A. SET-UP
Setting the wheelchair on a table or flat surface, such as a workbench or table, helps make these pro-
cedures easier.
Torque Settings: A torque setting is the optimum tightening which should be made on a particular
fastener. A torque wrench which measures in./lbs. should be used when tightening fasteners on
Quickie wheelchairs. Unless otherwise noted, use a torque setting of 60 in./lbs. when setting up this
wheelchair.
B. TO MOUNT & REMOVE REAR WHEELS
Do not use this chair UNLESS you are sure both quick-release axles are locked.
An unlocked axle may come off during use and cause a fall.
NOTE: Axle is not locked until the quick-release button pops out fully. (Fig. A)
1. To Install Wheel
a. Depress quick-release button (1) fully. This will release tension on ball bearings at other end.
b. Insert axle through hub of rear wheel.
c. Keep pressure on button (1) as you slide axle (2) into axle sleeve (3).
d. Release button to lock axle in sleeve. Adjust axle if it does not lock. (See Section C)
e. Repeat steps on other side.
2. To Remove Wheel
a. Depress quick-release button (1) fully.
b. Remove wheel by sliding axle out of axle sleeve.

C. AXLE ADJUSTMENT
1. To adjust the axle you will need a 3/4" wrench to turn the outside axle nuts.
2. You will also need a 1/2" wrench to lodge the ball bearings, on the opposite end of the axle,
and prevent the axle from turning.
3. Turn the outside axle nut counterclockwise to tighten.
4. There should only be zero to ten thousandths of an inch (.010) of play.
D. BACKREST (FIXED OR FOLDING)
1. Backrest Installation
To install backrest, remove the nut, plastic saddle and bolt from the backrest tube. Place the backrest
in the upright position and reinstall in the lower plate hole (A). Backrest bolts should be tightened to
65 in-lbs. (7.3 Nm). Avoid over-tightening as you may crush the backrest tubing.
2. Back Angle Adjustment
Back angle adjustment is standard on all Quickie wheelchairs.
a. Loosen bolt and nut on both sides of wheelchair.
b. Turn the eccentric washer (B) on the backrest hinge plate to increase or decrease the back
angle.

The backrest comes standard with a 3" height adjustment.

2. You will see the backrest tube (C) which telescopes into the back frame and is secured by a
pushbutton (D) on the side of the backrest.
3. There are several holes, 1" apart in the back frame (E), from which you may choose to set the
back height.
4. Depress the pushbutton and move the backrest tube to the desired hole location.
5. Assure that the pushbutton fully engages into the back frame.
