the caster angle so that the caster forks remain at a 90°
angle to the ground based on the side of the caster fork.
See figure 35. There are an infinite number of possible
caster angle.
WARNING! Contact your Quantum
Rehab Provider before adjusting the
caster angle.

aligning the caster forks to ensure 90° alignment to
the ground.

assembly to the frame.
2. Turn the screw to adjust the caster wheel to the
desired angle.
3. Tighten the nut.
NOTE: Make sure that both casters are adjusted to
the same angle.
