1 INTRODUCTION
Important safety, operating, and maintenance instructions that warrant your attention are
included in this user manual. Read the entire manual carefully before operating your new
wheelchair, and refer to it as often as necessary to help maintain good performance standards.
Consult your healthcare professional and GF Health Products, Inc. ("GF") authorized distributor for

according to your individual physical abilities and needs, and to make certain that your wheelchair is
properly prescribed and adjusted for your use.
The safety precautions in this manual are general warnings intended to be used only as
basic guidelines. You may nd it necessary to develop your own methods for safely solving
frequently encountered challenges. Again, consult your professional medical advisors for their

2 IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WHEN USING YOUR WHEELCHAIR. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY TO YOU OR OTHERS OR DAMAGE TO YOUR WHEELCHAIR.
Safety requires the constant attention of the wheelchair user and the attendant. It is extremely
important to learn and always use safe methods of performing basic daily activities. Always
consult your healthcare professional to determine those methods most suitable for your
individual abilities.
Protect yourself and your wheelchair by having your Advantage Recliner serviced regularly.
Whenever any part of your Advantage Recliner is not functioning properly, contact your
GF authorized distributor immediately, as a hazardous situation could result, causing personal
injury or damage to your wheelchair. ONLY EXCELLENT CONDITION IS ACCEPTABLE WHERE SAFETY
IS CONCERNED. Periodic inspection, adjustment, and replacement of worn parts will provide many
years of superb performance.

5 HANDLING TIPS
The Everest & Jennings Advantage Recliner has been designed and engineered to perform as
a stable and well balanced unit when used for its intended purpose. However, it is possible to
tip the Advantage Recliner over if it is used improperly or if you move beyond the center of
gravity. You may want to consider the use of a positioning belt, available from your distributor
or www.grahameld.com, to maintain proper weight distribution. We urge you to learn the
characteristics of your wheelchair. It is most important to learn safe methods to perform the daily
activities basic to your lifestyle. Consult your medical professionals for assistance in developing
the skills and proper techniques to perform all activities safely.
BALANCE
Proper balance is the key to maintaining the stability of your wheelchair. Reaching, bending, and
transferring to or from a wheelchair will change your weight distribution and center of gravity.
When performing such activities, do so as instructed in the following paragraphs to avoid tipping
the wheelchair.
TRANSFER
WARNING: Always ensure the wheelchair is on a stable, level surface before transfer.
WARNING: Always engage wheel locks before transfer.
WARNING: Do not step on the footplates; this could cause the wheelchair to tip. Fold them
up, and either detach them, or swing them aside.
WARNING: There is a critical moment when there is little or no seat platform beneath you.
Take every precaution to reduce this unsupported distance before you attempt transfer.
Patient Lift Transfer Transfer Board Transfer
Transferring into or out of a wheelchair is a very difcult maneuver; always exercise extreme
care even when transferring with the aid of an attendant, a patient lift (shown at above left), or
a transfer board (shown at above right). Consult your medical professionals for assistance in
developing your individual transfer technique. Engage both wheel locks and ensure the wheelchair
is stabilized and will not move or slide during the transfer. Take extra precautions to prevent
tipping. Use good body mechanics to prevent personal injury.

3K02-INS-LAB-RevD19 • 22" x 19" Advantage Recliner User Manual 14
REACHING / BENDING
WARNING: Always turn the casters frontward to provide stability while reaching. If in
doubt, ask for assistance or use a device that will extend your reach without requiring you
to shift your weight.
Although it is not recommended, you may nd it occasionally necessary to lean or reach from your
wheelchair. Consult with your healthcare professional for assistance in developing your personal
safe reaching or moving techniques suited to your ability and restrictions.
REACHING / BENDING FORWARD OR SIDEWARD
WARNING: Do not attempt to reach objects if you are required to move forward in the seat.
Donotattempttoretrieveobjectsfromtheoorifyoumustreachdownbetweenyour
knees. Do not shift your weight in the direction that you are reaching and/or bending; this
could cause the wheelchair to tip.
Reach Forward Reach Sideward
1. Maneuver the wheelchair as close as possible to the object you wish to reach.
2. Rotate both casters fully forward: Go forward, and then back the wheelchair toward the object
to swing the casters fully forward.
3. Engage both wheel locks.
4. Ensure the casters are rotated fully forward before reaching. If not, repeat step 2.
REACHING / BENDING BACKWARD
WARNING: Do not engage the wheel locks while reaching or bending backward. Should
your weight suddenly shift accidentally, it is better to roll in that direction than to tip over.
WARNING: Do not lean over the back upholstery; this could cause the wheelchair to tip.
1. Maneuver the wheelchair as close as possible to the object; the rear wheels will limit how close
you can get.
2. Rotate both casters fully forward: Go forward, and then back the wheelchair toward the object
to swing the casters fully forward.
3. Reach only as far as your arm will extend without changing your sitting position. If in doubt,
reposition the wheelchair or ask for assistance.

