See the below figure, be sure the button is locked in the tube. And test its
function. (See Figure 4.24)
4.1.3.4 Rear Wheel
Your wheelchair may be supplied with quick-release wheels. If so, please
follow the instructions below.
4.1.3.4.1 Rear Wheel Removal
Support the weight of the chair with one hand by holding the push handle.
Depress the hub cover and hold down the quick-release mechanism.
Remove the wheel. (See Figure 4.25)
4.1.3.4.2 Rear Wheel Attachment
First ensure that the brake is in the OFF position. Take up the assembled wheel
and axle and depress the button in the centre of the axle, as above. This
retracts the ball bearings that will allow you to push the axle into the wheel
bracket that is located on the lower rear frame of the wheelchair. When you
remove your thumb from the button on the axle, the ball bearings should be
visible protruding from the axle at the back of the wheel bracket. This will secure
the wheel safely in the frame. (See Figure 4.26)
CAUTION:
You must make sure that the axle is fully located in the wheelchair bracket and
that the ball bearings are fully open and have positively attached the wheel in the
frame.
The rear wheel can be mounted at different positions on the frame to alter the
seat height and overall stability of the chair. Changing the wheel position should
be carried out by your approved repairer or therapist.
