● While operating the wheelchair, be careful not to
get your hands tangled in the wheel spokes, wheel
holes, etc.
1.5.4. Getting In/Out of the Wheelchair, Seating
● When getting in the wheelchair by yourself or
when the assistant has the user of the wheelchair
get in the wheelchair, ensure that the wheelchair
is on a level ground. If the user attempts to get in
the wheelchair on an incline, he or she may lose
balance and fall off the wheelchair.
● To switch the clutch levers to the manual position, such as when starting assistant
operations, apply the parking brakes on a level and stable ground, and then with the power
turned off, switch the clutch levers.
● If you are using a wheelchair with no parking brakes, have the assistant hold the wheelchair
to ensure that it does not move. Failure to observe the above may cause the wheelchair to
start moving unexpectedly, and may result in you or other people around you to get injured.
● Do not lean out of the wheelchair to retrieve an item. Otherwise, you could fall off the
wheelchair or the wheelchair could tip over.
