13. Settings, readjustments
The centre of gravity/balance setting is adjusted by
changing the position of the rear wheels.
- Move hubs/rear wheels forwards or backwards.
Also check the brakes, see section “Brake, adjustment”.

When the rear wheel position is moved forwards, the wheelchair
becomes easier to drive and swivel, but the tendency to tilt
backwards increases.
See section “Changing the rear wheel position”.
The centre of gravity also changes when changing seat angle
and/or back angle.
Use of anti-tip guards is recommended.
When assembling rear wheels, always make sure that the
quick-release button in the hub springs out properly. Test by
pulling the wheel.
Toe-in, toe-out
Due to the design there is no need for a toe-in correction. Even when
the rear wheel position is adjusted in height or centre of balance the
rear wheel attachment makes sure that the adjustment of the toe-in
is always correct.
The camber angle can be changed by replacing the washers
between the hub sleeve and the nut (see also section “Changing
the rear wheel position”).
Check that the rear wheel hub shaft is set correctly. The button
in the hub should spring out to its original position. Test by
pulling the wheel.
