Anti-Tip Wheel Adjustment

The anti-tip wheels are designed to give your power chair increased stability on rough surfaces. The anti-tip wheels are preset 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 either of the following occur:

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

!The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.

WARNING! Consult your Quantum Rehab Specialist before attempting to change the anti-tip height! Changing the anti-tip wheel height affects handling under deceleration!

WARNING! The higher you raise the anti-tip wheels, the more tendency your power chair has to tilt forward when coming to a stop. You can compensate for this by making a small adjustment to the pre-programmed deceleration setting in the controller or by moving the seat assembly farther to the rear of your power chair.

PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti-tip wheels from your power chair.

NOTE: Each drive tire must have at least 35 psi (2.4 bar) of air pressure in order for the anti-tip wheels to be properly adjusted.

To adjust the anti-tip wheels:

1.Place a wrench on the inner locknut of the anti-tip bracket located right after the shock strut. See figure 22.

2.Turn the locknut counterclockwise to loosen.

3.Place your wrench on the adjustable cam located on the other side of the locknut. See figure 23.

4.To adjust the anti-tip upward, turn the cam counterclockwise. To adjust the anti-tip downward, turn the cam clockwise.
