For the seat height adjustment, as in the initial
position shown in the previous figure, the fol-
lowing steps can be taken:
1 cm reduction of the rear seat height: Rota-
tion of the wheel plate by 180° & moving the
drive wheel bushing back into the lower wheel
plate slot
2 cm reduction of the rear seat height: Mov-
ing of the wheel plate into the upper frame
holes
3 cm reduction of the rear seat height: Mov-
ing of the drive wheel bushing into the upper
slot of the wheel plate
4 cm reduction of the rear seat height: Rota-
tion of the wheel plate by 180° (drive wheel
bushing remains in the upper wheel plate slot)
5 cm reduction of the rear seat height: Mov-
ing of the wheel plate into the upper frame
holes & moving of the drive wheel bushing into
the upper wheel plate slot
6 cm reduction of the rear seat height: Rota-
tion of the wheel plate by 180° & moving of the
wheel plate into the upper frame holes (drive
wheel bushing remains in the upper wheel
plate slot)
If the wheel plate is initially mounted in the up-
per frame holes and/or the drive wheel bushing
is mounted in the upper slot, the seat height
can also be raised.
To raise the seat height even further, 3-slot
wheel plates are available. Here, the drive
wheel bushing can be mounted in the lowest
slot of the wheel plate and thereby achieve a
3 cm increase of the rear seat height.

TRAVELER usage instructions

18.1.5 General instructions

When changing the rear seat height each time:
the brakes must be readjusted (see Chap-
ter 26).
the caster wheel axles must be readjusted
(see Chapter 23.4).
the backrest angle may have to be reposi-
tioned (see Chapter 19.1.3).
make sure that there is sufficient ground
clearance under the footrest. Experience
shows that this should not be less than
4 cm (see Chapter 24).
if necessary, the height of the anti-tipping
support may have to be readjusted (see
Chapter 25.3).
18.2 Adjusting the seat height at the
front / angle of seat
If the seat height has to be adjusted, the angle
of the seat or the front seat height can be ad-
justed. This setting is carried out via the posi-
tion of the caster wheels in the caster wheel
fork and the caster fork size.
18.2.1 Adapting by positioning the caster
wheels in the caster fork
Adjusting the front seat height or angle of seat
can be carried out via the positioning of the
caster wheel in the caster fork. Generally, the
caster forks have three possible positions that
can be used to change the front seat height in
steps of 15 mm.
If the seat inclination or the front seat
height are to be increased, the caster
wheel is mounted in a lower position in the
caster fork.
If the seat inclination or the front seat
height are to be reduced, the caster wheel
is mounted in a higher position in the
caster fork.
