6.15 Push handle
Fold-Down Push Handles (Fig.6.41)
If the push handles are not in use, they can be folded
down by depressing the button, (1). When they are
needed again, simply flip them back up until they click into
place.
6.16 Anti-tip tubes
Anti-Tip Tubes (Fig.6.42)
The anti-tip tubes (1) provide additional safety for
inexperienced users when they are still learning how to
operate their wheelchairs. Anti-tip tubes (1) prevent a
wheelchair from tipping over backwards.
You can swing the anti-tip tube underneath the chair by
pushing it downwards and then rotate it clockwise (when
mounted on the right) or counter-clockwise (when
mounted on the left).
There should be a gap of 30 to 50mm to the floor. To go
up or down a step (e.g. kerb) the anti-tip tubes must be
swung forwards, to prevent them from touching the
ground.
WARNING!
Incorrect setup of the anti-tips will increase the risk of a
rearwards tip.
6.17 Crutch holder
Crutch Holder (Fig.6.43)
This device permits crutches to be transported directly on
the wheelchair. It has a Velcro loop to fasten crutches or
other aids.
CAUTION!
Never try to use / remove the crutches or other aids while
moving.
