Operating Instructions
To determine and establish your particular safety limits, practice bending, reaching
and transferring activities in several combinations in the presence of a qualified
health professional before attempting active use of the Shopper Wheelchair Walker.
ALWAYS check hand grips for looseness before using the Shopper Wheelchair
Walker. If loose and/or worn, replace immediately.
If the Shopper Wheelchair Walker is exposed to extreme temperature (above 38°C or
below 0°C), high humidity and/or becomes wet, prior to use, ensure hand grips DO
NOT twist on the Shopper Wheelchair Walker handle—otherwise damage or injury
may occur.
DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat as this may
tip the wheelchair.
DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to pick them up from the floor by
reaching down between your knees as this may tip the wheelchair.
DO NOT lean over the top of the back upholstery to reach objects behind you, as this
may tip the wheelchair.
DO NOT shift your weight or sitting position toward the direction you are reaching, as
this may tip the wheelchair.
DO NOT tilt the Shopper Wheelchair Walker without assistance.
DO NOT use an escalator to move a wheelchair between floors—serious injury may
occur.
NEVER leave an unoccupied Shopper Wheelchair Walker on an incline.
DO NOT attempt to stop a moving Shopper Wheelchair Walker with the wheel locks.
Wheel locks are not brakes.
Before attempting to transfer in or out of the Shopper Wheelchair Walker, every
precaution should be taken to reduce the gap distance. Turn both castors parallel to
the object you are transferring onto. When transferring to and from the Shopper
Wheelchair Walker, ALWAYS lock both hand brakes (locks) before transferring to and
from the Shopper Wheelchair Walker.
DO NOT sit or transfer into the Shopper Wheelchair Walker unless it is fully open.
DO NOT operate on roads, streets or highways.
DO NOT climb, go up or down ramps or traverse slopes greater than 9°.
DO NOT attempt to move up or down an incline which has a film of water, ice or oil
on it.
DO NOT attempt to ride over kerbs or obstacles. Doing so may cause your Shopper
Wheelchair Walker to tip, causing bodily harm or damage to the wheelchair.
DO NOT over tighten hardware attaching to the frame. This could cause damage to
the frame tubing.
