Precautions for the flexible use of casters
Caster is a general term, including movable casters and fixed casters. Fixed casters have no rotating structure and cannot be rotated horizontally but only vertically. These two kinds of casters are generally used in combination. For example, the structure of the trolley is two fixed wheels in the front, and two movable universal wheels in the back near the push armrest.
So how to use casters to achieve the effect of flexible operation?
The use of casters should pay attention to the following points:
1. The casters must be installed in the position specified by the manufacturer.
2. The installed caster bracket must have sufficient strength and meet the load-bearing capacity during use.
3. The function of the caster cannot be changed, and it is not affected by the installation device.
4. The rotation axis must always be vertical.
5. The fixed casters must be in a straight line with their axles.
6. If only swivel casters are used, they must be consistent.
7. If fixed casters are used in conjunction with swivel casters, all casters must be compatible with each other and must be recommended by the manufacturer.
