WARNING!
Risk of Tipping
The power wheelchair may tip over when you
change its stability characteristics by changing
your seating position.
-Determine and establish your personal safety limits
by practicing bending, reaching and transferring
activities in the presence of a qualified healthcare
professional before attempting active use of the
wheelchair.
-Your seating system can be mounted onto the base in
various forward and aft positions. Make certain that
the position selected provides you with maximum
stability over the full range of seating positions.
-Consider all personal gear and accessories
(backpacks, vent systems, extra batteries, etc.) that
will be carried on the wheelchair. For example, a
loaded backpack, attached to the back of the seating
system, can significantly reduce the rearward stability
of your wheelchair.
WARNING!
Risk of Tipping (Continued)
The power wheelchair may tip over when you
change its stability characteristics by changing
your seating position.
-Always shift your weight in the direction you are
turning. Shifting weight in the opposite direction of
the turn may compromise stability of the wheelchair
base, causing it to tip over.
-All systems are equipped with drive lockouts. Make
certain this is set so as not to compromise your
stability while driving (refer to SafetyLockout_
LimitSwitch_60101876_0000133864.htm).
-The wheelchair has a programmable controller
which allows adjustment of the maximum
acceleration and deceleration of the wheelchair.
Make sure that these are set to an appropriate level
for the system and for you, the user.
-When operating in reduced speed drive, always
travel on a smooth level surface to ensure the
wheelchair’s stability is not compromised.
-Ensure all medical conditions are considered when
setting up your wheelchair. Involuntary muscle
movement such as spasms may affect the stability of
the wheelchair.
