Intended Use
The
CGX™
manual wheelchair has been designed to provide mobility and
comfort for persons with impaired mobility.
The wheelchair has been designed to be used by a seated user with a carer/
attendant in both indoor and outdoor environments.
The wheelchair has, in its standard format, been designed to accomodate
users who weigh up to a maximum weight of 90kg on a chair width from 10” to
18”, and 136kg on a chair width from 18” to 22”, have all limbs intact and have
sufficent upper body strength to maintain a safe position within the wheelchair
without the addition of supporting aids.
Adaptations from the standard wheelchair format are available to
accommodate users who do not meet the above criteria but these will only be
considered after a suitable risk assessment has been carried out by the product
prescriber. For example, a user with either a full or partial amputation or other
condition, which affects the natural centre of gravity will need to have a stability
evaluation to minimize the risk of inadvertent tipping.
The wheelchair should only be used in accordance with the safety advice given
within this user guide. Failure to follow the recommended advice within this user
guide could lead to personal injury.
No claims are made that the product will medically improve the circumstances
or condition of the user.
