Options - Castors
The wheelchair may veer slightly to the right or left, or the castors
may wobble. This may be caused by the following:
• Forward and/or reverse wheel motion has not been set properly.
• The castor angle has not been set correctly.
• Castor and/or rear wheel air pressure is incorrect; the wheels do
not turn smoothly.
The wheelchair will not move in a straight line if the castors have not
been properly adjusted. Castors should always be adjusted by an
authorised dealer.
Options – Castor adapter
Seat height adjustments:
The seat height is determined by the castor and rear wheel posi
-
tion. The seat height can be adjusted by using different sizes of rear
wheels and by altering the position of the rear wheels and the cas
-
tors and by using spacers.
CAUTION:
After adjusting the seat height, all screws must be re-tightened.
Note:
The castor angle should be set at 90°. Therefore the front and rear
seat height needs to be always the same.
