Options - Anti-Tips

Anti-Tip Tubes
Anti-tip tubes provide additional
safety for inexperienced users
when they are still learning how to
operate their wheelchair. They
prevent a wheelchair from tipping
over backwards, (Fig. 29.0).
By pushing on the release button
(1), the safety wheels can be set
upwards or removed. There must
always be a gap of between 30mm and 50mm between the tube and
the ground.
You must swing the safety wheels upwards when going up and
down large obstacles (such as a kerb) to prevent them from
touching the ground. Then rotate the safety wheels back down to the
normal position.
WARNING!
Incorrect setup of the anti-tips will increase the risk of a rearwards
tip.

Pelvic Restraint Belt

DANGER!
• Before using your wheelchair ensure the lap belt is worn.
• The lap belt must be checked on a daily
• basis to ensure it is free from any obstruction or adverse
wear.
• Always make sure that the lap strap is correctly secured and
adjusted prior to use. If the strap is too loose it could cause
the user to slip down and risk suffocation or cause serious
injury.
The lap belt is fitted to the wheelchair as shown in the
illustrations. The seat belt comprises 2 halves. They are fitted
using the existing seat stay retaining bolt fitted through the
eyelet on the belt. The belt is routed under the rear of the side
panel. (Fig. 30.0)
Adjust the belt position so buckles are in the centre of the seat.
