G. WHEEL LOCKS

Wheel locks are installed at Sunrise and should be adjusted by your qualified service person.

Inspect wheel locks weekly per the maintenance chart. Do not use your chair UNLESS you ensure both

wheel-locks can fully engage. A wheel-lock that is not correctly adjusted may allow your chair to roll, or turn

unexpectedly.

Wheel-locks must be adjusted after ensuring the tires have the correct air pressure. When fully engaged, the

arm should be imbedded into the tire at least 1/8-in (D) to be effective.

If you find the wheel locks have slipped or are not working correctly contact your Sunrise Medical authorized

dealer for proper adjustment.

2. To unlock wheels, press lever (F) back down until button (E) pops back out. Each lever operates one

side of the chair. To fully lock chair, both buttons must be pushed.
