Anti-Tip Wheels Adjustment

The anti-tip wheels are designed to give your power chair increased stability on rough surfaces. The anti-tip wheels are preset at the factory for smooth surfaces or indoor use only. If you plan on using your power chair on rough surfaces, it may be necessary to adjust the anti-tip wheels to better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels may need adjustment if the following occurs:

!When coming to a stop, your power chair tips forward excessively.

!The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.

WARNING! Consult your authorized Pride Provider before attempting to change the anti-tip wheel height! Changing the anti-tip wheel height affects handling under acceleration!

WARNING! The higher you raise the anti-tip wheels, the more you increase your power chair’s tendency to tilt forward while decelerating. You can compensate for this by having your authorized Pride Provider make a small adjustment to the pre-programmed deceleration setting in the controller or by moving the seat assembly farther to the back of your power chair.

PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti-tip wheels.

NOTE: Each drive tire must be inflated to 35 psi (2.4 bar) if equipped with pneumatic tires.

To adjust the anti-tip wheels:

1.Turn off the power to the controller.

2.Make sure that the manual freewheel levers are in the drive position.

3.Disconnect the controller from the electronics tray.

4.Remove the seat.

5.Unplug the left and right motor connectors.

6.Unplug and remove both battery boxes.

7.Remove both left and right shrouds. Two screws fasten each shroud section to the frame. These screws are located on the top of the shroud near the seat post holes.

8.Locate the anti-tip adjustment nut. See figure 29.

9.Turn the adjustment nut counterclockwise to lower the anti-tip wheels and soften the suspension, or turn the adjustment nut clockwise to raise the anti-tip wheels and stiffen the suspension.
