Use and Safety:
To Open Chair
-
Open wheelchair by tilting to one
side and pushing downward on the seat rail/tubing
until fully open. Make sure the seat tubing rests
completely inside the seat cradles.
To Close/Fold Chair- Fold footplates to the vertical
position. Hold center of seat upholstery with both
hands at the front and back edge and lift up, or tilt
chair to one side and lift up on the seat rail.
Wheel Locks-Engage the wheel locks on both
wheels before entering the chair, leaving the chair,
leaning forward in the chair, or while being
transported in an elevator or a wheelchair lift. .
Check to make sure that the legrests do not unlock
the wheel locks when they are swung back.
When adjusted correctly, the wheel lock shoe
should be embedded into the tire at least 1/8" when
engaged in the locked position. To adjust locks,
loosen the nut on the carriage bolt. Slide the clamp
toward/away from the rear wheel until the lock shoe
is embedded at least 1/8 inch into the tire when the
handle is engaged in the locked position. Tighten
the nut and bolt to secure in position. Inspect for
correct locking action BEFORE actual use.
