Foot Platform Angle Adjustment

You can adjust the angle of the foot platform with a hex key. See figure 19.

To adjust the foot platform angle:

1.Locate the setscrew on the underside of the foot platform.

2.Turn the setscrew to raise or lower the front of the foot platform.

Anti-Tip Wheels

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 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 Quantum Rehab Provider make a small adjustment to the pre- programmed deceleration setting in the controller or by moving the seat assembly further to the rear of your power chair.

PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti- tip wheels.
