Support wheels may be fitted in three different
positions; low, medium and high. These fitting
positions are marked L, M and H.

With the support wheels fitted in the lower position,
low, the wheelchair inclines less before the support
wheels meet the ground, but the accessibility of
the wheelchair is reduced somewhat.

With the support wheels fitted in the medium
position, the wheelchair inclines slightly more
before the support wheels meet the ground, but
the accessibility of the wheelchair is increased
somewhat.

The support wheels are fitted as standard in the
high position. This position produces the best
accessibility, but it also means that the wheelchair
may incline more before the support wheels meet
the ground, which the user may find unpleasant.
