Options - Stabilising Bar

RECLINER STABILISING BAR
Open star-knob (1) and swing the
stabilising bar (2) out of the way
before folding the chair.
To reinstate the wheelchair, reverse
the above procedure, (Fig. 38.0).
DANGER!
• Before using the wheelchair
ensure that the stabiliser bar and
star-knobs are in place and are
tightened correctly.
• Never use the stabiliser bar to lift the chair!
Options – Headrests
HEADRESTS
The headrest can be raised and
moved both forwards and
backwards. To do this, simply
loosen the screw, adjust the
headrest to the desired position,
and tighten the screw (see the
section on torque) (Fig. 39.0).
Options – Transit wheels
TRANSIT WHEELS
Transit wheels should be used wherever
your wheelchair would be too wide if the
rear wheels were used (e.g., in airplanes,
buses, etc.). After the rear wheels have
been removed with the aid of the quick-
release axles, the transit wheels can
immediately be used to continue riding.
The transit wheels are mounted so that
they are approx. 3 centimeters above the
ground when not in use. They are thus
out of the way when riding, transporting
or when tipping to pass over obstacles
(e.g., kerbs, steps, etc.) (Fig. 40.0).
CAUTION:
Your wheelchair does not have any wheel locks when the transit
wheels are being used.

Tyres and Mounting

Tyres and mounting
Pneumatic tyres are fitted as standard from the factory.
If pneumatic tyres are used, make sure that you maintain the
correct tyre pressure, as this can have an effect on wheelchair
performance. If the tyre pressure is too low, rolling resistance will
increase, requiring more effort to move the chair forward. Low tyre
pressure also has a negative impact on manoeuvrability. If the tyre
pressure is too high, the tyre could burst. The correct pressure for a
given tyre is printed on the surface of the tyre itself.
Tyres can be mounted the same way as an ordinary bicycle tyre.
Before installing a new inner tube, you should always make sure
that the base of the rim and the interior of the tyre are free of
foreign objects. Check the pressure after mounting or repairing a
tyre. It is critical to your safety and to the wheelchair's performance
that regulation air pressure be maintained and that tyres be in good
condition.
