6.5.2 Seat Height
In only a few steps you can adjust the seat height
to suit your needs.
1. Drive wheel height
Take off the drive wheel (see 6.11) to make it
easier. To adjust the height of the drive wheel and,
consequently, to raise or lower the height of the
whole wheelchair, you first have to remove the
drive wheel brackets. You can loosen the fastening
nuts of the axle bracket with a spanner (see fig.
20). Now you can remove the bracket and fasten it
at the desired height. Screw the nut tight again and
fasten the drive wheel.
2. Front wheel height
The height of the front wheels can be adjusted to
three levels. Loosen the Allen bolt (see fig. 21) and
pull out the wheel axle. Move the front wheel to
the desired height, then tighten the bolt again.
3. Angle of the steering wheel axle
The angle of the steering wheel axle can change as
a result of changing the height of the drive wheel
and/or the front wheel. This should, however,
always be at right angles (90°) to the floor
(see fig. 22). First loosen the locking device by
loosening both Allen bolts on the interior side (see
fig. 23). You can then adjust the angle with the aid
of the two grub screws (see fig. 24). Subsequently
