7.5. Wheelbase

Caution, risk of tipping! If you move the driving

wheel forwards or the backrest backwards, this

significantly increases the risk of tipping. Anti-tip

rollers or an extended wheelbase are then neces-

sary. Check the settings first with a helper. Only

use settings that you feel safe with.

Extending the wheelbase increases the stability and equi-

librium of the wheelchair. On the other hand, if the wheel-

base is reduced, this then improves manoeuvrability. A

reduction of the wheelbase is only advisable for practised

drivers. To adjust the wheelbase, loosen the wheel suspen-

sion which is fixed with two screws and then attach it

again the other way round. Make sure that all screws are

firmly tightened.

When the wheelbase is changed, it is absolutely

essential to adjust the knee lever brake after-

wards!
