Rear Wheel Attachment Xlt Max - Invacare XLT Dynamic Manual

A
By changing the position of the rearwheel on the rearwheel attachment you can alter both the rear seat height
and the manoeuvrability/stability of the wheelchair. The further forward the rearwheel is positioned, the more
manoeuvrable your chair becomes, but with reduced stability. For seatheights and positions, please refer to the
seat height table on page 32.
1. To alter the height position of the rearwheel plate, use an Allen key to hold the screws (A) in place and loosen
nuts (B) with a fixed spanner. Choose the new position and fasten the screws.
2. To move the rearwheel (either backwards/forwards or up/down) on the rearwheel attachment, first remove
the nut (C), adjust the axle housing (D) to the required position and then refasten the nut.
3. You adjust the camber (0° or 2°) by turning the rear wheel fixation plate. See the markings (E) on the inside
of the rearwheel plates. R0 stands for right side, 0°. The marking with the desired camber should be placed
in the back upper corner of the rearwheel plate.
The tip risk increases if the rear wheels are located in front of the backrest. Use anti-tip devices.
Always remember to adjust the brakes, when the rearwheel position has been changed.
When you have fitted the wheels in the correct position, it is important that you check thoroughly that the
nuts and screws are tightened securely. The axle housing should be tightened with a manual and dynamo-
metric wrench calibrated to 40Nm. This is important for your own safety!
