14.4 Danger of pinching
User
Special care has been taken to make sure that the chance that the user
pinches him or herself while seated in the wheelchair is minimal. However,
there are few situations that might lead to injury. Special caution has to be
taken under the following circumstances;
⚫
When the tray table is closed, pinching of fingers or other body parts is
possible between the locking parts.
⚫
When the revolving control unit is used in the tray table, pinching of
fingers or other body parts is possible when the control unit is being
turned upside down.
⚫
When adjusting the seat while the user is sitting in the chair, please note
that no body parts are in the direct zone of the moving parts.
When moving the seat down, the tilt frame comes very close to the top
chassis cover. This creates a pinching danger, when at this time, hands are
on the top cover at the rear end of the chassis. For this reason a warming
decal is placed on the top cover on the rear of the chassis.
We advise you to always keep your hands or the hands from other persons
away from the rear end of the top chassis cover.
All areas where there might be a risk of pinching are indicated by these
warning decal:
