Rear Seat Height Adjustment; Rear Axle Plate Suspension; U.xtr Suspension - Quickie GT Owner's Manual

E NG LIS H
S. REAR SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
To adjust rear seat height, loosen and remove the 6 cap screws ( E) (3 per side) and nut plate ( F) that
secure the camber tube clamps (G) to the axle plates (H). Move both camber tube clamps (I) to the desired
height and reinstall the 4 cap screws. Prior to tightening, follow the instructions for setting the toe-in/out to
zero.
Tighten screws to 144 in-lbs. (16.3 Nm).
NOTE– Adjustment to rear seat height may also require caster angle adjustment.
T. REAR AXLE PLATE SUSPENSION
The performance of your suspension system is determined by the compression elastomers (A). There
are several different elastomers available from Quickie which are selected based on the user's weight.
To change out elastomers, remove the 2 screws (C) (1 per side). Rotate swingarms (B) downward and
the compression elastomer (A) can be freely removed from its top and bottom engagement sockets.
Reverse the order to install new bushings, making sure the compression elastomers are securely
engaged into the top and bottom sockets.
U. XTR SUSPENSION (optional)
• Tuned to perform in conjunction with Quickie GT.
• Adjustable spring pre-load
1. If the shock ever loses oil or if it makes sounds of excessive topping out, stop use immediately
and have the shock inspected by a dealer. Continued use with the shock in either of these condi-
tions could result in loss of control with possible serious and/or fatal injuries.
2. Always use genuine Quickie parts. Use of after-market replacement parts voids the warranty and
could cause structural failure to the shock. Structural failure could result in loss of control with
possible serious and /or fatal injuries
Tuning Your Shock
By matching the proper spring rate and damping adjustment, your shocks can be tuned to your weight.
When tuning suspension, always make one change at a time and write it down. This takes patience, but
allows you to understand how each change affects your ride. Keeping a record lets you know what changes
you have tried that work and suggests what changes you might try.
Washing Your Deluxe Shock
Clean your shock with mild soap and a toothbrush. Keep the shaft and body eye bushings cleaned and
greased.
IMPORTANT: NEVER USE A HIGH-POWERED WASHER FOR CLEANING THE SHOCK!
Adjusting Your Shock Tension
Locate the spring preloading adjuster ring (4). Rotate adjuster ring clockwise to decrease tension. Rotate
adjuster ring counter-clockwise to increase tension.
Test your new chair settings with a spotter before proceeding with use.
