Operating instructions LITTY 4you

Before using the wheelchair, after every
load on the anti-tippers and after every adjust-
ment to the product, make sure that the anti-
tippers are fully functional. In this case the anti-
tipper in operating position must not allow itself
to be pushed away to the side without undoing
it from its locked position (cylindrical pin in
groove). In addition to that, the lower edge of
the anti-tippers may be no more than 5 cm
away from the ground. If a larger gap is re-
quired or necessary, then you need to work
with your therapists and doctors to practice
and learn to handle the increased risk of tip-
ping.
If the functionality of the anti-tippers
should no longer be given or if you are in any
doubt about the serviceability, then have it
checked by your specialist retailer and have it
repaired before any further use. Otherwise
there is an increased risk or falling of getting
injured.
For example, the anti-tippers can be
com-
pletely removed
using a quick pin to transport
the product. To do this, press on the locking
knob on the quick pin and pull it out. After-
wards, the anti-tippers can be pulled out of the
anti-tipper barrels.

The Quick Pins can then be inserted in the
boreholes in the frame tubes to prevent losing
them.

To
attach the anti-tippers
again, plug the
anti-tippers into the anti-tipper barrels. Make
sure that you place the cylindrical pins in the
grooves. Then take a quick pin for every anti-
tipper in your hand, press the locking knob on
the quick pin and insert it back into the bore-
hole on the frame tube.
