Packing, Handling and identification.
For protection during transit your manual wheelchair
is packed in a polythene bag, or a cardboard
carton when requested, together with the User Guidance Information. The packaged manual
wheelchair contents weigh approximately 20 Kg. Care should always be taken when handling.
Each wheelchair has its own specific identification code (serial number), which is on a label at the
back of the chair and on the outside on any packaging. This code should also be noted on the
Wheelchair Service Record included in the information package supplied with the product. Take
care that all information supplied is kept in a safe place for your future reference, with the Service
Record available for the Approved Distributor to endorse at the recommended service interval.
Other cautionary information labels secured to the wheelchair are reminders for the user, not to be
