Adjusting the pressure brakes

The pressure brakes must be readjusted after
each re-fitting of a drive wheel.

Handling:
– Loosen the clamping screw (1, fig. 4) of

one pressure brake.

– Pre-set the pressure brake – Slide the brake

bolt of the non-activated pressure brake to
a point approx. 15mm to 20mm in front of
the drive wheel.

– Tighten clamping screw (1, fig. 4) securely.
– Adjust opposite pressure brakes as de-

scribed.

– Equally adjust both pressure brakes, taking

into account

• tyres of the driving wheels and
• tyre pressure and
• the weight of the person
adjust evenly. – Danger of accidents caused
by one sided braking effect!

Note:

You will find the air pressure values for the
tyres for your wheelchair in the Technical
Specifications or the information given
for both sides of the wheels.

!

Caution:

It should not be possible to push the wheel-
chair forward when both brakes are
locked.
