Adjusting/Replacing Anti-Tipper
WARNING
After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure all attaching hardware is tightened securely. Otherwise injury or
damage may occur.
Anti-tippers MUST be attached at all times. Inasmuch as the anti-tippers are an option on this wheelchair (you may order it with or
without the anti-tippers), Invacare strongly recommends ordering the anti-tippers as an additional safeguard for the wheelchair user.
Anti-tippers MUST be fully engaged. Ensure the release button of the anti-tipper fully protrudes out of the hole in the anti-tipper socket.
Ensure both anti-tippers are adjusted to the same height.
When anti-tippers are used, anti-tippers MUST be adjusted to maintain a 1-1/2 to 2-inch (3.81 to 5.08 cm) clearance between the bottom
of the anti-tipper wheels and the ground/ floor. This spacing should always be checked whenever adjustments/changes are made to the
wheelchair. Failure to maintain proper spacing may result in the chair tipping over backward causing serious injury or property damage.
Measurements for anti-tippers are approximate and are taken using the top adjustment hole on the anti-tipper.
Adjusting Anti-Tipper
1.
Press in the release button that secures the anti-tipper wheels to the anti-tipper bar.
2.
Adjust the height of the anti-tipper wheels to between 1-1/2 and 2-inches (3.81 to 5.08 cm) of the ground/floor.
3.
Repeat STEPS 1-2 for the opposite anti-tipper.
