Anti-Tip Wheel Adjustment

The anti-tip wheels are designed to give your power chair increased stability on rough surfaces. The anti-tip wheels are
preset for smooth surfaces or indoor use only. If you plan on using your power chair on rough surfaces, it may be
necessary to adjust the anti-tip wheels to better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels may need adjustment if either of the
following occur:
! When coming to a stop, your power chair tips forward excessively.
! The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.

NOTE: Each drive tire must have at least 35 psi (2.4 bar)
of air pressure in order for the anti-tip wheels to be pro-
perly adjusted.

To adjust the anti-tips:
1. Turn off the power to the controller.
2. Ensure the power chair is in drive mode.
3. Disconnect the controller connector from the power base.
4. Remove the seat.
5. Remove the body shroud by lifting it straight up. See figure 22.
6. Adjust the anti-tip adjustment nut so that the anti-tip wheel is

0.50-1 in. (1.27-2.54 cm) off of the ground. See figure 19.
Turn the anti-tip adjustment nut to raise the anti-tip wheel or
to lower the anti-tip wheel.

7. Reinstall the body shroud.
8. Reinstall the seat.
9. Connect the controller connector into the power base.

WARNING! Consult your authorized Pride Provider before attempting to change the anti-tip height!

Changing the anti-tip wheel height affects handling under deceleration!

WARNING! The higher you raise the anti-tip wheels, the more tendency your power chair has to

tilt forward when coming to a stop. You can compensate for this by making a small adjustment to

the pre-programmed deceleration setting in the controller or by moving the seat assembly farther

to the rear of your power chair.

PROHIBITED! Do not remove the anti-tip wheels.
