Toe-In/Toe-Out Measurement
2. Loosen, but do not remove, the two Allen Screws
located on the axle sleeve mount on each side of
your chair. Only loosen the screws enough to permit
the camber plug to slide in and out of the axle
sleeve mount. See Figure 82.
3. Slide the camber plugs in or out of the axle sleeve
mounts to increase or decrease the rear wheel
spacing. Make sure the distance from the end of the
axle sleeve to the end of the axle sleeve mount is
the same on both sides of the chair.
4. Securely tighten all four Allen Screws in the axle
sleeve mounts.
5. Reinstall the rear wheels.
6. Check the toe-in/toe-out and adjust as needed.
Adjusting Toe-In/Toe-Out with Adjustable
Camber System
Tools Needed:
3/16" Allen Wrench
• Ruler or Tape Measure
1. Make sure both rear wheels are equally spaced.
See "Adjusting Real Wheel Spacing" on
65.
2. Make sure the rear wheels are properly inflated.
3. Place the chair on all four wheels with the front
casters trailing toward the rear of the frame. See
Figure 83.
4. Measure from the floor to the center of the axle
("Measurement A"). Be sure the tape measure/ruler
is perpendicular to the floor. See Figure 83.
5. Block the wheels with a heavy object so the chair
can not roll forward or backward (do not use the
wheel locks as this may affect the toe-in/toe-out
adjustment).
6. Measuring from the floor at the rear of each tire,
mark the tire (with a felt tip pen) at the same height
as Measurement A.
7. Measuring from the floor at the front of each tire,
mark the tire (with a felt tip pen) at the same height
as Measurement A.
8. Measure the distance between the left and right tires
at the rear reference marks made in step 6. See
Figure 84.
9. Measure the distance between the left and right tires
at the front reference marks made in step 7.
10. If the measurements in steps 8 and 9 are the same
(within 1/8"), no toeing adjustment is needed, and
you may skip to step 13. If not, proceed to step 11.
11. Loosen the two Allen Screws in each axle sleeve
mount that secure the camber plug in place. See
Figure 82.
12. If the measurement in step 9 is less than the
measurement in step 8, rotate both axle sleeves
rearward to toe-out the rear wheels. If the
measurement in step 9 is greater than the
measurement in step 8, rotate both axle sleeves
forward to toe-in the wheels. Continue adjusting the
