user condition directly relate to the stability of the wheelchair. Any change to one or any combination of the seven may
cause the wheelchair to decrease in stability. These adjustments MUST be performed by a qualified technician.

If changing the seat-to-floor height the correct anti-tippers MUST be ordered to maintain a 1 1/2 to 2 inch ground
clearance.
