Adjusting the suspension / immobilisation mechanism of the anti-
tippers
The Invacare Zephyr can be equipped with three different types of springs. The hardness of the
springs should be selected according to the weight of the user. If springs are chosen, which are too
hard, then driving comfort wil be lost; with springs that are too soft, the powerchair will tend to
wobble.
Types of spring
1050 (soft)
1150 (medium)
1250 (hard)
8.6.1
Adjusting the suspension
Danger of injuries, in case the suspension is adjusted without the immobilisation
mechanism of the front anti-tippers being checked and, if necessary, re-adjusted!
• Whenever the hardness of the suspension (springs) is adjusted, the immobilisation
mechanism of the anti-tippers must without fail be checked for correct width of the gap
between the activation bolt and the small metal protrusion of the immobilisation mechanism
(see chapter "Adjusting the Immobilisation mechanism of the anti-tippers" on page 78)!
If necessary, adjust the width of the gap!
