Managing Obstacles
You will need to successfully manage and navigate some obstacles in daily operation of your wheelchair. Know
the capabilities of your wheelchair as attempting to navigate objects incorrectly can create a dangerous
situation. Even small height changes maybe strike the wheel castor and cause the electric wheelchair to tilt or
rollover.
➢
Be mindful of doorsill heights and coverings and insure they can be successful navigated.
➢
When driving through doors, be careful and mindful of the area and others around you. Make sure the chair can safely pass
through the door.
➢
When you drive the electric wheelchair in reverse, extra precautions will be needed.
If the rear wheel hit an object, you could lose control or fall over.
➢
Always navigate your electric wheelchair at a safe slow speed.
Driving on a Slope
➢
On a slope, the center of gravity for the electric wheelchair will change.
➢
A slope may be a ramp or hillside. If you are not sure if the wheelchair is safe to
use on a slope, ask others for help.
➢
When the slope is more than 10°, please do not use the wheelchair.
➢
If the ramp is slippery, with snow, ice, water, or oil, do not use the ramp.
➢
If the bottom of the slope or ramp has small holes at the base of the slope,
do not use the ramp.
