4.3.2 Tilting by the Attendant
Make sure both the user's feet are on the footplates and will not slip off. Make
sure the handgrips are secure and cannot slip off.
Release both brakes.
Grasp both push handles firmly.
Put your stronger foot on the relevant tipping lever at the back of the chair.
Tell the person in the chair that you are about to tilt the chair backwards.
Pull back with both hands and push down and forwards with the foot. This will
bring the chair onto the back wheels. (See Figure 4.22)
CAUTION:
When a chair is tilted to about 25 degrees it will balance on its rear wheels and
be easy to hold. If it is tilted further back it will be difficult to hold and the person
in the chair will feel unsafe.
Lower with a straight back; keep your foot on the anti-tipper and lower the chair
slowly forwards softly to the ground.
4.3.4 Going Down Curbs
Please note: It is always better to avoid Curbs where possible by using ramped
Curbs or slopes and this operation is best attempted with the aid of an attendant.
