DRIVE WHEEL REMOVAL

To remove the rear drive wheels for puncture repairs carefully follow these instructions.

Release the four bolts shown as A in the diagram. Check the tyres for wear, if excessive, replacement is recommended.

The wheel is a split rim. It is important that the bolts securing the rims together are NOT released if the tyre is pneumatic and INFLATED.

Upon reassembly tighten the fixing bolts securely. The wheel is alloy, do not over-tighten as this may damage the wheel rim.

If the tyre is being inflated with the wheel on the chair, ensure the wheel is off the ground during inflation. Inflate the tyre slowly to recommended pressure, ensuring an even fit around the rim.

DRIVE WHEEL-LOCKS -

(MANUAL BRAKES)

When transferring to and from the chair ensure the wheel locks are firmly ON and the motor drive is in the engaged position.

When transporting the complete chair in a vehicle, it is important that motor drive is engaged and the wheel locks are firmly ON. This will aid the use of the chair restraints and protect the motor/gearbox from possible damage.
