Anti-Tip Wheels (Jazzy Select Only)
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. The user must also be seated in the power chair in order to properly adjust the anti-tip wheels.
To adjust the anti-tip wheels:
1.Loosen nut A. See figure 20.
2.Remove bolt B.
3.Raise or lower the anti-tip wheel. Each hole is in 0.5 in. (1.27 cm) increments.
4.Reinstall bolt B.
5.Tighten nutA.
6.Raise or lower the other anti-tip wheel so that it is at the same height.
