Pushbar with Ratchet Joint (Fig. 29)
The pushbar with ratchet joints allows height and angle adjustment of the pushbar to obtain a comfortable posi-
tion for the person pushing the chair..
By loosening the clamping levers (Fig. 29, item A) you can release the pushbar and bring it into the correct
height. To adjust the angle, loosen the clamping levers (Fig. 29, item B).
Be sure to snugly re-tighten the clamping levers (items A and B) after all adjustments.
Anti-tipper, swing-away, for 12" wheels (Fig. 30)
The anti-tipper prevents the mobility base with seating shell from tipping too far backward. The anti-tipper can
be disengaged with slight pressure from above and then swung to the rear into functional position or back to the
front.
The anti-tipper engages in 2 positions:
1. Rearwards oriented (active setting of the anti-tipper, functional)
2. Approx. 90° position (setting required when using the storage bag or when clearing obstacles or simply when
the anti-tipper is not needed).
Attention:
It is absolutely necessary that the anti-tipper be in functional position when tilting the seating unit to the
rear or when adjusting the angle between seat and back to more than 90°!
Figure 31
Anti-tipper for 22"/24" Wheels
The anti-tipper (Fig. 31) prevents the mobility base with seating shell from tipping too far backward. The anti-
tipper can be disengaged with slight pressure from above and then swung to the rear into functional position or
back to the front.
It is essential for the anti-tipper to be swung into functional position if the seat or backrest is to be tilted
backwards.
After unscrewing the fixing screw, the anti-tipper can be length adjusted in three increments. With increasing
length of the anti-tipper in functional position the possible tilting range decreases.
In functional position, the distance between the anti-tipper wheels and ground must be 5 cm at maximum.
