F. TO MOUNT & REMOVE REAR WHEELS

procedures easier.

G. WHEEL LOCKS
Wheel locks are installed at Sunrise and should be adjusted by your qualified service person. Inspect wheel locks
weekly per the maintenance chart. Do not use your chair UNLESS you are sure both wheel-locks can fully
engage. A wheel-lock that is not correctly adjusted may allow your chair to roll, or turn unexpectedly. Wheel-
locks must be adjusted after making sure the tires have the correct air pressure. When fully engaged, the arm
should be imbedded into the tire at least 1/8" to be effective.
If you find the wheel locks have slipped or are not working correctly contact your service provider for proper
adjustment.
