Procedure 5 - Wheel Locks

The wheel locks are adjustable in position to suit tyre changes and wear. As tyres wear, the wheel lock may not hold the
wheelchair as intended, so these need to be adjusted to suit the tyre condition.
5.1: Adjusting Wheel locks
Using a 5mm Allen key from the toolkit, release the 2 screws
on the underside of the plate (Fig. 9. A). Once the wheel lock is
loose, reposition so that there is at least 3mm of interference
when the wheel lock is activated. Tighten securely and repeat on
the other side. The wheel locks should have a firm hold against
the wheel but still able to use without excess force.
NOTE:
Before adjusting or replacing any style of
wheel lock ensure that the tyres are inflated
to the recommended pressure as indicated on
the tyre.

WARNING:
!
After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure all attaching hardware is tightened securely – otherwise
injury or damaged may result. If wheel locks do not hold occupied wheelchair in place please adjust as above, or contact
your dealer – otherwise injury or damages may occur. The wheel locks are designed to work when your wheelchair is static.
Wheel locks should not be applied during use and tyre pressure should be as indicated on the tyre.
