ANTI-TIP WHEEL ADJUSTMENT

WARNING: Consult your Pride provider before attempting to change the anti-tip

wheel height! Changing the height affects handling under deceleration!

The Jazzy 1103 mid-wheel drive design provides superior performance and safety. The anti-tip wheels are an

integral part of this design because they provide you with stability during deceleration. The anti-tip wheels are

preset at the factory to a height of 1.25 cm off the ground. This is the ideal setting for most Jazzy 1103 users.

However, you may encounter situations where you may need to adjust the anti-tip wheels. For instance, if you

drive your Jazzy on surfaces, such as deep pile carpeting, you may notice that the anti-tip wheels have a tendency

to drag on the carpet. In this case, you may need to raise the anti-tip wheels. If you drive your Jazzy primarily on

smooth surfaces, such as linoleum or tile, you may find that you are tipping forward more than is comfortable for

you. (This may be more apparent for lighter users.) In this case, you may need to lower the anti-tip wheels.

Required Tools: 1/2-in. wrench, 5/32-in. hex wrench, 3/4-in. wrench

To adjust the anti-tip wheel height:

1. Remove the seat, body shroud, and the batteries. See III, “Operation” and V, “Disassembly.”

2. Locate the locking nut and setscrew on the anti-tip assembly. See figure 10.

3. Use a 1/2-in. wrench to loosen the locking nut.

4. Use a 5/32-in. hex wrench to turn the setscrew. Turn the setscrew clockwise to raise the anti-tip wheel. Turn

the setscrew counterclockwise to lower the anti-tip wheel.

5. Tighten the locking nut.
