benefits of a proper back support and additional comfort for

sitting tolerance. In addition, it is light-weight, durable and

center of gravity of the wheelchair and may cause the
wheelchair to tip backwards potentially resulting in injury.
• Always assess for the potential need for anti-tippers
or amputee axle adapter brackets to be added to the
wheelchair to help increase stability.
