WARNING
After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure all attaching hardware is
tightened securely. Otherwise injury or damage may occur.
Installing/Adjusting Anti-tippers
WARNING
Anti-tippers are specific to the different seat-to-floor heights. Refer to the chart in this section of
the manual 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, the
correct anti-tippers MUST be used to maintain a 1
1
/
2
to 2 inch ground clearance.
If so equipped, 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 adjustment holes.
ALWAYS use anti-tippers. When outdoors on wet, soft ground or on gravel surfaces, anti tippers
may not provide the same level of protection against tipover. Extra caution MUST be observed
when traversing such surfaces.
Ensure both anti-tippers are adjusted to the same mounting hole.
