SAFETY WARNINGS TO CONSIDER FOR USER PURPOSES
THIS DEVICE IS SUITABLE FOR TYPE A; HIGH USAGE (e.g. INSTITUTIONS) AND SHOULD NEVER
BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE OTHER THAN ORIGINALLY INTENDED
Forward Stability
The casters on all models are equipped with dual locks. The step-on
lever activates both the roll lock and the swivel lock. It is essential that
all casters on the shower chair be in an outward position before
engaging the locks for optimal forward and lateral stability. If so
equipped, disengage the optional directional caster lock before rotating
the rear caster to the rearward position and applying the caster’s dual-
locks.
USERS MUST NOT lean forward while sitting in the Raz Mobile Shower
Commode Chair as this may cause the chair to tip forward.
USERS MUST NOT wheel down a ramp without an attendant who can
hold onto the chair during the descent.

CASTER LOCKS ARE NOT BRAKES! Never use caster locks to
slow down the shower chair when descending inclines as this
could cause the chair to tip in the direction of travel.
Lateral Stability
USERS MUST NOT lean over the edge of a Raz Mobile Shower
Commode Chair as this could cause the chair to tip.
USERS MUST NOT attempt to pick up objects from the floor by leaning
over andreaching –use a reacher or ask for assistance from anattendant.
USERS MUST NOT position the Raz Mobile Shower Commode Chair on
a side slope as this could cause it to tip.
Ramps and Other Inclines
Ramps and other surfaces that are not level (suchas slopes into wheel- in
showers) must be tested with an attendant to ensure that they don’t
compromise the chair’s stability. A qualified healthcare professional
should be consulted to assist with this process.
DO NOT push or pull the Raz-AT600 up or down an incline or ramp
that exceeds a 1:12 grade (5° slope).
DO NOT allowany userto be propelled (pushedor pulled) in a Raz-AT600
in any other manner than by an attendant.
ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE RAZ-AT600 IS STABLE BEFORE IT IS
OCCUPIED BY ANY USER AT ANY TIME.
Immersion
The Raz Mobile Shower Commode Chair is not designed to be
used as a pool chair. Do not immerse the shower chair in whole
or in part, in water or any other liquid. Immersion may result in
damage to the shower chair.
Chlorine Exposure
Suitable for use in wet areas, but not pools and similarly corrosive
environments.
DO NOT store the device near pools because chlorine in
the air will cause the device to rust.

Transfers
The most dangerous part of using any shower chair is the transfer. Since
every chair has different stability characteristics, it is essential to carefully
review and test the transfer technique to ensure that the procedureissafe.
Test transfers should beperformedwithan attendant who can prevent the
chair from tipping or moving during the transfer. If you feel that the
transfers cannot be repeatedly performed safely, contact a healthcare
professional who is familiar with transfer techniques and options.
Individuals who have not learned proper transfer skills must seek
assistance during transfers and may require the use of a mechanical lift.
Transferring onto a Raz-AT600
ALWAYS lock all four casters in an outward position (front casters
positioned in the forward position/rear casters positioned to the rear) for
maximum chair stability.
Transfers should never be attempted with the shower chair
positioned on slippery surfaces. It is recommended that transfers be
performed on clean, dry, non-slippery surfaces. Hard surface flooring
such as tile, wood or concrete may not provide sufficient grip to keep
locked casters and/or rear wheels from sliding. A fully-carpeted
surface is optimal. Be aware that area rugs and shower mats can slide on
floors and thereby present a hazardous surface.
DO NOT stand on any part of the frame of the Raz-AT600.
NEVER use the footplates to assist in transfers. This could cause the
chair to tip. The footrests should be swung to the side or removed entirely
during transfers to provide unobstructed access to the shower chair.
Tilt Function
ALWAYS check the tilt function and ensure both locking gas springs and release cable assemblies are
fully operational BEFORE the chair is occupied by the user.
A pelvic strap can act as an additional safeguard for the user. A pelvic support strap may be ordered as
an option with the Raz-AT600.
DO NOT attempt to tilt an occupant if the attendant is physically incapable of safely and smoothly
operating the tilt function.
NEVER leave the user unattended in a Raz-AT600.
The Raz-AT600 is NOT intended for use as a transportation device or a long-term seating system.

be significant detectable resistance when tightening. If not, replace
the nyloc nut with a new one. It is advisable to check annually that
all fasteners are secure.
