5 Adjustments

The EJ777-1 Transport Chair offers several adjustments to make it easier and more comfortable to operate. Section 7, MAINTENANCE, offers preventive maintenance suggestions for keeping your transport chair in excellent condition; ensure that all components are in excellent condition before adjusting. The following are recom- mended methods; after a few adjustments, you may develop your own. Always con- sult your Graham-Field Health Products dealer for assistance.

The person performing adjustments on the transport chair has the responsibility of making certain that the user and attendant can safely operate the transport chair with the adjustments selected. This person must evaluate the user's ability, weight, physical condition, the environment in which the transport chair will be used, and the terrain over which the transport chair will travel.

All adjustments and their page locations are referenced in the index at the end of this manual. Specific tools needed to perform each adjustment are identified in ad- justment directions. Most of the following adjustments can be performed with the wrench included with your EJ777-1 transport chair. The only other tool necessary to perform all adjustments in this section is one M6 hex key.

Rear wheel & caster

We recommend that you do not replace or adjust rear wheel or caster components yourself, since special tools and training are required. Please contact your Graham- Field Health Products dealer when your rear wheels or casters need adjustment.

Cross brace

Tighten cross braces

Tools required: included wrench, M6 hex key

Check the cross braces to ensure that the bolts and nuts that fasten the cross braces in the center of the transport chair are secure (cross braces should be loose enough to fold easily, yet snug enough to take up excess play). Use the included wrench and an M6 hex key to tighten the cross braces.
