SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS TO CONSIDER FOR RETAIL PURPOSES
Forward Stability
The front 5” casters on all models are equipped with dual locks. The step-on lever activates
both the roll lock and the swivel lock.
It is essential that the front casters be in the forward
and outward position before engaging the locks for optimum forward and lateral
stability.
USERS MAY NOT
lean forward as this may cause the chair to tip forward.
USERS MAY NOT
wheel down a ramp (SP, SPHD models) without an attendant who can hold
onto the chair during the descent.
WHEEL LOCKS ARE NOT BRAKES! Never allow use of the wheel locks to slow down
the commode when descending inclines as this could cause the chair to tip in the
direction of travel.
Lateral Stability
USERS MAY NOT
lean over the edge of a Raz Shower Chair as this could cause the chair to tip.
USERS MAY NOT
attempt to pick up objects from the floor by leaning over and reaching – a
reacher or assistance from others should be employed
.
USERS MAY NOT
position the Shower Chair on a side slope as this could cause it to tip.
