Installing Anti-Tippers - Invacare 1036900 Assembly, Installation And Operating Instructions

INSTALLATION WARNINGS (CONTINUED)
Anti-tippers MUST be fully engaged. Ensure that the locking pin of the anti-tipper
fully protrudes out of the hole on the wheelchair frame. Ensure both anti-tippers are
adjusted to the same height.
Anti-tippers MUST be used at all times. When outdoors on wet, soft ground or on
gravel surfaces, anti-tippers may not provide the same level of protection against
tipover. Extra caution must be observed when traversing such surfaces.
Ensure the anti-tipper wheels are pointing towards the ground/floor BEFORE
operating the wheelchair.
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure that all
attaching component parts are secure.

Installing Anti-Tippers

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 1.
1. Remove the plug button or end cap from end of lower frame tube.
2. Visually inspect the top and bottom of lower frame tube for locking hole(s).
NOTE: Depending on your wheelchair frame style, one (1) of the following conditions will exist:
• One locking hole located on top of the lower frame tube.
• One locking hole located on the bottom of the lower frame tube.
• Locking holes located on both the top and the bottom of the lower frame tube.
3. If there are no hole locations for the anti‐tippers to lock into position, drill a 9/32‐inch
diameter hole through one wall at the bottom of the lower frame tube. This hole
should be placed 15/16‐inch from the back edge of the lower frame tube.
4. Place the anti‐rattle over the end of the lower frame tube (if applicable).
5. Depress the release buttons and insert the anti‐tippers into the wheelchair frame
tubing with the anti‐tipper wheels pointing toward the ground/floor.
6. Ensure that the release button of the anti‐tipper fully protrudes out of the locking
hole(s) in the lower wheelchair frame tubing.
7. Repeat STEPS 1‐6 for the opposite anti‐tipper.
NOTE: A 1½ to 2‐inch clearance between the bottom of the anti‐tipper wheels and the ground/floor
MUST be maintained at all times.
