Swiveling the Footrests
To swivel the footrests, hold the top of the footrest and pull it gently upwards in order to release it from its locked position. Then swivel the footrest forward or backward until it is in the desired locked positions. Footrests can be locked into place to the rear, side, or front.
|
|
Removing the Footrests
The footrests can be completely removed from the wheelchair by pulling the plastic clip with its retaining pin horizontally out of the tube. The whole of the footrest can then be pulled up and out of the footrest mounting. When refitting the footrests, ensure that the hole for the locking pin in the footrest is aligned with the hole in the frame.

|
Adjusting the Anti-Tip Wheels
If the wheelchair is to go up or down a high step (e.g. a curb), the anti-tip wheels must be swiveled upwards to avoid them catching on the ground. Pull on them to unlock and swivel up/down so it looks like picture 2 above.

|
Adjusting the Position of the Rear Drive Wheels
You have a choice of three horizontally adjacent positions for the axle serving the rear-drive wheels. This makes it possible to adjust the center of gravity and the associated maneuvering characteristics of the wheelchair. The further back the axle mounts are installed, the less likely the wheelchair is to tip over in use. The further forward the axle mounts are installed, the lower the proportion of the total weight that is over the forward casters, making it easier to deliberately tip the wheelchair backward (either by the user or the companion), which in turn makes the chair easier to maneuver.

"We have a STRONGBACK24 for my wife and she is extremely impressed. After using a traditional chair for three weeks, she greatly appreciates the comfort of the strongback. I love how lightweight it is - I can lift it myself to put in the car. -Robert D."
"It was extremely comfortable as soon as I sat in it and throughout the day. I have back problems and I can feel the lumbar support immediately. -Olivia B."
