WARNING:  Before sitting in the chair, make sure that the anti-

tips are operating properly.  To do this, place the chair on a level 

surface and engage the anti-tips.  Tip the chair backward until the 

weight of the chair is supported by the anti-tips and rear wheels.  

Apply sufficient pressure to ensure that the anti-tips are operating 

properly.  

If you ignore this warning, you may fall, tip over or lose 

control of the wheelchair and seriously injure yourself or others or 

damage the wheelchair.

10. Check the toe-in/toe-out and adjust as needed.
