Electrical - Invacare Lynx L-3X Owner's Operator And Maintenance Manual

SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES
Determine and establish your particular safety limits by practicing bending, reaching and
transferring activities in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional before
attempting active use of the powered scooter.
For individuals with balance problems, DO NOT attempt to transfer into or out of the
powered scooter without assistance. Practice transferring activities with an assistant in
the presence of a qualified healthcare professional.
Ensure that the seat is properly locked before use. Otherwise the user may fall from the
scooter resulting in bodily harm. Attempting unsafe transfers may cause the user to fall,
resulting in serious injury.
Ensure that the seat is locked in the forward position before and during the operation of
the scooter. Otherwise, injury to the user and/or damage to the scooter may result.
Ensure that the tiller is properly adjusted before driving the scooter.
After making any tiller angle adjustment and before use, the tiller must be securely locked
into position. Otherwise the user may fall from the scooter resulting in bodily harm and/
or damage to the scooter. Gently push/pull the tiller to ensure that the tiller is securely
engaged.
DO NOT overtighten hardware attaching to the frame. This could cause damage to the
frame tubing.
ALWAYS keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts to avoid injury.
ALWAYS check hand grips for looseness before using the powered scooter. If loose and/
or worn, replace immediately.
If scooter is exposed to extreme temperature (above 100°F or below 32°F), high humidity
and/or becomes wet, prior to use, ensure handgrips DO NOT twist on scooter handles.
Otherwise, damage or injury may occur.
Avoid storing or using the scooter near open flame or combustible products. Serious
injury or damage to property may result.
Never leave an unoccupied scooter on an incline.
ALWAYS use anti‐tippers. When outdoors on wet, soft ground or on gravel surfaces,
anti‐tippers may not provide the same level of protection against tip over. Extra caution
MUST be observed when traversing such surfaces.
