OPERATION
The aid of an attendant stabilizing the wheelchair is
recommended for optimum safety. Wheelchair pas-
sengers who intend to enter and exit the vehicle with-
out the assistance of an attendant must determine
the safest and most practical method and orientation
of entering and exiting based on the physical char-
acteristics of their personal wheelchair and his or her
physical capabilities to maintain stability while the
wheelchair is in motion on the ramp.
Wheelchair Attendants: When assisting a wheel-
chair occupant, remember to use good body mechan-
ics. When the wheelchair is on the ramp, the atten-
dant must grasp the push handles (or other) securely.
Detachable wheelchair parts such as arm or leg rests
must never be used for hand holds or lifting supports.
Doing so could result in the detachable parts being
inadvertently detached from the wheelchair resulting
in possible injury to the wheelchair occupant and/or
the attendant.
Wheelchair Orientation and Securement During
Transport: The wheelchair and occupant must face
the front of the vehicle and must be secured using
the Forward-Facing Wheelchair Tiedown and Oc-
cupant Restraint System when riding in the vehicle.
