CAUTION!
Neither the side guards nor the armrests are to be used for lifting or carrying the wheelchair.
CAUTION!
When using a 24” rear wheel the armpad must be moved one level up.
Single Post Height-Adjustable Armrests
To adjust the height, pull the lever (1) and move the armrest to the desired height.
Afterwards make sure that the lever (1) locks back into position. Removing the
armrest is carried out in the same way.
To remove the side guard completely, push the lever (2). When fi tting the side
guard, the lever (2) must also be pulled.
Always make sure that the side guard locks into position correctly in the receiver. (Fig. 29).
Options - Anti-Tip Tubes
Anti-tip tubes provide additional safety for inexperienced users when they are
still learning how to operate their wheelchair. They prevent a wheelchair from
tipping over backwards. The anti tip tube should be inserted into the frame tube
until the fi rst of the two spring buttons enters the fi rst hole in the frame tube,
(Fig.30).
WARNING!
Incorrect setup of the anti-tips will increase the risk of a rearwards tip. You must swing the anti-tips
upwards when going up or down large obstacles, (such as a kerb), to prevent them from touching the
ground, then rotate them back down to the normal position.
NOTE:
Do not insert both buttons of the anti tip tube into the frame tube as this could damage the anti
Tipp and cause a loss of effectiveness. By pushing on the Second exposed release button, the safety
wheels can be set upwards or removed. There must always be a gap of between 3 cm and 5 cm between
the tube and the ground. You must swing the safety wheels upwards when going up and down large
obstacles (such as a kerb) to prevent them from touching the ground. Then rotate the safety wheels back
down to the normal position (Fig. 30).
WARNING!
Incorrect set up of the anti tips will increase the risk of a rearwards tip.
