Stability
The seat depth, seat dump, back angle, seating system, size/position of the rear wheels,
size/position of the front casters, as well as the user condition directly relate to the
stability of the wheelchair. Any change to one (1) or any combination of the nine (9) may
cause the wheelchair to decrease in stability. These adjustments MUST be performed by
a qualified technician.
To maintain maximum stability, position the rear wheels in the most rearward position
in the axle mounting plate. Moving the rear wheels to any of the other mounting
positions causes the wheelchair to decrease in stability.
Always ensure stability before moving the rear wheels forward. Test wheelchair before it
is occupied by the enduser to ensure safety.
NOTE: When changes to the left
hand column occur, follow across
the chart and refer to the X
procedure to maintain the proper
stability, safety and handling of the
wheelchair.
