TIPPING
WARNING
DO NOT tip the wheelchair without assistance.
DO NOT let the wheelchair drop the last few inches to the ground.
This could result in injury to the occupant.
When tipping the wheelchair, an assistant should grasp the back of the wheelchair on a
non-removable (non-detachable) part. Inform the wheelchair occupant before tilting the
wheelchair and remind him/her to lean back. Be sure the occupants feet and hands are
clear of all wheels and/or pinch points. Apply a continuous motion until the balance
point is achieved. At this point, the assistant will feel a difference in the weight
distribution. Turn the wheelchair in the desired direction if necessary. Slowly lower the
wheelchair in one continuous movement.
