WARNING
● Do not use the wheelchair on a slope steeper
than 6 degree (10% grade). It may tip over or
the brake may become ineffective.
● When going up/down a particular slope for the
first time, have an assistant accompany you to
ensure safety.
1.5.7. Operation on Slopes
WARNING
● If it is raining or snowing, do not operate the
wheelchair outdoors. Automobiles and other
vehicles may collide into you if they cannot
recognize you. If it starts to rain or snow while
you are outdoors, move indoors as soon as
possible.
The wheelchairs equipped with the JWX-2 are built to be lighter compared to other heavier
electric wheelchairs that use a general lead battery. For this reason, when a person sits in it,
the overall center of gravity shifts higher. Therefore, caution is necessary when traveling on
a slope.
