INSTALLING/ADJUSTING ANTI-TIPPERS (FIGURE 5)

NOTE: A 1-1/2 to 2-inch clearance between the bottom of the anti-tipper wheels and the floor MUST be

maintained at all times.
NOTE: If any adjustments/replacement of the rear wheels have been made, the anti-tippers must be adjusted to

maintain the 1-1/2 to 2-inch clearance. If this adjustment cannot be made with the anti-tippers currently in-

stalled, a different model may be required. Consult a qualified technician for assistance.

INSTALLING

1. Remove the anti-tippers from the accessory carton.

WARNING

Anti-tippers MUST be fully engaged and spring buttons fully protruding out of

adjustment holes.

2. Press the release buttons IN and install the anti-tippers with the wheels facing DOWN until

the locking buttons lock in place as shown in FIGURE 5.

NOTE: ALL anti-tippers will install with the wheels facing DOWN.
3. Adjust the anti-tippers. Refer to ADJUSTING ANTI-TIPPERS in this procedure of the manual.

ADJUSTING

1. Depress the release button on the wheeled portion of the anti-tipper and slide it up/down to

achieve 1-1/2 to 2-inch clearance.

WARNING

Anti-tippers MUST be fully engaged and release buttons fully protruding out of

same respective adjustment holes BEFORE use. This will avoid a 3-Wheeling

situation.
