S. REAR AXLE PLATE SUSPENSION
The performance of your suspension system is determined by the compression elastomers
(C). There are several different elastomers available from Quickie which are selected based
on the user's weight.
To change out elastomers, remove the 2 screws (D) (1 per side). Rotate swingarms (E)
downward and the compression elastomer (C) can be freely removed from its top and bot-
tom engagement sockets.
Reverse the order to install new bushings, making sure the compression elastomers are
securely engaged into the top and bottom sockets.
