Tip-Assist - Otto Bock Start B2 Instructions For Use Manual

Use
The anti-tipper is set for a maximum ground clearance of 50 mm and so that the anti-tipper rollers, as a minimum,
project fully beyond the largest diameter of the drive wheels.
A mounted anti-tipper must always be active.
When overcoming obstacles (such as steps and curbs that are not lowered) upwards, the anti-tipper rollers con­
tact the ground.
When overcoming obstacles (such as steps and curbs that are not lowered) downwards, the anti-tipper has to be
deactivated by the user or attendant to avoid damaging the anti-tipper.