3K02-INS-LAB-RevD19 • 22" x 19" Advantage Recliner User Manual 15
RAMPS AND INCLINES
WARNING: During descent, the footplates' lowest point should be no closer to the ground
than 2 1/2 inches to permit proper clearance.
WARNING: Do not attempt inclines without anti-tippers installed. Do not attempt any incline
or decline of more than 6 degrees (10% grade, or one foot of rise or fall per ten feet of ramp
length).
WARNING: Do not use wheel locks to slow your descent. Attempting to use wheel locks
is likely to result in accidental locking that could cause the wheelchair to stop abruptly,
suddenly pitch forward, or tip sideways.
WARNING: Avoid changing direction while descending a ramp or incline, as this could
cause instability.
Most people are capable of negotiating short inclines without assistance, depending upon upper
body strength, endurance, and the degree of incline. Know your own strength and endurance
capabilities and limitations before attempting to negotiate an incline or decline. Practice with an
attendant or healthcare professional rst before attempting any inclines, declines curbs or ramps.
Always inspect the ramp for hazards such as holes, slippery or uneven surfaces, etc. before
starting up or down. If you can not see the entire ramp, ask someone to inspect it for you.
ASCENT
Lean the upper part of your body slightly forward, as shown above, as you ascend the incline. If it
becomes necessary to stop on the incline, avoid any abrupt or sudden forward movement as you
resume climbing; this could cause tipping.
DESCENT
Always face forward when going down a ramp, but do not lean forward; this could cause tipping.
Lean slightly backward to increase stability. It is critical to keep the wheelchair under control at
all times. Descent should be made slowly and safely by grasping the handrims; however, use care,
as friction heat will be generated. We recommend the use of gloves to reduce the effects of friction
heat, but going slower is a better alternative.

3K02-INS-LAB-RevD19 • 22" x 19" Advantage Recliner User Manual 16
CURBS
Curbs should only be negotiated with the assistance of an attendant. When you encounter curbs,
nd a way around, or use the ramps now available in most locations. If there is no ramp available,
avoid the curb by using the disabled-designated elevators now required in most locations.
CURBS — WITH ATTENDANT
Going up (Method 1) Going Up (Method 2) (Going Down)
WARNING: When approaching a curb, ensure the hand grips are securely fastened and do
not turn or slip off.
Curbs should only be negotiated with the assistance of an attendant. The following are
suggestions only for curb negotiation. It is important for you to develop your own safe technique
that is best suited for your abilities with the aid of your healthcare professionals.
GOING UP (METHOD 1)
When approaching a curb, ensure the hand grips
are securely fastened and do not turn or slip off.
Tilt the wheelchair backward to its balance point
and move forward until the front casters pass
over the top of the curb. Lower the front casters
slowly onto the curb while lifting the wheelchair
by the push handles, and push forward until the
rear wheels roll up and over the curb. Ensure the
wheelchair has completely cleared the curb and
can not roll backwards.
GOING UP (METHOD 2)
Ensure the hand grips are securely fastened and do not turn or slip off. Turn the wheelchair
around and back up until the rear wheels are against the curb. Tilt the wheelchair back to its
balance point and lift up by the push handles while pulling the wheelchair up and over the curb.
DO NOT let the front casters down until the wheelchair is back far enough to clear the curb.
Ascent

3K02-INS-LAB-RevD19 • 22" x 19" Advantage Recliner User Manual 17
Descent
GOING DOWN
Ensure the hand grips are securely fastened and
do not turn or slip off. While standing behind
the wheelchair, turn the wheelchair around and
carefully back down the step. Hold the handgrips
tightly and pull the wheelchair to where the rear
wheels reach the curb edge, then slowly roll the
rear wheels down onto the lower level. After
the wheels are safely on the lower level, tilt the
wheelchair back to its balance position and turn
it face forward. Lower the front casters carefully
by placing one foot on the tipping lever and
gradually decreasing the force of exertion.
STAIRS AND ESCALATORS
WARNING: Never attempt to negotiate stairs or escalators in your Advantage Recliner.
Stairs and escalators are dangerous obstacles. If you encounter steps and there is no ramp
available, avoid the steps by utilizing the disabled designated elevators now required in most
locations.
WARNING: Never attempt to negotiate stairs or escalators in your Advantage Recliner.
WEIGHT TRAINING
WARNING: This wheelchair is not designed or tested as a seat for weight training.

3K02-INS-LAB-RevD19 • 22" x 19" Advantage Recliner User Manual 18
6 ADJUSTMENTS
The Advantage Recliner offers several adjustments to make it easier and more comfortable to
drive. Section 6, MAINTENANCE, offers preventive maintenance suggestions for keeping your
wheelchair in excellent condition; ensure that all components are in excellent condition before
adjusting. The following are recommended methods; after a few adjustments, you may develop
your own. Always consult your GF authorized distributor for assistance.
The person performing adjustments on the Advantage Recliner has the responsibility of making
certain that the user can safely operate the wheelchair with the adjustments selected. This
person must evaluate the user's ability, weight, physical condition, the environment in which the
wheelchair will be used, and the terrain over which the wheelchair will travel.
All adjustments and their page locations are referenced in the index at the end of this manual.
Specic tools needed to perform each adjustment are identied in adjustment directions. A
complete list of tools needed to perform all adjustments in this section follows:
Hex wrench furnished with wheelchair
M13 wrench
M10 wrench
M5 hex key
REAR WHEELS & CASTERS
We recommend that you do not replace or adjust rear wheel or caster components yourself, since
special tools and training are required. Please contact your GF authorized distributor when your
rear wheels or casters need adjustment, or if you wish to change seat height.
