A spring system on the anti-tippers can be
used for example to overcome obstacles to
swivel them
from the operating to passive
position
so that they can't get caught on the
obstacle. To swivel the anti-tippers away, pull
them each backwards out of the anti-tipper
barrels until the cylindrical pin protrudes from
the grooves and then turn these by 180° up-
wards so that the anti-tipping wheel points
upwards (Fig. 30). After releasing the anti-
tippers, the cylindrical pin slots into the groove
again.
After passing the obstacle, use the same proc-
ess to return the anti-tippers
from the passive
to the operating position
again. Make sure
that these have clicked back into place again
properly (Fig. 31).
When changing between passive and
operating position, always turn the anti-tippers
outwards in the direction of the respective drive
wheel as otherwise this could damage the
springs.

The anti-tippers have exclusively been
designed to minimize the risk of tipping over
backwards. They are not suitable for reducing
the risk of tipping forwards or to the side. There
are no safety accessories available to minimise
these risks. For this reason, handling these
risks need to be learnt in cooperation with your
therapists and doctors.
