Reaching, Leaning and Bending - Forward
When reaching for any objects either in front, to the side or
behind your wheelchair make sure that you do not lean too
far out of your wheelchair, as this will change your centre of
gravity, and there is a risk of tipping or losing your balance.
The hanging of additional loads such as a laptop bag
or back pack on your backrest can affect the rearward
stability of your chair. This can cause your wheelchair to
lift at the front and the chair to tip backwards, potentially
causing injury or property damage.
WARNING
User Manual | Handling of Wheelchairs
DANGER!
DO NOT use an escalator to move a wheelchair between
floors as this could cause serious personal injury or
property damage.
Transferring to and from other seats
WARNING:
BEFORE attempting to transfer in or out of the wheelchair,
every precaution should be taken to reduce the gap
distance. Turn both castors toward the object you are
transferring onto. See Fig 6. Also be certain the wheel locks
are engaged to help prevent the wheels from moving.
Fig 6
CAUTION:!
When transferring, position yourself as far back as possible
in the seat. This will prevent damaged upholstery and the
possibility of the chair tipping forward.
WARNING:
Do not stand on footplate during transfer.
