Options – Footrests
Footrests and Latch
(7.23)
Install your footrest by inserting it
with the footplate(s) pointing
toward the outside. Then rotate it
toward the inside until it locks into
place (1). To remove the footrest,
depress the latch (2), swing the
footrest toward the outside and
remove it. Make sure that the foot-
rest is properly locked into place.
CAUTION:
The footrests should not be
used to lift or to carry the wheelchair with an
occupant.
Little effort is needed to adjust the footrest by
means of an eccentric hex nut. Adjustments can be
changed as follows: Remove screw. Adjust the
eccentric hex nut. Check if the locking mechanism
engages and disengages properly. To make fast
again, tighten the screw firmly while using a wrench
to hold the eccentric hex nut securely (see the page
on torque).
Flip-up footrest (standard or
with length adjustment):
(7.24)
To elevate:
Pull the footrest upwards and
adjust it to the desired height. You
will hear the footrest click into pla-
ce.
To lower:
Lift your lower leg and press the
release lever to unlock the footrest.
You may now lower the footrest.
As soon as you let go of the lever,
the footrest will click back into place.
CAUTION:
Keep hands clear of the adjustment mechanism
between the frame and the movable parts of the
footrest while elevating or lowering the footrest.
CAUTION:
Footrests are not to be used for lifting or carry-
ing the wheelchair with an occupant.

Options – Casters
Casters, Caster Plates, Forks
(7.40)
The wheelchair may veer slightly to
the right or left, or the casters may
wobble. This may be caused by
the following:
• Forward and/or reverse wheel
motion has not been set pro-
perly.
• The camber has not been adju-
sted properly.
• Caster and/or rear wheel air
pressure is incorrect; wheels do
not turn smoothly.
The wheelchair will not move in a straight line if the
casters have not been properly adjusted. Casters
should always be adjusted by an authorized dealer.
The caster plates must be readjusted, and the
wheel locks must be checked any time the rear
wheel position has been altered.

To ensure the forks are both set at the same
angle, simply count the exposed splines on
each side.
When the correct caster angle is found, the
splines form a tight fit and provide 16° of
adjustment in 2° increments.
Use this flat edge to square the fork.
The patented design allows the caster fork to
rotate so it can remain square to the ground
when the frame angle is changed.
