4.11 Adjusting the Center of Gravity
There are three positions of center of gravity including: front, middle, and rear
4.11.1 Release the rear wheel. (See Figure 4.21)
4.11.2 Use the tool to loosen the bolt on the plate (See Figure 4.22)
4.11.3 Select the position that suits your needs. (See Figure 4.23)
4.11.4 Insert the rear wheel axle housing into the selected position and tighten it.
Make sure the nut is fully tightened. (See Figure 4.24)
● For your safety, when you use the wheelchair for the first few times, KARMA
strongly recommends you to use the rear position which provides the
maximum axle distance. The setting will help you to avoid potential dangers
until you are fully comfortable with your wheelchair. Once you are
comfortable with the setting, you can shorten the distance between the
front and rear wheels according to your demand.
4.12 Adjusting the Seat Height:
There are four levels adjustments.
4.12.1 Release the rear wheel. (See Figure 4.25)
4.12.2 Use the tool to loosen the screw on the plate. (See Figure 4.26)
4.12.3 Adjust upward or downward to your desired height. (See Figure 4.27)
4.12.4 Re-tighten the screw to complete the seat height adjustment.
4.12.5 The front caster position must correspond to the rear wheel height. Please
refer to 5.5 for further adjustment. (See Figure 4.28)
