WARNING

After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure all attach- ing hardware is tightened securely - otherwise injury or damage may occur.

INSTALLING/ADJUSTING THE ANTI-TIPPERS

WARNING

Anti-tippers are specific to the different seat-to-floor angles and/or seat- to-floor heights. Refer to the chart in this section of the manual for cor- rect usage and adjustment. If these requirements CANNOT be achieved, DO NOT use the wheelchair. Contact a qualified technician. Any changes to the seat-to-floor angle or seat-to-floor height may require different anti-tippers.

If so equipped, anti-tippers MUST be attached at all times. Inasmuch as the anti-tippers are an option for this wheelchair (You may order with or with- out the anti-tippers), Invacare strongly recommends ordering the anti- tippers as a safeguard for the wheelchair user.

Anti-tippers MUST be fully engaged and release buttons fully protruding out of adjustment holes.

Ensure both anti-tippers are adjusted to the same mounting hole.

INSTALLING THE ANTI-TIPPERS (FIGURES 1 AND 2)

NOTE: To ensure the correct model anti-tipper is used refer to FIGURE 1. Measurements for anti- tippers are approximate and are taken with extension tube in BOTTOM hole position.
