SERVICE MANUAL
Whenever changing the rear wheel position, you have to adjust the side guard.
The side guard should be adjusted at approx. 5 mm from the tyre and it is fixed to the front frame with the bolt/washer V1 (this bolt also fixes
the backrest plate) and to the front clamp with the bolt/washer V2.
Each side guard is shaped to measure according to the configuration of the wheelchair when originally assembled.
The shape of the side guard always allow for a reasonable good margin of adaptation.
If the side guard is straight, you may leave it as it is.
Bolt V1 fixing
The bolt/washer V1 is screwed into a threaded rivet fixed to the front axle A. When removing this bolt, the front clamp, made of the inner
plate B and the brake support C (with the brake fixed to it), comes off the frame (if the axle turn when unscrewing V1, hold it with one hand).
Note: with the carbon fibre rigid seat, the axle is not present and the bolt is fixed with a nut.
V1
C
To assemble the parts, let the bolt/washer V1 through the hole of the side guard and through the hole of the
brake support C.
Position the support C on the frame.
B
Position the plate B and screw the bolt V1 into the axle A. Make sure the axle is cast into the housing of the plate.
A
While screwing the bolt V1, hold the axle A so that it will not turn and make sure the plate B is well leant against
the frame.
To fix the other side, the operation is quite the same, but it is advisable to insert the axle A into the housing of the
plate B and lean it against the frame before positioning the support C.
This operation may need a little forcing due to the pressure given by the seat canvas.
Finally, tighten the bolt V1.
