RACING CHAIR USER
As a manufacturer of racing chairs, Invacare Top End endeavors to supply a wide vari-
ety of racing chairs to meet many needs of the end user. However, final selection of the
type of racing chair to be used by an individual rests solely with the user and his/her
health care professional capable of making such a selection.
RACING CHAIR TIE-DOWN RESTRAINTS AND SEAT POSITIONING STRAPS
Invacare Top End recommends that racing chair users NOT be transported in vehicles of
any kind while in racing chairs. As of this date, the Department of Transportation has not
approved any tie-down systems for transportation of a user while in a racing chair, in a
moving vehicle of any type.
It is Invacare Top End’s position that users of racing chairs should be transferred into
appropriate seating in vehicles for transportation and use be made of the restraints
made available by the auto industry. Invacare Top End cannot and does not recom-
mend any racing chair transportation systems.
AS REGARDS RESTRAINTS - SEAT POSITIONING STRAPS - IT IS THE OBLIGATION OF THE DME
DEALER, THERAPISTS AND OTHER HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS TO DETERMINE IF A SEATING

Invacare Top End recommends Seat Positioning Straps. Not only to serve as protection
against a fall but also to insure minimal movement in the seat cage.
