SECTION 6—FRONT RIGGINGS
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure that all
attaching hardware is tightened securely - otherwise injury or damage may result.
For the following procedures, make sure the On/Off switch on the joystick is in the
OFF position.
DO NOT stand on the flip-up footboard. When getting in or out of the wheelchair,
make sure that the flip-up footboard is in the upward position.
PINCH POINT EXISTS BETWEEN CENTER MOUNT FOOTREST AND
CASTERS - There is limited clearance between center mount footrest and casters.
The user's feet MUST remain on the center mount footrest while operating the
wheelchair. If the user's feet are allowed to rest off the side of the center mount
footrest they may come in contact with the caster possibly resulting in injury.
While the wheelchair is moving, minimum ground clearance for the front rigging is
three inches. If the wheelchair is not moving, the front rigging MUST maintain a
minimum of one inch ground clearance - otherwise personal injury and damage may
result.
