It consists of two cross-bars which integrate the seat rails.
To fold and unfold your wheelchair, see chapter A “ General ”
paragraph 2.1. No adjustment is required on folding system.
2.2.3 Seat Height adjustment
The Atlas Lite allows 2 seat heights 50 cm (A) or 47,5 cm (B),
always delivered with 50 cm height (Photos 8-8A).
To achieved 47,5 cm seat height, insert rear wheel quick re-
lease axle (see chapter 2.3.3 for detailed operation) into the
chassis bearing (B). Loosen the front wheel bolt (6 mm Allen
key), extract the nut from A and insert into B, firmly tighten

2.3 Rear wheels
2.3.1 24" Wheels
The 24" (610 mm) rear wheels are spoked wheels. They can
be delivered with pneumatic or solid tyre.
A flat tyre (photo 9) must be removed in order to be
repaired.
Remove the rim assembly (tyre and inner tube), repair or
replace the inner tube, reinsert in the tyre and reposition the
assembly on the rim.
Comply with the inflation pressure specified on the sidewall
of the tyre.
!
Never exceed the pressure specified on the sidewalls of
the tyre, otherwise, the tyre may explode and cause injuries !
Pneumatic tyres wear out. In addition, the roughness of
the ground surface and driving have an impact on their longe-
vity. The pressure in the two tyres should be the same.
Replace them regularly to avoid trouble caused by puncture.
Please consult with your Dealer.
2.3.2 Handrims
They provide the wheelchair propulsion. They are made of
anodized aluminium.
!
Handrims are constantly in contact with your hands.
Make sure that they are not damaged !
