ANTI-TIP DEVICES

The anti-tip devices also act as step tubes. They are
height-adjustable and can easily be set in six different
positions.
Adjust the anti-tip devices by pressing the spring-
loaded buttons (A) and then raising or lowering the
anti-tip devices until you obtain the required posi-
tion.

BRAKE

1. This type of brake is to be used when the wheel-
chair is stationary and is not intended to be used
for reducing the speed.
To apply the brake of the wheelchair, move the
lever backwards. To release the brake, move the
lever forwards.
2. To obtain the correct braking effect, the brake
pin (B) is to press into the tyre when you apply
the brake. The brake may therefore need to be
adjusted. Loosen the screw (A) and move the
brake to the required position. Retighten the
screw. There is to be a distance of 15 mm between
pin (B) and tyre (C).
Ensure that both anti-tip devices are adjusted
to the same position and that the spring-
loaded buttons pop back into place in their
new position.
Take care not to trap your fingers between the
brake pin and tyre.
Incorrect setting or incorrect use of the brake
reduces the brake effect.
