Warnings
Checks for use
Before every use, the user or attendant should check
the tyres are in good condition and inflated with
sufficient tread. They should also check the brake
operation. If any component is loose or a wheel or part
has abnormal play or the upholstery is worn or
damaged, do not use.
Outdoor Use
It is not recommended for a user with limited ability to
operate the wheelchair outdoors when alone. We
recommend that an attendant be present and
environmental conditions are taken in to account.
Additional hazards may be present if the ground is
uneven and when the surface is worn and unstable, or
when weather conditions cause rain, snow or ice.
Users should be particularly careful when operating on
gradients such as ramps, slopes or on kerbs as this can
cause instability.
