Center override lever makes backing up unoccupied chair a cinch.

Operation:

The device consists of left and right mounting brackets, a seat lever and brake arms. When properly installed, the seat lever is depressed under the weight of the occupied wheelchair seat. This in turn rotates the brake arms off of the tires. In this state the wheelchair moves freely in all directions. The brake arms are biased toward engaging the tires (through adjustable spring tension) as weight is lifted from the seat. Once engaged, the brake arms prevent the wheels from rotating backward. The chair is still able to move forward in the engaged position. The unit features a temporary override lever to assist caregivers in moving the unoccupied chair backward. Removing the seat lever (installed with quick release pins) allows the chair to be folded for transport or storage. This device can be used with seat cushions. This device is not compatible with solid drop seats.
