Invacare® Solara®3G/Spree 3G Wheelchair
48
4.10 Operating Hublocks
WARNING
ALWAYS engage both hublocks and reduce the gap distance before transferring to and from the wheelchair. Turn all
casters parallel to the object you are transferring onto.
Hublocks are not brakes. DO NOT attempt to stop a moving wheelchair with the hublocks.
Users should be evaluated by a care provider to determine the suitability of the hub lock option. Repetitive uncontrolled
motion or spasms can result in damage to the hub lock system
Engaging the hublocks may not prevent the wheelchair from moving on all floor surfaces including those that may be wet or
slick. ALWAYS exercise caution when transferring into or out of your wheelchair.
Always keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts to avoid injury.
If hublocks do not engage properly (wheels move while hublocks are locked) or do not disengage properly contact a
qualified technician.
