P. REAR WHEEL SPACING 33 34

Rear wheel spacing is measured as the gap between the top of the rear wheels and the backcanes, and is shown as dimension X 33 . Available factory range: .75" to 1.75". The widest setting is typically required to provide adequate tire clearance when using the height adjustable armrest option.

NOTE– When setting the rear wheel spacing only make adjustments to one side of the chair at a time. Loosening both sides will undo the toe setting.

To adjust the rear wheel spacing, the camber inserts (E) telescope in and out of the axle bracket (F). On the left side of the chair, loosen screws (G). Slide the camber insert in or out to establish the required wheel spacing. Tighten screw to 144 in-lbs. (16.3 Nm). Repeat on the right side of the chair, matching the wheel spacing set on the left side. Ensure toe in/out maintains proper setting (see Section O-4: Setting Toe-in Toe-out to Zero).

Rear Wheel Axle Adjustment

Tight axle sleeves should be maintained for proper performance of the wheelchair.

a.To adjust the axle you will need a 3/4" wrench to turn the outside axle nuts.

b.You will also need a 1/2" wrench to lodge the ball bearings, on the opposite end of the axle, and prevent the axle from turning.

c.Turn the outside axle nut counterclockwise to tighten.

d.There should only be zero to ten thousandths of an inch (.010") of play (see Section B: Rear Wheel Axle Nut Adjustment).

Q. WHEEL LOCKS

d.Slide clamp toward the rear wheel until the wheel lock is embedded into the tire to prevent wheel movement, when in the locked position.

e.Tighten screws to 144 in-lbs. (16.3 Nm).
