Safety
WARNING!
–
The seat positioning strap is a positioning belt only. It
is not designed for use as a safety device withstanding
high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts.
If signs of wear appear, belt MUST be replaced
IMMEDIATELY. SERIOUS INJURY CAN OCCUR IN
THE EVENT OF A FALL FROM THE PRODUCT.
–
Because Top End wheelchairs are made to the
specification of the original owner, it is unlikely that
refurbished product would be suitable to another
user’s needs.
–
Always use the handrims for self-propulsion. Inasmuch
as the handrims are an option on this wheelchair (you
may order with or without the handrims), Invacare
strongly recommends ordering the handrims as an
additional safeguard for the wheelchair user.
–
DO NOT use the footplate as a platform when getting
in or out of the wheelchair.
–
Ensure the occupant’s legs and feet are properly
secured during use. When transferring the occupant,
ensure the feet do not slip between the tubes on the
footrest.
Tire Pressure and Information
–
DO NOT use your wheelchair unless it has the proper
tire pressure (p.s.i.). DO NOT overinflate the tires.
Failure to follow these suggestions may cause the tire
to explode and cause bodily harm. The recommended
tire pressure is on the sidewall of the tire.
–
Replacement of the tire or tube MUST be performed
by a qualified technician.
WARNING!
Weight Training
–
Invacare DOES NOT recommend the use of its
wheelchairs as a weight training apparatus. Invacare
wheelchairs have not been designed or tested as a seat
for any kind of weight training. If occupant uses said
wheelchair as a weight training apparatus, Invacare
shall not be liable for bodily injury and the warranty
is void.
