Drive Wheel Removal

To remove the rear drive wheels for puncture repairs carefully follow these instructions.
Release the four bolts shown as A in the diagram. Check the tyres for wear, if excessive,
replacement is recommended.
The wheel is a split rim. It is important that the bolts securing the rims together are NOT released if
the tyre is pneumatic and INFLATED.
Upon reassembly tighten the fixing bolts securely. The wheel is alloy, do not over-tighten as this
may damage the wheel rim.
If the tyre is being inflated with the wheel on the chair, ensure the wheel is off the ground during
inflation.
Inflate the tyre slowly to recommended pressure, ensuring an even fit around the rim.
