Risk of Injury, Damage or Death
Loss of traction or stability on inclines/grades or ramps may cause injury, damage or
death. Lighter weight users may be at an increased risk. Surfaces that may be wet,
icy, oily, slippery, painted, treated wood, rotten wood, rusted metal or other similar
surfaces or materials may also increase risk.
– DO NOT use on inclines or ramps where surface is uncertain or compromised.
– DO NOT use on inclines greater than nine (9) degrees.
– DO NOT operate the seating system while the wheelchair is moving. Stop before
operating seating system.
– DO NOT operate the seating system while on an incline. Operation on an incline
may result in increased instability.
– To determine and establish your particular safety limits, practice use of this
product on various sloping surfaces in the presence of a qualified healthcare
provider before attempting active use of this wheelchair.
– DO NOT use on inclines where line of sight is impaired.
– Travel at a reduced, constant speed and DO NOT make sudden stops or direction
changes. Release the joystick and allow the wheelchair to come to a full stop before
changing directions. Traveling at high speeds reduces traction and increases
stopping distance.
– DO NOT drive in an elevated position while on an incline.
– DO NOT leave elevating legrests in the fully extended position when proceeding
down inclines/grades.
– DO NOT leave an unoccupied wheelchair unattended on inclines or ramps.
Risk of Injury or Damage
Misuse of motor locks may result in injury or damage.
DO NOT engage or disengage the motor locks until the power is in the off position.
NOTE: DO NOT attempt to lift the wheelchair by any removable (detachable) parts. Lifting by
means of any removable (detachable) parts of a wheelchair may result in injury to the user or
damage to the wheelchair.
