V. SET UP & USE OF YOUR WHEELCHAIR
W. Rear Wheels
2. Adjusting Axles
a. To adjust the axle you will need a 19mm wrench to turn the outside axle nuts.
b. You will also need a 11mm wrench to hold the ball bearings on the opposite end of the axle
and prevent the axle from turning.
c. When the wheel is installed, if the axle does not lock, loosen the axle nut until it locks and
axle can move in and out slightly when locked. If the axle locks, but moves in and out
slightly, proceed to next step.
d. Turn the axle nut counterclockwise until it is tight, then turn the axle nut clockwise 1/3 turn
at a time. Check to see if it is properly adjusted after each 1/3 turn. When properly adjusted
there should be no perceptible movement of the axle in and out in the sleeve, but the axle
release button should be easy to push in.
3. Removing Wheels
a. Hold the wheel close to the hub and push in the button on the outside end of the axle.
b. While still holding the button, pull the wheel and axle out of the axle sleeve.
DANGER: Make sure the push button is completely extended and the locking balls on the inside
of the chair are fully engaged before operating the wheelchair. Failure to do so may result in the
wheel falling off and may cause serious injury or death.
Review and understand Section W. Rear Wheel Installation and Removal before attempting
an axle adjustment!
