1.1.1 Leaning forward
Do not extend your chest over the armrest (figure 4).
In order to reach an object in front of you, you must lean and
bend down ; therefore, you must use the castors as a tool
(pointing them forward) to maintain stability and balance.An
accurate alignment of the wheels is essential for your safety
(figure 5).

1.1.2 Leaning backward
Position the wheelchair as close as possible to the desired
object so that you can simply pick it up by stretching your
arm while sitting in the chair in a normal position. In any case,
do not lean backwards because you may cause the chair to
tip (figures 6 and 7).
