Wheel change
☞
Note:
A wheel/tyre change requires tech-
nical knowledge. You should there-
fore have this work carried out by
a specialist workshop.
Sitting in the wheelchair during a
wheel change is not permitted. The
wheelchair must stand on a level and
fi rm surface. Before starting the dis-
assembly work, support the frame to
prevent the wheelchair from tipping
over and secure it to prevent an un-
wanted movement or tipping over.
Always change tyres in pairs. Because:
differently worn tyres can impair the
straight-on travel of the wheelchair.
Disassembly of the drive wheels
For this remove the protective cap (1)
fi rst, then unscrew the wheel attach-
ment nut (1) and pull off the wheel.
Assembly of the drive wheels
After attaching the drive wheel
retighten the wheel attachment nut
tightly and press the protective cap
back on (1).
