1.0 SAFETY TIPS
1-1-1.
Standing up stresses your body in ways you may not be used to. Therefore
we recommend you consult your doctor or physical therapist before using the
standing wheelchair.
Check tyre pressure weekly (pneumatic tyres) , because it will affect the grip of the
wheel locks. Wheel locks are not designed to slow down the wheelchair when it is
moving. Wheel locks hold the wheelchair in place when it is at a complete stop.
Always set both wheel locks when entering or standing up or leaving the wheelchair.
Do not mount the quick release rear axles with the release button positioned inside
the frame. If the release button is inside the frame, the wheels will be released.
1-1-2.
Before using the standing wheelchair, it is absolutely vital that the
knee support, safety belt and chest belt are fixed correctly.

Making any unauthorized modifications or using parts not supplied by technical
personnel, may change the wheelchair structure and create an unsafe condition,
thus voiding the warranty.
