CHOOSING THE RIGHT CHAIR

®

Airgo  offers many wheelchair accessories, options and configurations to 
meet the needs of the individual user. However, the final selection of options, 
accessories and adjustments should be made together by you, with your 

® 

®

health care advisor and/or Airgo dealer. Selecting the best Airgo  wheelchair 
configuration depends on such things as:

1.

Your level of physical strength, balance and coordination.

2.

The types of hazards you must overcome in the environments 
in which you will use the wheelchair (home, work and other places 
you frequent regularly).

3.

The options needed for your comfort and safety.
