Angle Adjustable Backrest; Sideguards - Sunrise Medical Quickie Life RT Notice D'utilisation

Cambers
Cambers (Fig. 6.24 - 6.24.1)
The camber of the chair can be adjusted from 1° to 6°.
Doing this gives increased stability against the wheelchair falling
to the side, and will also improve the wheelchair's
manoeuvrability.
Loosen the screws on the perforated plate (1). Then adjust the
adapter (2) to the desired angle setting. Then tighten the screws
again (see the page on torque).
Setting the wheel camber increases the overall width of the
wheelchair (each degree adds on approx. 1 cm).
CAUTION
!
If necessary, the brakes and castors must be re-adjusted.
