Ensure rear wheel quick-release axles are locked securely in place. This can
be checked by raising the rear wheels off the ground and pulling gently
outward at the wheel hub. When locked in place the locking balls should be
visible at the inner end of the axle sleeve.

Make sure there is not too much weight applied to the castors, otherwise
adjust the centre of gravity.
Ensure user clothing is not interfering with movement of the rear wheels.
Ensure both brakes are disengaged.
Wheelchair does not
turn smoothly
Make sure the front fork bolts are not over tightened which can restrict front
castor wheel rotation.
Remove any hair or dirt from castor axles.
Ensure both brakes are disengaged.
Brakes are not
working properly
Check distance between tyres and brake foot is sufficient such that the
requisite amount of force can be applied to the tyre surface to stop it moving
when the brake is in the engaged position.

or folded easily
Clean the crossbar under the seat and apply some grease.
