and injury.

accidentally. Make sure that after any adjustment work, all
screws are tightened correctly (see the page on torque)

Castors

Castor, Castor Adapter, Castor Fork
From time to time the wheelchair may veer slightly to the
right or left, or the castors may flutter. This may be caused
by the following:
• The forward or reverse wheel motion has not been set
properly.
• The castor angle has not been adjusted properly.
• Castor and/or rear wheel air pressure is incorrect;
wheels do not turn smoothly.
The optimum adjustment of the castors is required for the
wheelchair to run in a straight line.
Castors should always be adjusted by an authorized
dealer. The castor plates must be re-adjusted, and the
wheel locks must be checked any time the rear wheel
position has been altered.
