WARNING!
Risk of Injury, Damage or Death
Loss of traction or stability on inclines/grades
or ramps may cause injury, damage or death.
Lighter weight users may be at an increased
risk. Surfaces that may be wet, icy, oily, slippery,
painted, treated wood, rotten wood, rusted metal
or other similar surfaces or materials may also
increase risk.
– DO NOT use on inclines or ramps where surface
is uncertain or compromised.
– DO NOT use on inclines greater than nine (9)
degrees.
– DO NOT operate the seating system while on
an incline. Operation on an incline may result
in increased instability.
– To determine and establish your particular
safety limits, practice use of this product on
various sloping surfaces in the presence of a
qualified healthcare provider before attempting
active use of this wheelchair.
– DO NOT use on inclines where line of sight is
impaired.
– Travel at a reduced, constant speed and DO
NOT make sudden stops or direction changes.
Release the joystick and allow the wheelchair to
come to a full stop before changing directions.
Traveling at high speeds reduces traction and
increases stopping distance.
