Anti-tip wheel
This accessory must be present on both sides of this model wheelchair.
On this model, two anti-tip wheels are always provided as standard.
This accessory is designed to prevent the wheelchair from tipping back.
To be efficient, it is fixed at approximately 2-3 cm from the ground.
In order to check the correct position of use, with one hand, take hold of the
tube and try to move it right and left: the tube should not turn (there may be a
little play). Then, push the tube downward: the tube goes down by
approximately 1 cm but it must not come off.
After this check, verify the efficiency of the system with an
attendant. It is necessary to raise the front of the wheelchair until
the anti-tip wheel touches the ground and prevent the wheelchair
from tipping. Take great care when performing this operation.
You can remove or swing in the anti-tip wheel when, for instance, you have to go over a step.
To swing the anti-tip wheel, push it down by approximately 1 cm (the part A of the support moves
away from the part B without coming off) and turn it sideward.
When you turn the anti-tip wheel by 180° (opposite position), the support automatically locks (the
part A locks in the part B).
To remove the anti-tip wheel, push the pin P that is located
in the upper side of the support S and push the tube down.
To put the anti-tip wheel on, insert the part A of the support
in the hole of the part B and turn the tube until the two parts
locks together.
Due to the precision of the supports A and B, inserting and removing the
anti-tip wheel is possible only with vertical movement.

Tipping aid
This accessory has been designed to enable the assistant to tip back the wheelchair without a great
effort in order to go over small steps easily. With one foot, press down on the plastic support while,
at the same time, applying downward force onto the push handles.
You can remove the tipping aid by pressing the pin A that hold it in positon and sliding the tube
from the support S.
To insert the tipping aid, slide the tube in the support S until the pin A touches the support.
Then, press the pin and let the tube in until the pin locks through the hole of the support.
