SAFETY
General Guidelines
Do not operate your new power chair for the first time
without completely reading and understanding this
owner’s manual.
Your power chair is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement
device designed to increase mobility. We provide an extensive
variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the
power chair user. Please be aware that the final selection
and purchasing decision regarding the type of power chair
to be used is the responsibility of the power chair user, who
is capable of making such a decision, and his/her healthcare
professional (i.e., medical doctor, physical therapist, etc.).
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation
that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the power
chair to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare
professional and/or the Quantum Rehab Provider in the
instruction process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical
conditions, where the power chair user will need to practice
operating the power chair in the presence of a trained
attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family
member or care professional specially trained in assisting a
power chair user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your power chair during daily activities, you
will probably encounter situations in which you will need some
practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and
confident control as you maneuver through doorways, on and
off of elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety
considerations that will help you become accustomed to
operating your power chair safely.
Pre-Ride Safety Check
Get to know the feel of your power chair and its capabilities. We
recommend that you perform a safety check before each use
to make sure your power chair operates smoothly and safely.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your
power chair:
„
Check for proper tire inflation. Maintain but do not exceed
the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on each tire
if equipped with pneumatic tires.
„
Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are
tight and not corroded.
