WARNING
After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure all attaching hardware is tightened securely - otherwise
injury or damage may occur.
ALWAYS engage both hublocks and reduce the gap distance before transferring to and from the wheelchair. Turn all
casters parallel to the object you are transferring onto.
Hublocks are not brakes. DO NOT attempt to stop a moving wheelchair with the hublocks.
Users should be evaluated by a care provider to determine the suitability of the hub lock option. Repetitive uncontrolled
motion or spasms can result in damage to the hub lock system
Engaging the hublocks may not prevent the wheelchair from moving on all floor surfaces including those that may be wet or
slick. ALWAYS exercise caution when transferring into or out of your wheelchair.
Always keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts to avoid injury.
DO NOT sit or transfer into the wheelchair unless it is fully open and the seat frame rails are fully seated into the side
