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 per-
sonnel before attempting to install this equipment
- otherwise, injury or damage may occur.

INSTALLATION WARNING

After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BE-
FORE 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 PRO-
CEDURE 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-to-
floor angle or seat-to-floor height may require dif-
ferent anti-tippers.

If a change in the seat-to-floor height is desired,
the correct anti-tippers MUST be ordered to main-
tain a 1-1/2 to 2-inch ground clearance. Seat-to-
floor heights have specific positions depending on
rear wheel size, rear wheel position, front caster posi-
tion 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 safe-
guard 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.
