Using the Quick-Release axle
Available as an option with the Neox Dynamic wheelchair, the Quick-Release Axle
can be installed to facilitate the removal and installation of the propulsion wheels.
Removal of the wheels can be done in three easy steps.
1.
Disengage
wheel locks. Depending
on the type of wheel lock installed,
either push or pull the handle to
disengage wheel locks.
2. Press down on the quick-release
button D at the center of the wheel.
3. Hold button D down and remove the
wheel by pulling outwards.
To reinsert wheel, hold button D
down and reinsert axle.
Note - Make sure retaining balls project completely out from the axle bushing and
the tip of the ball lock pin is aligned with the tip of the axle before using your
wheelchair.
WARNING
After all adjustments or reinstallation of the propulsion wheels, always
•
make sure the retaining balls of the quick release axle project completely
out from the axle bushing and that the tip of the ball lock pin is perfectly
aligned with the tip of the axle before using your wheelchair.
Keep quick-release axles clean and free of dust or lint to ensure its proper
•
operation. Lubricate if necessary.
Always make sure the wheels are securely locked before using your
•
wheelchair, an unlocked wheel may detach during use if not properly
secured and can result in a fall.
Propulsion wheel horizontal positioning
The horizontal position of the propulsion wheel directly affects the wheelchair's
stability. Placing the propulsion wheel toward the front, has the disadvantage of
reducing wheelchair stability but has the advantage of facilitating propulsion.
Finding the right position to maximize stability and ease of use is essential. The
different adjustments available on the Neox Dynamic wheelchair provide a wide
range of positioning options to better accommodate the needs of each individual.
