Adjusting The Center Of Gravity (Tx) - Ti Lite aero x Owner's Manual

CHAPTER 8: AXLE PLATES AND CAMBER PLUGS (CENTER OF GRAVITY;
I
WARNING
Do not extend the camber plug more than 1" out of the camber plug
clamp. If more than 1" of the camber plug is outside of the camber mount
clamp, the camber plug could disengage from the camber mount clamp
while you are using the chair. If you ignore this Warning, you may fall,
tip over or lose control of the wheelchair and seriously injure yourself or
others or damage the wheelchair.
1. Remove the rear wheels.
2. Loosen, but do not remove, the two Allen Screws that secure the
camber plug to each camber plug clamp. See Figure 47. If you are
adjusting the rear wheel spacing, only loosen the screws enough to
permit the camber plug to slide in and out of the camber plug clamp
and skip to Step 5 below.
3. Remove the camber plug from the camber plug clamp.
4. Install the new camber plug in the camber plug clamp.
5. The amount of the camber plug that extends outside of the camber
plug clamp affects the rear wheel spacing. The less of the camber
plug that extends outside the camber plug clamp, the narrower the
rear wheel spacing. The more of the camber plug that extends
outside the camber plug clamp, the wider the rear wheel spacing.
However, the distance from the camber plug clamp to the end of the
camber plug should never exceed 1". Make sure the distance from
the outside edge of the camber clamp to the end of the camber plug
is identical on each side of the chair. Note: If your desired rear wheel
width would require that more than 1" of the camber plug extends
beyond the camber plug clamp, consider repositioning the camber
plug clamp to the outside of the adjustable axle plate. See Figure 48.
6. Before tightening the four Allen Screws, use a level to make sure that
the notches on the camber plug are perpendicular to the ground.
7. Securely tighten all four Allen Screws.
8. Reinstall the rear wheels.
9. Check the toe-in/toe-out and adjust as needed and square the front
casters as needed.

WARNING
When repositioning the camber clamps on the CG Bracket (as described
below), always leave as many open holes between each pair of Allen
Screws as your desired placement will permit. NEVER use two adjacent
holes to attach the camber clamp to the CG Bracket. If you ignore this
Warning, your camber clamp may fail, causing you to fall, tip over or lose
control of the chair and seriously injure yourself or others or damage the
chair.
Tools Needed:
• 3/16" Allen Wrench
• Ruler
1. Remove the rear wheels.
2. Remove the eight Allen Screws (four on each side of the chair) that
secure the camber clamps to the CG brackets. See Figure 49.
