Push rim
The push rim attached to the driving wheels can be fitted a little further
outwards, so that you can grip it better. Changing the push rim position
increases the risk of your fingers getting trapped or crushed.
First loosen the four screws (see fig. 25) used to attach the push rim
to the driving wheels. Then fasten the push rim in a position that is
further out and tighten the screws again.
4.11. Floating axies
To make the transport of your wheelchair considerably
easier, the wheels are equipped with floating axles as
standard:
•
Press the locking button of the floating axle with your finger and
pull the wheel off
•
When refitting the wheel, simply push the wheel back onto the
mount. At the same time, press in the locking button as wel.
When attaching, make sure that the floating axle is inserted right up
to the stop! After attaching, check that the wheel is securely fixed by
pulling it towards you, without operating the locking button of the
floating axle!
4.12. Abduction wedge (optional)
•
The optionally available abduction wedge (knee separator) can
be adjusted to the seat depth by changing its position in the rail
located underneath the seat.
•
Loosen the plastic screws, put the wedge in the desired position
and re-tighten the screws (Fig. 28).
•
To change the position of the abduction wedge in relation to the
patient, you must loosen the top plastic screw, slide the abduction
28
wedge along the rail and then re-tighten the screw.

4.13. Trunk support pads (optional)
•
The trunk support pads for the Protego wheelchair are optionally
available and their height, width and angles can be adjusted.
•
Loosen both of the hexagon socket screws (SW 6) on the mounting
of the side part (Fig. 29).
•
Position the trunk support pads at the desired height and width of
the chest.
•
Re-tighten the hexagon socket screws.
•
To lower the trunk support pads, you must loosen the plastic screw
on the guide rail, move the trunk support pads to the desired
position and then re-tighten the plastic screw (Fig. 30).
•
To fine-tune adjustments of the angle in relation to the chest,
loosen the hexagon socket screw (SW 1).
•
Put the trunk support pad in the correct position and then re-
tighten the screw (Fig. 31).
4.14. Drum brake (optional)
As an option, the Protego can be equipped with a drum brake, which
should only be operated by an attendant person via the brake lever on
the push handles.
To achieve optimum braking efficiency, the braking power is set by
using the adjusting screw (see fig. 33). The braking power is increased
by unscrewing the adjusting screw and reduced by tightening it.
•
Please unscrew the adjusting screw until you notice friction noises
on the wheel when it is turning.
•
Then tighten the adjusting screw until the friction noises disappear.
The wheel then runs freely.
•
After completing the setting, the adjusting screw is fixed by
tightening the locknut.
