Leckey Tour Mobility Base, Manual

Page: 16 / 32

9.1 Anti-tippers/Tip assist
The anti-tippers prevent the mobility base
from tipping too far backwards. Please refer
to Fig 11a and 11b.
To fit the anti-tipper for the first time, press
down the popper (A) and slide into the chassis
tube at the rear of the mobility base.
The effectiveness of the anti-tipper is
achieved by adjusting its position. Press the
popper (A) then slide the anti-tipper to the
desired position, ensuring the popper has
engaged in one of the locking holes (B).
The further out the anti-tipper, the more
effective it is.
In order to make tipping the mobility base
easier to clear an obstacle e.g. curbs, tipping
assistance can be achieved by simply
stepping onto the anti-tipper tubes while
pulling back on the handle bar.
Note - To avoid an accident risk, it may be
necessary to adjust the anti-tipper inwards to
clear an obstacle. In some circumstances it
may be necessary to remove the anti-tipper
completely. This is done by pressing in the
popper (A) and sliding the anti-tipper out
completely. Once the obstacle has
been negotiated, re-insert the anti-tipper
ensuring the popper has engaged in one of
the locking holes.
In the event anti-tippers are fitted or
removed, please inform the occupant if
they do not require an attendant.
