Operator Training Manual Basic Information
Purpose of WheelChair Mover:
The task of transporting wheelchairs around medical facilities is a job that can be time
consuming, monotonous and expose employees to injuries such as sprains and strains.
The WheelChair Mover is a battery powered machine that assists in the transporting of
wheelchairs. By utilizing the WheelChair Mover, the transport process becomes more
efficient, enjoyable and greatly reduces the physical effort.
Training:
Training is an important way of making sure all employees understand how the
WheelChair Mover operates and how to use it to transport wheelchairs around the
workplace.
Training Guide:
The Training Guide, which follows, is designed to provide a step-by-step approach to
presenting a WheelChair Mover Operator Training and Certification Program for
employees. This guide will aid you in training employees on the proper operation of the
WheelChair Mover.
Operator Requirements:
Those employees who may be expected to operate the WheelChair Mover must be
trained and authorized to operate it before being permitted to use it. Successful
completion of the training program and quiz is one of the steps to qualify as being
trained and authorized.

of the WheelChair Mover be 18 years old or older.
Any employee involved in an accident or injury involving the WheelChair Mover

There are several different ways we can learn. Some people learn quickly from reading
while others may require hands on training and/or more time and attention. Take the
time to answer all questions and clarify the material.
Training Documentation:
The Operator Training Program includes a Quiz and Performance Skills Certification.
Those employees who successfully pass both of these sections may be permitted to
operate the WheelChair Mover pending the safety policy of your facility. Copies of this
documentation are to be kept in the employee’s personnel file/training file.
