One Hand Wheel Locks
Your wheelchair is equipped with two sets of wheel locks, that operate
from the left or the right side. They are applied directly against the tyres. To
engage, press the wheel-lock lever forward against the stop. To release the
wheel, pull the lever back to the original position.
Holding power will decrease with:
• Worn tyre tread
• Tyre pressure that is too low
• Wet tyres
• Improperly adjusted wheel locks.
WARNING!
• The wheel locks have not been designed to be used as brakes for a
moving wheelchair.
• The wheel locks should therefore never be used to brake a moving
wheelchair.
• Always use the handrims for braking.
• Make sure that the gap between the tyres and wheel locks complies with
given specifications.
To readjust, loosen screws, (1) and set the appropriate interval.
Tighten screw, Fig.6.2.4 - 6.2.5 (see the page on torque).
CAUTION!
After each adjustment of the rear wheels, check the interval to the wheel
locks and readjust if necessary.
