ASSEMBLY GROUP WHEELS

2.3.1 Centre of gravity(wheel base, perforated
plate)
From the configuration of the rear wheels and casters, the
focal point, the wobbliness of the wheelchair, the seat height
in front and back and the seat angle can be set.
(1) To set the centre of gravity
• remove both rear wheels,
• remove all screws (A)
• displace the perforated plate in the alternative
holes (B).
• Displacement must occur parallel on both sides.
• Replace screws and tighten them.
ATTENTION
After every change made on the rear wheels, the wheel
lock must be newly adjusted.
ATTENTION
Slowly go to the maximum and from the user (!) wanted
point of wobbliness.
ATTENTION
The more you move the casters back, the higher the risk
that the wheelchair will tip forward when getting in or out.
The more you move the rear wheels with the perforated
plate forward, the higher the risk that the wheelchair
could tip backward.

INDICATION
Please make sure, that with the seat slant the grip point
and grip direction are not affected by a too high place-
ment of the rear wheels.

2.3.2 Seat height in front

�
INDICATION
Make sure that with the setting of the seat height in the
front that pushing under a table is not a problem and that
the knees do not hit the table edge.
(2) The seat height is set by the position of the casters in
the caster fork.
• remove the connection caster/caster fork (A) com-
pletely,
• mount the casters on both sides in the wanted
holes (B),
• retighten all screws.
INFORMATION
After every change you must check the vertical steering
head slant and, if necessary correct it (see chapter steer-
ing head slant).
ATTENTION
In the mounting parts of the casters, hair, lint, dirt, etc.
can collect, whereby the casters become hard to use. Re-
move the casters in short intervals and clean the forks,
axles and the husks thoroughly.
