SAFETY WARNINGS TO CONSIDER FOR USER PURPOSES

 

 

 

Forward Stability

 

The casters on all models are equipped with dual locks. The step-on 
lever activates both the roll lock and the swivel lock. 

It is essential 

that all casters on the shower chair be in an outward position 
before engaging the locks for optimal forward and lateral stability. 

If so equipped, disengage the optional directional caster lock before 
rotating the rear caster to the rearward position and applying the 
caste

r’s dual-locks. 

 

USERS MUST NOT 

lean forward while sitting in the Raz Shower Chair 

as this may cause the chair to tip forward. 

 
USERS MUST NOT 

wheel down a ramp without an attendant who can 

hold onto the chair during the descent. 

 
CASTER  LOCKS  ARE  NOT  BRAKES!  Never  use  caster  locks  to 
slow  down  the  shower  chair  when  descending  inclines  as  this 
could cause the chair to tip in the direction of travel.

 

 

Lateral Stability

 

USERS MUST NOT 

lean over the edge of a Raz Shower Chair as this 

could cause the chair to tip. 

 
USERS MUST NOT 

attempt to pick up objects from the floor by leaning 

over and reaching 

– a reacher or assistance from others should be 

employed

.
