X. Wheel Locks
WARNING: Underinflated or worn tires may cause your wheel locks to not function
properly. Failure of the wheel locks to hold your chair could cause a loss of control or fall
resulting in serious injury or death.
• Wheel locks are not to be used as brakes to slow or stop your wheelchair. Using a
wheel lock as a brake could cause loss of control or a fall resulting in serious injury
or death.
Wheel Lock Operation
1. Wheel lock operation is based on the lock style your chair is equipped with. Engagement of
the wheel lock bar to tire is done by pushing or pulling on the wheel lock handle to fully
engage wheel lock bar to tire (Fig. 39).
2. To disengage wheel lock move in opposite direction.
Adjusting Wheel Locks
NOTE: Always loosen and tighten wheel hardware by alternating between the two bolts
while loosening/tightening a little at a time. This prevents overclamping on one set of
hardware which leads to binding of the fasteners and increased difficulty in removal.
1. Use a 10mm wrench or socket to loosen (do not remove) hex bolt (Fig. 38:A) that is located
on the inside of the chair frame.
2. Slide wheel lock assembly forward or rearward to achieve proper locking.
3. Retighten hex bolt.
