health care advisor.

ability. Have someone help you until you know what can cause a fall or 
tip-over and how to avoid doing so.

suited to your level of function and ability.

4.

NEVER try a new maneuver on your own until you are sure you can 
do it safely.

5.

Get to know the areas where you plan to use your chair. Look for 
hazards and learn how to avoid them.

control may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.

wheelchair rider. However, final selection of the type of wheelchair, options and
adjustments rests solely with you and your health care advisor. Choosing the
best chair and set-up for your safety depends on such things as:

work, and other places you are likely to use your chair).
