ANTI-TIPPERS

 

 
Anti-tippers are standard with the X-power 10. Replacements for these parts are 
available through your authorized dealer. Anti-tipper prevent the powerchair from 
tipping backwards.  
 

PARTS

 

 
Special high strength fasteners are used on the powerchair. Replacements for these 
parts should be ordered through an authorized dealer. 
 
Warnings: 
Never stand on the footrests as it may cause the powerchair to tip over. 
 
Never lift the powerchair by the footrests. The footrests are removable and lifting 
the powerchair by the footrests could cause damage to the powerchair or possible 
injury to the owner. 
 
Never connect the battery charger to the main supply until after you have 
connected it to the powerchair. 
 
It is important to develop safe techniques before attempting to negtiote obstacles 
such as curbs, ramps and inlines. Never try to go up a steep incline without 
assistance. Avoid uneven and hilly terrain as the powerchair may tip over. Avoid 
grades steeper than 10% (1 foot rise in a ten foot distance) without assistance. 
 
Control your speed carefully when traveling downhill. Slow speeds should be used 
when travelling on downgrades. 
 
Do not use the ON/OFF switch to turn off the power to the powerchair while it is 
moving. This will cause the powerchair to come to an abrupt stop and may cause 
injury to the user or damage to the chair. 
 
Many powerchair controllers have been affected by high power radio transmitters, 
such as CB radios and cellular telephones. If any of these devices are being used 
near your powerchair, you should use caution in operation. If loss of control occurs, 
shut off your powerchair immediately and leave it off until the interfering devices 
are no longer operating. 
 
The user should be trained by a healthcare professional to assure safe operation of 
the powerchair during the performance of daily activities. 
 

WEIGHT LIMIT OF THE POWERCHAIR

 

 
Maximum weight limit should not exceed 100 kg.
