Caster Fork Adjustment
Interchanging casters can easily be done with
dual hole caster forks. Currently, 3”, 5” , 6”
and 7” casters are available for use. A smaller
fork is used with the 3” caster only. To adjust,
loosen the bolt and remove the caster. Change
the caster and/or position the caster upward
or downward in pre-drilled holes on the caster
fork. Replace the bolt and tighten securely.
Wheel Lock Adjustment
When the rear wheel is repositioned, it is important
that the wheel lock is readjusted also.
Adjustment can be made by loosening the
1/4-20 x 1” button head screws and sliding the
wheel lock assembly along the frame tubing so
that the wheel lock contacts the tire in the locked
position. Continue to adjust until the knurled
grip handle embeds into the tire approximately
1/4” when in the locked position. Tighten the
screw until wheel lock is snug to frame tube.
WARNING WARNING ! !
Wheel locks are not designed to slow the chair down when it is moving. When the
chair is stopped, engaging properly adjusted wheel locks will prevent the rear
wheels from turning.
Adjustments
Adjustable Height Flip Back Armrest

to the desired location. Flip the release
lever back to the vertical position.
