OWNER’S MANUAL
Tilt Wheelchair
5.1 Stability
Before using ANY recline position of
this wheelchair, make sure the rear
wheels are in the best position to
maintain the stability of the
wheelchair.
The seat height, seat angle, pivot
point of seat frame, seating system,
caster position, size and position of
the rear wheels, as well as the user
condition directly relate to the
stability of the wheelchair.
Any change to one or any
combination above may cause the
wheelchair to lose stability. These
adjustments MUST be performed by
an authorized dealer or qualified
technician.
Before using the recliner option,
make sure the anti-tipper wheel
assemblies are in the lowest
adjustment hole. (Adjustment hole
closest to the ground/floor).
