle and then re-tighten the
screws (Fig. 17-18).
CAUTION!
The castor axle angle must be set the same on both sides (check by marking).
Horizontal Axle Position
The axle plate can be adjusted forwards to give greater manoeuvrability or to the
rear to give greater stability (Fig. 19). The larger the wheelbase the greater the
security against your wheelchair tipping over.
Options - Backrest
Height-Adjustable
Backrest
The height of the backrest can be set to 2 or 3 different positions (depending on
the model) (41 cm, 43.5 cm and 46 cm). Release and remove the bolts (1)+(2),
and push the backrest tube to the desired position. Tighten up the bolts again
(Fig. 20).
