Hand-Bike Axle Adjustment
Hand-Bike-Axle
It is necessary to adjust the hand-bike axle to bias the
centre of gravity rearwards. This allows safe use of a
hand-bike accessory, (Fig.4.10.1).
DANGER!
Using a hand-bike without the hand-bike axle makes the
wheelchair unstable and can lead to serious injury of the
user and other people.

Adjusting The Footrest
•
•
Releasing the screw (1) will allow you to adjust the
footrest to correspond to the length of your lower leg and
re-attach the footrest. The angle of the footrest may be
individually adjusted by loosening screws (2). The side
protection (3) on the footrest prevents the feet slipping off
accidentally. Make sure that after any adjustment work, all
screws are tightened correctly (see the page on torque)
(Fig. 4.11 - 4.12).
