SAFETY SUMMARY

The following recommendations are made for the safe

use of the Rear Anti-Tippers:

GENERAL WARNING

DO NOT install or use this equipment without

first reading and understanding these

instructions. If you are unable to understand the

Warnings, Cautions or Instructions, contact a

healthcare professional, dealer or technical per-

sonnel before attempting to install this equipment

- otherwise, injury or damage may occur.

INSTALLATION WARNING

After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BE-

FORE use, make sure that all attaching hardware

is tightened securely.

Anti-tippers are specific to the different rear wheels

and/or seat-to-floor heights. Refer to the chart in

INSTALLING/ADJUSTING THE ANTI-TIPPERS in this PRO-

CEDURE for correct usage and adjustment. If these

requirements CANNOT be achieved, DO NOT use

the wheelchair. Contact an Invacare dealer or

qualified technician. Any changes to the seat-to-

floor angle or seat-to-floor height may require dif-

ferent anti-tippers.

If a change in the seat-to-floor height is desired,

the correct anti-tippers MUST be ordered to main-

tain a 1-1/2 to 2-inch ground clearance. Seat-to-

floor heights have specific positions depending on

rear wheel size, rear wheel position, front caster posi-

tion and seat-to-floor angle. These adjustments MUST

be performed by a qualified technician.

Inasmuch as the anti-tippers are an option on

this wheelchair (You may order with or without

the anti-tippers), Invacare strongly recommends

ordering the anti-tippers as an additional safe-

guard for the wheelchair user.

Anti-tippers MUST be fully engaged. Ensure that the

locking pins of the anti-tippers fully protrudes out of

the hole on the side of the wheelchair frame.

Ensure both anti-tippers have the same ground

clearance.
