4.10. Tip protection and anti-tip
wheels (optional)
The combination of tip protection and the anti-tip wheels can be used
for greater stability on inclines and as an aid for the accompanying
person for overcoming obstacles such as the edges of kerbstones.
The assembly can be found in the installation manual.

4.10.1. Tipping aid

40
Hold the wheelchair firmly by the push handles with both hands. You
then press one of the tipping aids with one foot (Fig. 41), while at the
same time pushing the push handles downwards.

4.10.2. Anti-tip wheels

The anti-tip wheels prevent the wheelchair from tipping backwards.
There must be approx. 3–5 cm of clearance between the wheel and the
ground. Pull the washer backwards and move the anti-tip wheel along
41
the guide to adjust it. The anti-tip wheels are especially recommended
for inexperienced wheelchair users or leg amputees.
If you do not need the anti-tip wheels, they can be pushed to the
highest position or pulled completely off.

66
Always use the anti-tip wheels in pairs.

4.11. Camber angle

It is possible to set the camber angle in the range from 1 - 4 °. Please
mention it with your order. The greater the stability by turning the
wheelchair, or rotating on the spot.
Information about subsequent changes and, if necessary, the
adjustment of the toe-in can be found in the installation manual.

5.1. Entering and leaving from the
side
• Move the wheelchair as close as possible to the present or future
seat so they are side by side.
• If you wish to move from another wheelchair or room chair, lock it
by setting the parking brakes.
• Secure the BX 11 against rolling away accidentally by activating
the parking brake.
• Pivot the armrest backwards and away, or remove the side part with
the armrest.
• Fold the foot plates/footrest to the side or remove the leg rests.
• Now slide sideways onto the other seat.
• Make sure that you are sitting as far back in the seat as possible.
• Finally, return the leg rest to their original position and reinsert the
side parts if necessary.
Never stand on the footrest!
Risk of tipping!
