Setting Toe to Zero
NOTE: A wheelchair equipped with 0° camber plugs cannot have a toe-in toe-out condition. This
adjustment is only required when using 2°, 4°, 6° and 8° camber adapters.
Toe refers to how well the rear wheels of the chair are aligned relative to the ground. It affects how well the
chair will roll. Drag or rolling resistance is optimally minimized when the wheel toe is set to zero.
To Set Toe to Zero:
1. Loosen the cap screws (A) (1 per side) that secure the camber tube clamp.
2. Rotate the camber tube (B) until the screws (C) that secure the camber studs are level with the ground.
The toe is now set at zero.
3. Before tightening the screws (A), make certain that the camber tube is centered left-to-right relative to
the wheelchair frame. There should be an equal gap on both sides or none at all.
4. Tighten screws in a balanced fashion - tighten one screw to 50 in./lbs and then the second to 50
in./lbs. Return to tighten the first screw to 80 in./lbs. and finally the second screw to 80 in./lbs. Repeat
on opposite side.
