3.6.3 Installing and adjusting the anti-tipper

WARNING
Incorrect installation of the anti-tipper/missing anti-tipper
Tipping over, falling of the user due to failure to observe the installation instructions and because of incorrect
adjustment
► Depending upon the settings of the chassis, the centre of gravity, the back angle and the experience of the
user, the use of an anti-tipper may be necessary.
► For a small wheelbase and a backrest that is tilted far back, an anti-tipper may need to be installed on both
sides, depending upon the user's experience.
► Verify that the anti-tipper has been installed and adjusted properly. Find the appropriate position with the
assistance of a helper.
CAUTION
Anti-tipper not intended
Tipping over of the user due to missing safety devices
► On the Avantgarde CLT with fixed welded fitting, installation of an anti-tipper is not intended.
► Therefore examine the user intensively for suitability (adequate physiological capabilities) before supplying the
user with this version. This wheelchair version is intended only for experienced users with sporting ambitions
who, thanks to their physiological capabilities, are able to handle the wheelchair proficiently.

3.6.3.1 Installing the anti-tipper

INFORMATION
Note that, for a seat inclination ≥ 3 cm, the 481A64=SV172 conversion set must also be installed with the combin­
ation of the anti-tipper, right, and the crutch holder, right. This conversion is necessary to stop the anti-tipper from
striking against the frame when deactivated.
The anti-tipper can be installed at 5 positions on the vertical accessory mount (see fig. 22, item 1).
1) Push the anti-tipper tube from below into the vertical accessory mount.
