Reclining Wheelchair
Safety
Warranty
Stability
This wheelchair is designed to be
safe and stable as long as center of
gravity is maintained while going
about normal activities. Care must
be taken while performing activities
that shift your center of gravity in the
chair. Never reach so far that you
need to shift in the seat or bend
over out of the chair. When you
reaching for objects that require
you to lean, be certain front casters
are pointed in a forward position
that extends the wheel base and
stabilizes the chair.
Ramps
Be sure of your own capabilities,
limitations and strength before
attempting to go up a ramp.
Correct techniques on ramp
navigation should be shown to you
by a qualified professional. If you
must stop on an incline, avoid
sudden, abrupt movement when
you resume movement. Backward
angling of the chair or sudden
abrupt movement could cause
instability. Attempting to use the
wheel lock brakes could result in
accidental locking, tipping to one
side, sudden stopping. Avoid
changing direction when going
down an incline, as this could result
in instability or tipping over. Never
use your wheelchair on an incline
steeper than 4.8°.
Care of the Wheelchair
Always ensure that your wheelchair
is dry after use to prevent corrosion.
It should be regularly washed using
warm water and a mild detergent.
Dry after washing. Between uses the
wheelcahir can be folded for
storage.
