Operating Information
Anti-Tippers
WARNING
Anti-tippers are specific to the different seat-to-floor angles and/or seat-to-floor heights. Refer to the charts in
Installing/Adjusting Anti-Tippers on page 49 for correct usage and adjustment. If these requirements cannot be achieved,
DO NOT use the wheelchair. Contact a qualified technician. If changing the seat-to-floor height with or without a change to
seat-to-floor angle, the correct anti-tippers must be used to maintain a 1

to 2-inch ground clearance.
Anti-tippers must be attached at all times. Inasmuch as the anti-tippers are an option on this wheelchair (you may order
with or without the anti-tippers), Invacare strongly recommends ordering the anti-tippers as a safeguard for the wheelchair
user.
Anti-tippers MUST be fully engaged and release buttons fully protruding out of the adjustment holes.
Ensure both anti-tippers are adjusted to the same mounting hole.
The manual wheelchair is intended for indoor and outdoor use on firm surfaces. When outdoors on wet, soft ground or on
gravel surfaces, anti-tippers may not provide the same level of protection against tip over. DO NOT operate on soft
surfaces such as sand, grass or gravel.
