Stability - All Models Except Recliners
WARNING
To maintain maximum stability, position the rear wheel axle mounting brackets in the most rearward position. Moving the
rear wheels to any of the other mounting positions causes the wheelchair to decrease in stability.
If moving the rear wheel axle mounting brackets to any forward position, ensure the wheelchair is stable before using.
ALWAYS ensure stability before using maximum amount of tilt-in-space or moving the rear wheel axle mounting brackets
forward. Test wheelchair before it is occupied by the end user to ensure safety.
Stability - Recliner Models Only
WARNING
Before using any recline position of this wheelchair, make sure the rear wheel axle mounting brackets are in the most
rearward position in the axle mounting plate to maintain the stability of the wheelchair. Do not change the handling/
maneuverability of the wheelchair by moving the rear wheel axle mounting brackets to any of the forward positions.
Moving the rear wheel axle mounting brackets to any of the forward positions will change the center of gravity of the
wheelchair, making the wheelchair less stable.
ALWAYS make sure that the wheelchair is stable both in the full reclined (back at 160°) position and the full upright (back
at 90°) position before using the recliner option.
Before using the recliner option, make sure the anti-tipper wheel assemblies are in the lowest adjustment hole (adjustment
hole closest to the ground/floor).
ALWAYS engage both wheel locks while reclining or inclining (sitting up) the wheelchair.
Both gas cylinders MUST be operational and adjusted properly before using the recliner. DO NOT operate the recliner
option if only one of the gas cylinders is operational or adjusted properly.
Make sure the patient is properly positioned in the wheelchair before reclining or inclining (sitting up) to maintain maximum
stability and safety.
