3.1 Assembly Group Wheels
3.1.1 Centre of gravity
(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.
After every change made on the rear
wheels, the wheel lock must be newly adjust-
ed.
Slowly go to the maximum and from the
user (!) wanted point of wobbliness.
The more you move the casters back, the higher the risk that the wheelchair will tip for-
ward 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.
Please make sure, that with the seat slant the grip point and grip direction are not affected by a
too high placement of the rear wheels.
3.1.2 Seat height in front
(2) The seat height is set by the position of the
casters in the caster fork.
•
remove the connection caster/caster
fork (A) completely,
•
mount the casters on both sides in the
wanted holes (B),
•
retighten all screws.
After every change you must check the vertical
steering head slant and, if necessary correct it
(see chapter steering head slant).
In the mounting parts of the casters,
hair, lint, dirt, etc. can collect, whereby the
casters become hard to use. Remove the
casters in short intervals and clean the forks,
axles and the husks thoroughly.
Precede the same with synthetic forks.
