IV. COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
Depth Adjustment
Your Litestream XF may be equipped with a depth-
adjustable side frame. The depth adjustment range is 4 in.
(10.16 cm) in 1-in (2.54-cm) increments
.
NOTE: The center of gravity of your wheelchair was
factory set to a position that meets the needs of the
demographic majority of users. It is the responsibility
of your Quantum Rehab Provider to evaluate the
wheelchair and make any adjustments to suit your
specific requirements to prevent the wheelchair from
tipping forward, rearward, or to the side.
WARNING! Center of gravity
adjustment may be necessary for
optimal performance and stability. Do
not perform these adjustments
yourself. Wheelchair depth adjustment
and center of gravity adjustment
should only be performed by your
Quantum Rehab Provider or a qualified
technician.
To adjust the depth of the Litestream XF:
1. Remove the depth adjustment screws and angle
adjustment screws that attach the back cane to the
side frame on both sides of the wheelchair. See
figure 18.
2. Position the back canes so that the desired depth is
achieved.
3. Reinstall the depth adjustment screws and angle
adjustment screws to secure the back canes to the
side frame on both sides of the wheelchair.
Anti-tip Wheel Adjustment
If your wheelchair is equipped with a depth-adjustable
side frame, it will also be equipped with anti-tip
wheels. Anti-tip wheels are an integral and important
safety feature of your wheelchair. They are factory set
to between 0.75-2 in. (2-5 cm), but may require adjust-
ment to accommodate depth adjustment and center of
gravity.
PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti-
tip wheels or modify the wheelchair in
any way that is not authorized by Pride.
WARNING! The anti-tip wheels should
only be adjusted by a Quantum Rehab
Provider or a qualified technician.
