Using wheel locks for braking is dangerous. Use wheel locks for parking ONLY. When properly adjusted, wheel locks prevent the rear wheels from turning when the chair is parked. Always adjust the wheel locks after making any changes to the rear cam- ber tube position. Wheel locks should be embedded into the tires to prevent wheel movement (when in the locked position).

C. ARMRESTS (Optional)

To install armrest, slide the outer armpost into the receiver that is mounted to the wheelchair frame. The armrest will auto- matically lock into place.

Note: Armrests can be mounted facing forward or

backward.

Armrests are detachable. Lifting the wheelchair by them may cause damage to the chair or injury to the rider. NEVER lift the wheelchair by the armrests.

D. ANTI-TIP TUBES (Optional)

Insert anti-tip tube into anti-tip tube receiv- er and placing locking pin through holes.

Note: Use a torque setting of 100 in./lbs. when

assembling wheel locks.

CAUTION:To allow the anti-tip tubes to function properly there must be a 1 1/2” to 2” clearance from the anti-tip wheel to the ground.
