Anti-Tip Device
An integrated limited tension caster/axle link comes
standard on the TriPod

LT.
The limited tension link is not removable to prevent
injuries.
The limited tension link is designed to allow the chair to
climb or descend an obstacle, such as a low curb, while
maintaining a high level of stability.
Warning: Under normal use, anti-tip devices will
prevent the wheelchair from tipping over backward.
Anti-tip devices are to stay on the chair at all times
and should not be altered or disabled.
