Always read and strictly follow the warnings and cautions listed on this page. Service only by qualified personnel.
WWAARRNNIINNGG
• Always apply the brake when an occupant is getting in the product or out of the product to avoid instability.
• Do not overload the product above the safe working load of 500 lb (226.8 kg).
• Do not allow the occupant to lean outside of the perimeter of the product to avoid tipping.
• Do not use the product on ramps or slopes that are greater than 5.7 degrees to avoid instability.
• Do not lift the product or lower the product while occupied.
• Always properly secure the oxygen bottle to the oxygen bottle holder before moving the product.
• Do not activate the leg rest release latch with an occupant’s leg on the leg rest.
CCAAUUTTIIOONN
• Improper usage of the product can cause injury to the occupant or operator. Operate the product only as described in
this manual.
• Do not modify the product or any components of the product. Modifying the product can cause unpredictable operation
resulting in injury to occupant or operator. Modifying the product also voids its warranty.
• Always apply the brake to prevent unintended movement.
• Do not apply the brake pedal to stop a moving product.
• Do not place car seats, infant carriers, or other objects on the product seat or on the occupant's lap.
• Always keep occupant extremities and operator extremities away from the flip-up armrest when raising or lowering the
armrest to avoid the risk of pinching.
• Do not hang items on the push handles, chart holder, optional oxygen bottle holder, or flip-up armrests to avoid
instability.
• Always clear the path of the swing-away footrests before activation to avoid entrapment.
• Do not sit, stand, or lean on the flip-up armrests, footrest, leg rest, or seat back to avoid instability.
• Do not use the flip-up armrests, chart holder, optional oxygen bottle holder, or the optional IV pole as a push or pull
device.
• Always clear fingers from the armrest release latch before releasing the latch to avoid the risk of pinching.
• Always transport the occupant with their feet on the footrests.
• Always avoid the pinch point between the flip-up armrest, seat back, and seat when repositioning the flip-up armrest.
The flip-up armrest should remain down (in the forward position) when the chair is occupied and should only be in the
stowed position to assist with getting in the product or getting out of the product.
• Do not put items weighing more than 6 lb (2.72 kg) in the chart holder.
• Do not roll the product on the anti-tip wheels.
• Do not transport with more than one occupant in the product to avoid instability.
EN 2 1460-109-001 Rev B.1

• Always carefully transport the product over thresholds and small ledges to make sure that the wheels roll smoothly and
the product is stable.
• Always keep occupant extremities and operator extremities away from the flip-up armrest when raising the armrest or
lowering the armrest to avoid the risk of pinching.
• Do not operate the product on soft or unstable surfaces, such as sand, grass, or gravel, to avoid instability or difficult
mobility.
• Always use safe lifting techniques with two operators when lifting the empty product over a barrier. Lift the product by the
main frame tubes only. Do not lift the product by the armrests, footrests, accessories, or seating surfaces.
• The optional oxygen bottle holder is designed for type E class oxygen bottles only.

• Do not steam clean the product.
• Always make sure that all labels are intact, brake pedal and go pedal lock properly in both positions, and check all
components for proper lubrication before you return the product to service after cleaning.
• Always make sure that you wipe each product with clean water and thoroughly dry each product after cleaning. Some
cleaning products are corrosive in nature and may cause damage to the product if you use them improperly. If you do
not properly rinse and dry the product, a corrosive residue may be left on the surface of the product that could cause
premature corrosion of critical components. Failure to follow these cleaning instructions may void your warranty.

The Stryker Model 1460 PPrriimmee TTCC® is a manual, operator-propelled chair that is designed to transport occupants in the
seated position with their associated medical equipment (such as an oxygen bottle, IV fluid bags, or a foley catheter bag).
The product is equipped with a brake mechanism that immobilizes the rear wheels for increased stability and assists with
occupant entry and exit.
IInntteennddeedd uussee
PPrriimmee TTCC is a transport chair that is intended for medical purposes to assist a person in performing an activity that the
person would find difficult to do or be unable to do. PPrriimmee TTCC is intended for occupants who have the ability to hold
themselves in an upright, seated position, unassisted, and in compliance with facility guidelines for transporting.
Expected use of PPrriimmee TTCC is to support the occupant in an upright, seated position with their back against the seat back
and their feet and arms on the provided resting surfaces. For transport, the operator pushes the chair from behind by
gripping the provided handles. Users should not sit on the arms, stand upright on any surface, or lean on the arms or seat
back from a standing position. Intended operators include healthcare transporters (escorts), nurses, other healthcare
professionals, family members, and individuals who accompany the occupant.
PPrriimmee TTCC is intended for use inside healthcare facilities and outside healthcare facilities, and in adjacent locations,
including parking lots. Transport activity includes curbside admissions and discharge, interdepartmental and
intradepartmental transport, and transport in elevators. PPrriimmee TTCC has a safe working load of 500 lb (226.8 kg), including
occupant and accessories. The typical duration of use can vary from several minutes to up to an hour. However, occupant
wait time for certain events (for example, awaiting CT scan, MRI scan, or an X-ray) may exceed an hour.
