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").
