Castor, Castor adapter, Castor fork
From time to time the wheelchair may veer slightly to the right or left or the
castors may flutter.
This may be caused by the following:
• Forward and/or reverse wheel motion has not been set properly.
• The castor angle has not been adjusted properly.
• Castor and/or rear wheel air pressure is incorrect; wheels do not turn smoothly.
The optimum adjustment of the castors is required so that the wheelchair runs in
a straight line.
Castors should always be adjusted by an authorised dealer. The castor plates
must be readjusted, and the wheel locks must be checked any time the rear
wheel position has been altered.
Adjusting the castor
To ensure that both forks are set parallel, simply count the teeth visible on both
sides. After setting the castor fork, the teeth will guarantee a secure position,
allowing an adjustment of 16° in 2° increments. Use the flat side to check for a
right-angled position to the ground.
The patented design allows the castor fork to be turned, so that it can be reset at
right-angles to the ground when the seat angle is changed (Fig. 5.10 + 5.11).
Setting the directional stability
Release the Allen screws (1) on the underside of the fork. You can then undo the
screw (2). You can now turn the black socket (3) left or right.
Left – chair pulls to the left
Right – chair pulls to the right
Then tighten up the screw (2) again. Please set a 90° angle from the fork to the
floor.
Now tighten up the screw (1) again. (Fig. 4.16).
CAUTION!
The screws/bolts used on this wheelchair have thread locking fluid applied at
the factory. After that they should be replaced or alternatively re-secured with
threadlock to medium tightness.
Castor
Adjusting the seat height
To adjust the rear seat height release and remove the Allen screw (1) (one on
each side), that fixes the clamp, (2) to the axle plate. Adjust the two camber
tube clamps (2) to the required height and replace the two Allen screws. Before
tightening the screws, please follow the instructions for setting the toe-in/toe-out
to zero.
Tighten the screws to 10 Nm. (Fig. 5.13)
CAUTION!
• An adjustment to the castor angle may be necessary when adjusting the rear
seat height.
• The screws/bolts used on this wheelchair have thread locking fluid applied at
the factory. After that they should be replaced or alternatively re-secured with
threadlock to medium tightness.
