the footrest, camber tube, seat angle, back angle, the tautness of the back
upholstery as well as the user's condition are directly related to the wheelchairs
stability. Any change to one or any combination of the five may cause the
wheelchair to decrease in stability. Use EXTREME caution when using a new seating
position. The addition of anti-tippers may be required.
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure all attaching
hardware is tightened securely - otherwise injury or damage may occur.
