Anti-Tip Wheel Adjustment
The anti-tip wheels are designed to give your power chair increased stability on rough surfaces. The anti-tip wheels are
preset for smooth surfaces or indoor use only. If you plan on using your power chair on rough surfaces, it may be
necessary to adjust the anti-tip wheels to better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels may need adjustment if either of the
following occur:
!
When coming to a stop, your power chair tips forward excessively.
!
The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.
NOTE: Each drive tire must have at least 35 psi (2.4 bar) of air pressure in order for the anti-tip wheels to be
properly adjusted.
To adjust the anti-tips:
1. Make sure the power chair is in drive mode.
2. Loosen the nut and bolt that fasten the anti-tip spring to the anti-tip arm. See figure 31.
3. Remove the anti-tip adjustment bolt.
4. Raise or lower the anti-tip wheel in 1/4-in. increments.
5. Replace the hardware into the appropriate hole and tighten.
WARNING! Consult your authorized Pride Provider before attempting to change the anti-tip height!
Changing the anti-tip wheel height affects handling under deceleration!
WARNING! The higher you raise the anti-tip wheels, the more tendency your power chair has to tilt forward
when coming to a stop. You can compensate for this by making a small adjustment to the pre-programmed
deceleration setting in the controller or by moving the seat assembly farther to the rear of your power chair.
Failure to do so may result in personal injury.
PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti-tip wheels.
