Seat height and angle
3.3.1 Adjustment settings
The seat of the V300 & V500 wheelchairs is adjustable in height and angle (0°-2,5°-5°-7,5°-10°).
The adjustment settings depend on the wheelchair model as shown in table 1 up to table 3 in this
section. Each table is followed by an illustration of the adjustment points. The adjustment
procedures are explained in §3.3.2.
The values in the tables are for the default seat angle of 5°. For other seat angle - seat height
combinations, the same table can be used. If you don't find the right seat angle - seat height
combination, please contact Vermeiren.
The adjustment of seat height and seat angle is based on:
• Relocating bushing (B) to a position above or under the housing (C) of the castor axle;
• Mounting front wheel higher of lower in the front fork (A);
• Mounting the rear wheel higher or lower in the mounting plate (D).
Wheelchairs with Bi5 armrests:
Do not install the rear wheels in the highest position (hole 1) to avoid damage to the wheels
and armrests.
