— Always shift your weight in the direction you are turning.
Shifting weight in the opposite direction of the turn may
compromise stability of the power wheelchair base,
causing it to tip over.
— Consider the seat cushion being used. A thick seat
cushion will raise your centre of gravity and reduce the
wheelchairs stability in all directions.
— All seating systems are equipped with drive lockouts.
Make certain this is set so as not to compromise your
stability while driving (refer to 2.2 Driving and Seating
Limitations (LiNX System), page 8).
— The wheelchair has a programmable controller which
allows adjustment of the maximum acceleration and
deceleration of the wheelchair. Make sure that these are
set to an appropriate level for the system and for you,
the user.
— When operating in reduced speed drive or anti-tipper
lockout, always travel on a smooth level surface to
ensure the wheelchair's stability is not compromised.
— Ensure all medical conditions are considered when
setting up your wheelchair. Involuntary muscle
movement such as spasms may affect the stability of the
wheelchair, especially when the seating system is in a
tilted or reclined position.
— When a system is fully tilted or reclined, the front
wheels of the wheelchair should never come off the
ground. If this occurs, please contact your authorised
Invacare dealer immediately to resolve the issue.
