WARNING! Consult your Pride provider before attempting to change the anti-tip wheel
height! Changing the anti-tip height affects handling under deceleration!
The Jazzy 1143 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 1.2 cm off the ground. This is the ideal setting for most Jazzy 1143 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. In this case, you may need to lower the anti-tip wheels.
To adjust the anti-tip wheel height:
1. Remove the seat, the body shroud, and the batteries. See V. Disassembly and VI. Batteries and Charging.
2. Locate the locking nut and adjustment bolt on the anti-tip assembly. See figure 12.
3. Use a 1/2-in. wrench to loosen the locking nut.
4. Turn the adjustment bolt clockwise to lower the anti-tip wheel. Turn the adjustment bolt counterclockwise to
raise the anti-tip wheel.
5. Tighten the locking nut.
NOTE: Before making height adjustments on your anti-tips, consult your Pride provider to make sure that
your seat is positioned properly. Moving your seat rearward 2.5 cm may be sufficient.
