6.3.7 Anti-tipper / tip-assist

WARNING
Anti-tipper not activated
Risk of falling, tipping to the rear
► Ensure that an installed anti-tipper is activated before travelling over obstacles and on inclines.
► The anti-tipper must engage audibly before use. Proper engagement must be checked by the user or an
accompanying person.
► The use of an anti-tipper is urgently recommended for persons with legs amputated above the knee.
WARNING
Incorrectly adjusted anti-tipper
Risk of falling as a result of incorrectly adjusted anti-tipper.
► The anti-tipper may only be adjusted by qualified personnel.
The anti-tipper prevents the wheelchair from tipping backwards when overcoming obstacles and going uphill. It is
set for a maximum ground clearance of 5 cm and so that the anti-tippers, as a minimum, project fully beyond the
largest diameter of the rear wheels.
The tip-assist makes overcoming obstacles easier for the attendant.
