6.8 Wheel Alignment
Adjusting the wheel alignment
NOTE
: To achieve the very best movement, the rear
wheels must be adjusted to their optimum position, which
means correctly adjusting the wheel alignment. To do this,
measure the distance between both wheels front and rear
to ensure that they are parallel to one another. The
difference between both measurements should not
exceed 5 mm. The parallel setting can be adjusted by
loosening the screws, (1) and rotating the axle adapter (3).
When finished, make sure that all screws have been
properly tightened, (Fig.6.8.1 to Fig.6.8.2). Re-tighten the allen
screws to 8 Nm.
WARNING!
Be careful, there is a risk of tipping when adjusting the
centre of gravity of the seat!
Adjusting the rear wheelbase width
The rear wheelbase is defined as the distance between the
upper side of the rear wheels and the backrest tubes and is
factory set, (1.25 cm). This must be increased if more space is
to be created between the tyres and the optional height-
adjustable armrests.
When adjusting the rear wheelbase:
•
Move the axle adapter (3), in a telescopic manner into the
axle bracket (2), or out of the axle bracket.
•
Loosen the Allen screw, (1), on the rear of the axle bracket.
•
Move the axle adapter, (3), in or out, until the desired
•
wheelbase is achieved.
•
Tighten the screws to 8 Nm.
•
Repeat the procedure on the right side of the wheelchair
setting the gap the same as for the left side, (Fig.6.8.1 to
Fig.6.8.2).
CAUTION!
•
When adjusting the rear wheelbase, set first one wheel and
then the other.
•
Wheel alignment needs to be checked and, if necessary,
adjusted after the axle adapter was moved or removed
(please refer to section, ("wheel alignment“).
