Wheel Locks - Quickie 2 Owner's Manual

3. Wheel Base Width Adjustment
Adjusting the wheelbase width allows the rider the option to move the wheels closer or further away
from the hips. It also compensates for camber adjustment and gives the proper wheel spacing to maxi-
mize pushing efficiency.
Adjust the wheelbase width by:
a. Loosen the nuts and reposition the axle sleeve (A) to the desired width.
b. Retighten nuts.
4. Seat Height Adjustment
Seat height can be adjusted by moving the axle plate vertically in the predrilled frame holes (B). This
adjustment allows a 3.375" vertical seat height adjustment.
NOTE– A front caster adjustment should be made to correspond with any change in seat height.
T. WHEEL LOCKS
The Quickie 2 wheelchair is shipped with one of four types of wheel locks. Wheel locks are installed at the
factory unless you have requested otherwise.
Use a torque setting of 144 in.-lbs. when setting up wheel locks.

turn.
b. Repeat the same process with the second of the two screws.
c. Alternately loosen the screws (two turns each) until both screws are removed.
d. Slide clamp toward the rear wheel until the wheel lock is embedded into the tire to prevent
wheel movement, when in the locked position.
e. Tighten screws to 115 in-lbs.
2. Ergo Scissor Wheel Locks
