NOTE: You can also remove the drive wheels to make
the wheelchair more compact. See "Drive Wheel
Adjustments."
WARNING! If you remove the drive
wheels, make sure the ball detents on
the quick-release
place when reinstalling the wheel, if
equipped. See "Drive Wheel Position."
Optional Caster Pin Lock
If your wheelchair is equipped with a caster pin lock,
you can lock the caster wheels in the forward position
to aid in transferring. The caster pin lock should be
engaged prior to transfer and disengaged prior to oper-
ating the wheelchair.
To operate the caster pin lock:
1. Rotate the lever so that the securement pin is not in the
groove to engage the caster pin lock. See figure 11.
2. Rotate the lever so that the securement pin is
securely in the groove to disengage the caster pin
lock. See figure 11.
Wheelchair Securement Points
The wheelhair may be equipped with four (4) tie-down
points for the purpose of securing the unoccupied
wheelchair during motor vehicle transport. Each tie-
down point is clearly labeled for this purpose.
To secure a wheelchair equipped with tie-down points:
 Always secure the wheelchair in a forward-facing
position in the vehicle.
 Attach the four tie-down straps only to designated,
labeled transit securement points indicated by anchor
symbols on the wheelchair. See figure 10. Tighten
the straps to sufficiently remove all slack.
 Never attach tie-downs to adjustable, moving, or
removable parts of the wheelchair such as armrests,
front riggings, and wheels.
 Position the anchor points for the rear tie-down straps
directly behind the rear securement points on the
wheelchair. The front tie-down straps should be
anchored to floor points that are spaced wider than the
wheelchair to provide increased stability. See figure
10.
MANDATORY! The wheelchair should
be used
manufacturer's instructions. If you
have any questions about the proper
use of your wheelchair, contact your
Quantum Rehab Provider.
