Chair adjustments
Castor angle adjustment
For optimum performance, the
castor housing should always be
perpendicular to the floor (Fig. 42).
This adjustment is made with
eccentric (offset) bolts (1). To
change the angle, place the chair
on a flat surface (such as a table.)
Remove the 10mm A/F bolt nuts (2)
from the back side of the castor
housing (3). You will note that the
castor housing is slotted at the side
for adjustment. Place a large right
angled object (4) against the flat
surface and the front surface of the
castor bearing housing (5). This will
align the castor stem rotational axis
perpendicular to the floor surface.
Rotate the bolts independently until
they fall into position. When the
alignment is satisfactory, re-tighten
the two retaining bolts to 8-10Nm
torque. Repeat the process for the
other castor.
Castor reversibility
The castor plate (Fig. 43) is
generally mounted in a forwards
facing position (1). However, if
additional footrest clearance is
necessary, the castor housing can
be reversed (2), by moving the left
housing on to the right side of the
frame, and the right housing on to
the left side of the frame.
After reversing the castors follow
the procedure for castor angle
adjustment to reset the angle of
each castor.
