WARNING: Anti-tip tubes can help keep your chair from tipping over backward in
most normal conditions.
When locked in place (in the “down” position), anti-tip should be between 1-1/2” and
2” off the ground. Adjust the height as necessary.
a. If set too HIGH, they may not prevent a tip-over.
b. If set too LOW, they may “hang up” on obstacles you can expect to encounter
during normal use. If the chair catches on an obstacle, the chair may tip over.
WARNING: Positioning belts should never be used for securement in motor vehicles.
An additional WC-19 compliant automotive type seat belt is required when the chair
is used in vehicles.
