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 personnel before attempting to install this equipment
- otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
INSTALLATION WARNING
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE 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 PROCEDURE 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-tofloor angle or seat-to-floor height may require different anti-tippers.
If a change i n the seat-to-floor height is desired,
the correct anti-tippers MUST be ordered to maintain a 1-1/2 to 2-inch ground clearance. Seat-tofloor heights have specific positions depending on
rear wheel size, rear wheel position, front caster position 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 safeguard 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.
