ADJUSTING THE CALF PAD
(Fig 19).
The calf pad can be adjusted as
follows:
Height: Open bolt (4) and move the
clamping piece to the desired
position. By rotating the clamping
piece also the angle can be
adjusted.
Depth: Open bolt (5) and move the
calf pad into the desired position.
Width: Open bolt (5) and position the
spacers (6) behind the pad, to get
the desired position.
WARNING!
•
Keep hands clear of the adjustable mechanism between the
frame and the movable parts of the foot rest, while elevating or
lowering the footrest.
•
Always make sure that the fasteners are secure.
•
The foot rests must not be used to lift or to carry the
wheelchair.
•
Risk of trapping fingers! When moving the foot rest up or
down, do not put your fingers in the adjusting mechanism
between the moving parts of the foot rest.
AMPUTEE SUPPORT
(Fig.20).
The Amputee Support can be
adjusted in every direction as
required.
Options - Castors
CASTORS, CASTOR PLATES, FORKS
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. The wheel locks must be checked every time
the rear wheel position has been altered.
Options - Castor Adapter
The seat height is determined by the
castor and rear wheel position. The
seat height can be adjusted by
altering the position of the rear
wheels and the castors and by using
spacers, (Fig.21).
CAUTION!
After adjusting the seat height, all
screws must be re-tightened and the
wheel lock must be readjusted.

NOTE:
You can change the angle of the castor axle by altering the position
of the castor/rear wheel. This should always be approx. 90°.
ADJUSTING THE CASTOR AXLE ANGLE:
Release the screws (1), pull the castor adaptor outwards, set a 90°
angle and then re-tighten the screws (Fig. 22-24).

90°
CAUTION!
The castor axle angle must be set the same on both sides (check by
marking).
HORIZONTAL AXLE POSITION
The axle plate can be adjusted
forwards to give greater
manoeuvrability or to the rear to give
greater stability (Fig. 22).
The larger the wheelbase, the greater
the security against your wheelchair
tipping over.
0° / 3° CAMBER:
By rotating the axle adapter by 180° the camber can be set to 3° or
0°.
NOTE:
When making this adjustment, the wheelbase must also be
re-adjusted afterwards.
CAUTION!
Wheel locks must be adjusted to suit the new position!
Options - Backrest
Height-adjustable backrest
The backrest height can be
adjusted from 35 - 50 cm
(depending on the backrest
position). Release the bolts
(1)+(2), and push the backrest
tube to the desired position.
Tighten up the bolts again
(Fig. 25).
