V. SET UP & USE OF YOUR WHEELCHAIR
CC. Anti-Tips
Anti-tip tubes help prevent your wheelchair from tipping over backwards. When adjusted properly
they provide a significant increase in rearward stability. Your stability can be affected by traversing
uneven ground, a ramp, slope or other surface that changes your relationship to gravity. Your
stability can also be affected by other forces acting on you and your wheelchair such as someone
pushing down or leaning on your push handles or other parts of your chair. This can happen to
even the most experienced wheelchair user. People in your environment do not necessarily
understand they are impacting your stability.
Ki Mobility strongly recommends the use of Anti-Tip tubes!
WARNING:
Anti-tips must be used at all times.
Whether traversing uneven ground or sitting in
a crowded room, the unexpected may occur and your weight can dramatically shift causing a fall
which could cause serious injury or death.
1. Installing Anti-Tips (Fig. 38)

b. Insert into the anti-tip tube receiver.

hole.
d. Insert second anti-tip tube the same way.
