Anti-Tip Tubes
•
Anti-tip tubes can help keep your chair from tipping
over backward in most normal conditions.
•
Sunrise Medical Recommends Use Of Anti-Tip
Tubes:
•
UNLESS you are a skilled rider of this chair and are
sure you are not at risk to tip over.
• Each time you modify or adjust your chair. The
change may make it easier to tip backward. Use anti-
tip tubes until you adapt to the change, and are sure
you are not at risk to tip over.
•
When locked in place (in the "down" position) anti-tip
tubes should be BETWEEN 38mm and 51mm off the
ground.
•
If set too HIGH, they may not prevent a tip-over.
•
If set too LOW, they may "hang up" on obstacles you
can expect in normal use. If this occurs, you may fall
or your chair may tip over.
• Keep Anti-Tip Tubes Locked In Place UNLESS:
•
You have an attendant, or
•
You have to climb or descend a curb, or overcome an
obstacle, and can safely do so without them. At these
times, make sure anti-tip tubes are up, out of the way.
