13.4 Removing the castor wheel

WARNING!
Castor wheel removal is a safety critical task. If you do not
feel confident in carrying out the following instructions,
please contact your Sunrise Medical Approved Dealer.
• Note which one of the two holes is used to mount the
castor wheel.
• Ensure that both castors use the same mount position.
• Depending on the castor wheel type use two 5 mm
hex keys or two 13 mm spanners to undo the axle bolt,
(Fig.13.13 & 13.14).
• Remove the nyloc nut in case of the hex bolt type.
• Always use a new nyloc nut when refitting.
• There is an enclosed spacer between the wheel
bearings. When refitting do not try to force the bolt
through. Gently move the wheel back and forth until
the bolt slips through.
• Withdraw the outer spacer, (Fig.13.15).
• Withdraw the axle bolt, (Fig.13.16).
• Remove the castor wheel.
• To refit, reverse the above procedure.
• Tighten to a torque of 19Nm.
