Options - Anti-Tips
Anti-Tip Tubes
Anti-tip tubes provide additional
safety for inexperienced users when
they are still learning how to operate
their wheelchair. They prevent a
wheelchair from tipping over
backwards, (Fig. 22.0).
By pushing on the release button
(1), the safety wheels can be set
upwards or removed. There must
always be a gap of between 30mm and 50mm between the tube and
the ground.
You must swing the safety wheels upwards when going up and down
large obstacles (such as a kerb) to prevent them from touching the
ground. Then rotate the safety wheels back down to the normal
position.
WARNING!
Incorrect setup of the anti-tips will increase the risk of a rearwards tip.
