WARNING!
Risk of overturning
The longitudinal position of the rear wheels axis o f
the wheelchair compared to the backrest p osition
can affect its stability.
— A forwards position makes the wheelchair l ess
stable and increase the risk of tipping
backwards, but improves its maneuverability b y
a better grip position of the handrim and a
short turning radius.
— Conversely, by moving the rear wheels axis
backwards, the wheelchair is more stable a nd
tilts less easily, but its maneuverability i s
reduced.
— Depending on the user's abilities and its
particular safety limits, the decrease in s tability
can be compensated for by installing a n anti-
tipper device.
