Anti-Tip Wheels
The anti-tip wheels are designed to give your power
chair increased stability on rough surfaces. The anti-tip
wheels are preset for smooth surfaces or indoor use
only. If you plan on using your power chair on rough
surfaces, it may be necessary to adjust the anti-tip
wheels to better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels
may need adjustment if either of the following occur:
When coming to a stop, your power chair tips
forward excessively.
The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.
WARNING! Consult your Quantum
Rehab Provider before attempting to
change the anti-tip wheel height!
Changing the anti-tip wheel height
affects handling under deceleration!
WARNING! The higher you raise the
anti-tip wheels, the more you increase
your power chair’s tendency to tilt
forward when coming to a stop. You
can compensate for this by having
your Quantum Rehab Provider make a
small adjustment to the pre-
programmed deceleration setting in
the controller or by moving the seat
assembly further to the rear of your
power chair.
PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti-
tip wheels.
To adjust the anti-tip wheels:
1. Remove the anti-tip wheel.
2. Remove the nut and bolt on the anti-tip bracket.
See figure 22.
3. Raise or lower the anti-tip wheel.
4. Reinstall the nut and bolt on the anti-tip bracket.
5. Reinstall the wheel.
6. Raise or lower the other anti-tip bracket so that it is
at the same height.
NOTE: Each drive tyre must be inflated to the air
pressure rating on the side of the tyre in order for the
anti-tip wheels to be properly adjusted.
