Anti-tip tubes
Anti-Tip Tubes (Fig. 6.44)
Anti-tip tubes (1) provide additional safety for inexperienced
users when they are still learning how to operate their
wheelchairs. Anti-tip tubes (1) prevent a wheelchair from tipping
over backwards. The anti-tip tube (1) can be swung downwards
by pushing it or rotated forwards. There should be a gap of 30 to
50 mm to the floor. To go up or down a step (e.g. kerb) the anti-
tip tubes must be swung forwards, to prevent them from touching
the ground.
WARNING!
Incorrect set up of the anti tips will increase the risk of a
rearwards tip.
Crutch Holder
Crutch Holder (Fig. 6.45)
This device permits crutches to be transported directly on a
wheelchair. It has a Velcro loop to fasten crutches or other aids.
CAUTION!
Never try to use / remove the crutches or other aids while
moving.
Headrest
Headrest (Fig. 6.46)
The headrest can be raised and moved horizontally both
forwards and backwards.
To do this, loosen the screw (1, 2 or 3).
Now you can adjust to the desired position. Tighten screws
again (see the page on torque).
To be able to fold the wheelchair (Fig. 6.47)
In order to fold the wheelchair, please open the clamping lever
(1), slide the headrest bracket to the right side and fold it down.
Now you can fold the chair. To unfold the chair, please fold the
headrest bracket up, re-position the sliding gap into the
clamping lever and slide it to the left. Finally close the clamping
lever again.
