CAUTION: 

●  This method should only be attempted by people who are experienced in 

wheelchair use. Strong arms are also necessary. It is always better to have the 
help of an attendant. 

●  Leaning backwards causes the casters to rise higher BUT it is much safer to lean 

forwards and stay balanced. 

4.13 Going Down Curbs 

Please note: It is always better to avoid curbs where possible by using ramped curbs 
or slopes and this operation is best attempted with the aid of an attendant. 

4.14 Going Down Curbs Forwards With an Attendant 

 

CAUTION: 

●  This is the more difficult method and can jar the user but allows a better view of 

traffic. 

●  Be careful that the anti-tipper does not get caught on the curb causing the user 

to fall. 

 

NEVER ALLOW THE CHAIR TO TIP FORWARDS WHEN GOING DOWN A CURB. 
4.14.1 Position the chair so that the front casters are near the edge of the curb and 

make sure that the road is clear. 

4.14.2 Move the chair slowly and carefully forwards while tilting it back slightly.    Be 

ready to take the weight when the rear wheels cross the curb edge.    Ensure that 
both rear wheels touch the ground at the same time to avoid tipping the chair. 

4.14.3 Gently lower the front casters. AVOID JARRING THE USER. 

4.15 Going Down Curbs Backwards With an Attendant 

 

CAUTION: 

●  This is the easier and smoother method BUT it requires the attendant to step 

backwards into the road.   

4.15.1 Back the chair to the curb edge and be careful that the back wheels are equally 

near the edge.
