SECTION 11—WHEELS
WARNING
The seat height, seat depth, back angle, seating system, size/position of the rear
wheels, size/position of the front casters, as well as the user condition directly relate
to the stability of the wheelchair. Any change to one or any combination of the nine
may cause the wheelchair to decrease in stability. These adjustments MUST be
performed by a qualified technician.
Mounting rear wheels towards the front of the wheelchair will reduce the stability of
the wheelchair. Try various rear wheel positions to find the safest rear wheel
position appropriate for the users particular needs.
Anti-tippers, if equipped, MUST be repositioned before using the wheelchair.
Wheel locks MUST be adjusted before using the wheelchair.
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure all attaching
hardware is tightened securely - otherwise injury or damage may occur.
