is that your chair will tip over backward.

your chair. Do not change the set-up UNLESS you consult your health-
care advisor first.
3. Adjust the rear wheel locks after you make any change to the rear
axles.

K. REAR WHEEL LOCKS
Rear wheel locks are NOT designed to slow or stop a moving wheelchair.
Use them only to keep the rear wheels from rolling when your chair is at a
complete stop.
1. NEVER use rear wheel locks to try to slow or stop your chair when
it is moving. Doing so may cause a fall or tip-over
2. To keep the rear wheels from rolling, always set both rear wheel
locks when you transfer to or from your chair.
3. Low pressure in a rear tire may cause the wheel lock on that side to
slip and may allow the wheel to turn when you do not expect it.
4. Make sure lock arms embed in tires at least 1/8 inch when locked. If
you fail to do so, the locks may not work.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or
